| crownebeach | 2 | Was my original pick for No. 1, before whatever the hell it was Georgia just did. I am not worried about the offense. I think Ryan Day made an executive decision to try to win this game gritty and ugly, just to prove that they could, and they can. A very good Notre Dame offensive line was absolutely powerless in the run game. Ohio State has a top-25 returning production grade on top of a phenomenal talent grade and they're going to be nearly unstoppable. |
| DarkLegend64 | 2 | Defense definitely looks improved and picked up a solid win over a good ND team. |

| Our-Gardian-Angel | 2 | Week 1: Ohio State 21, Notre Dame 10 Record: 1-0 With one game in under defensive coordinator Jim Knowles, the Ohio State defense looks noticeably improved. We'll see how it plays out with a greater sample size, but a solid defense paired with Ryan Day's offenses might be what finally gets the Buckeyes another national championship. |

| e8odie | 3 | |
| eclectic_tastes | 3 | My doubts about Stroud's consistency weren't helped on Saturday, but with our run blocking and defense looking great, this team has a VERY high ceiling if the offense can hit its stride. |
| EpicSchwinn | 3 | As far as Bucks games won while being fully in control, they were relatively out of control. Nonetheless, they beat a good Notre Dame team and showed some good adjustment in the second half. That’ll take them far, perhaps even to another playoff. Who’d’ve thunk it? |

| IceColdDrPepper_Here | 3 | Ohio State put on an impressive display of defense and ground game, especially in the second half, against a very good Notre Dame team. Jaxon Smith-Njigba's injury hopefully isn't serious, but otherwise a good game from the Buckeyes, though I do see room for improvement |

| kamiller2020 | 3 | Well....the defense is better. That's what I'm choosing to take out of this game. If the defense plays this well than they'll win a national title to compliment their offense. The offense looked out of rhythm the whole night. JSN went down early so that hurt, and some young WRs stepped up. But separation down field was rare and the running game was spotty. Let's talk on September 25th. |

| ShamusJohnson13 | 5 | Color me unimpressed. Is Notre Dame good? Yes. That doesn't mean 21 points from a guy everyone was hyping up for the Heisman is what we should be championing. I'm going to say it: This Ohio State squad isn't going to the Natty. Not with play like this. With play like this, they're going to be beaten twice or more during the regular season. I'm going to highlight the Wisconsin and Michigan State games now. If Ohio State loses either of those games, stick a fork in their ambitions officially. |

| Beck4ou | 3 | Up from #4. Didn't cover the spread and looked sloppy, but still beat a top 10 team by double digits. Defense was much improved but while the offense had moments of brilliance it was more inconsistent that we are accustomed to, though, that may just be because of how good the Irish defense is. |
