MADBuc49 2 +0. Not overreacting to loss - close loss to #1 on the road and a close loss to the biggest rival is more than other teams such as Georgia can say. Would be the #5 playoff seed in this scenario, hosting #12 Boise State in the first round

Ch-i-ef 7 Despite the outcome, everything is ahead of you. This is still an immensely talented roster, but it is held back by poor coaching issues. Chip Kelly, known very well for always trying to establish the run, called a game outside of a psych ward. Why play to your strengths of throwing and attacking the perimeter when you can run a bunch against a make-shift offensive line against literally Michigan's only strength, with 2 first-round Defensive Tackles?

bretticus33 8 I'm so glad people are finally realizing Ryan Day's seat has been hot this entire time. $20 million spend on the roster, millions more to get Chip Kelly to call plays, and the worst Michigan team in the last 5+ years, and Day STILL can't beat Michigan. Turns out the guy born on 3rd isn't that good of a coach.

Due_Connection179 8 Ranking Ohio State at #8 is just a gut feeling for being #10 Indiana earlier. The "worst case" for Ohio State is that the committee thinks that Tennessee deserves the home game over Ohio State after the loss to Michigan, but I feel like either way they will be either #8 or #9 for the 1st round.

Blazemaster77 3 LW: 2. I think they have enough quality wins still to justify this rankings. I feel like the 2-3 teams are tied. I think if they swapped schedules, they'd probably have the same record. 2 top 10 wins, best loss in the country. 2nd loss isn't good, but they still beat PSU on the road and have more ranked wins than Texas. I keep swapping them with UGA while writing this so I don't even know where they'll be ranked.
ChBass 3 Losing to Oregon hurts as much as beating Nebraska helps. Losing to Michigan? That cancels our the wins against Nebraska and Penn State. Despite Michigan, they've still outperformed and would be ranked #1 if losses didn't matter... but they do.
FrontRunner51 3 Still the only team in my rankings with two top-10 wins (PSU, Indiana), so they don't fall much

I'm ok with losing but at least try to win instead of just giving up at halftime.

quantum_jedi 5 (-3) Well that was probably the worst possible outcome for the Buckeyes... Ohio State will likely make the CFP regardless of the outcome of The Game, but no B1G Championship and another loss to Michigan bodes poorly for Ryan Day.

hurricaneatx 6 (10-2) - ✅ 𝗣𝗹𝗮𝘆𝗼𝗳𝗳 𝗣𝗶𝗰𝗸 - Ohio State was demonstrably better than Indiana, and followed that up with an absolutely dismal performance at home against Michigan that has ignited Ryan Day's coaching seat among the Buckeye faithful. Despite losing to a very milquetoast Michigan squad, I can't drop Ohio State very far - as much as I'd like to - given that they do have wins at Penn State and Indiana on their resume. The extra loss made me consider whether I want to drop Ohio State below Indiana, but the strong and very recent head-to-head over the Hoosiers gives them a backsplash. The strong wins should buoy Ohio State into the playoffs. Quality wins: @Penn State, Indiana

The_Good_General 8 10–2; L vs Michigan
thealbinotitan1 8 Ryan Day has said “losing to Michigan is the second worst thing to happen to me. “ unfortunately for Ryan Day that streak’s gonna continue with the worst loss to Michigan of his tenure arguably of the entire history of the rivalry, but Ohio State’s inability to move the ball and inability to stop the run against a team that is unable to throw the football has proven that Ohio State really isn’t as top-tier of a program as they look. Now that they can’t win the Big Ten their seniors only hope is to win a playoff game to finally get an accomplishment in their four years.

big_thunder_man 9 [10-2] Lost to Michigan. Look, I'm not mad that Chip Kelly has infected Ohio State with his lethargic, run heavy and short passing offense, but I am disappointed. And it feels like Ryan Day is losing the program? The vibes are off. Not playing the B1G championship is the best thing that has happened to this team.
