Doogitywoogity 1 Defense looks great, huge win over texas. I’m definitely overreacting by dropping tu out all the way but they will (hopefully not) bounce back and find themselves ranked again. Regardless Ohio State is the far and away favorite to win it all and should be considered such until proven otherwise.

Charlemagne42 6 While they did beat a ranked team, Sayin's offense did not impress. Their opponent's mistakes kept their score low, not Ohio State's defense. That makes it hard to give Ohio State a big boost from where they already were. If they belong, they'll keep winning while others above don't.

thatoneguyD13 1 Tier 1. Excellent defensive performance and the offensive pieces are there. The Death Star should be fully operational by the time they play anyone else who's any good.

throwaway_6786 1 Pretty obvious. I really should've had them preseason #1 on account of being the defending champs, but after beating Texas, they're the only legitimate choice for #1 right now in my opinion.

BeyondLiesTheWub 13 -12. Interesting that it's penalizing OSU a lot more than Texas - to be fair, as bad as Arch played this game shouldn't have been as close as it was. In Columbus a top 10 OSU team should win by more than 7.
