Ohio State's Undefeated Season Secures Top Playoff Seed

Ohio States Undefeated Season Sets Stage for College Football Playoff Run Ohio State Buckeyes have secured an undefeated regular season, a feat not achieved since 2019 and 2020. With a 12-0 record, they are strong contenders for a return to the College Football Playoff, likely as a top seed. Holding the number one spot in the selection committees rankings for a month, they are one of only two undefeated teams left in the Football Bowl Subdivision. Their dominance is evident, winning most games by double-digit margins, including a victory over Michigan. Last year, they were seeded eighth with two losses. This year, a win in the Big Ten championship game could secure them as the sole undefeated team and top seed. Even if they dont top the rankings, a first-round bye is likely. The College Football Playoff bracket and final rankings will be revealed on December 7th.
