COLUMBUS, Ohio (WCMH) — Ohio State is still in a position to make the four-team College Football Playoff in three weeks, but it’s no longer No. 1.
The Buckeyes (10-0, 7-0) fell out of the No. 1 spot for the first time this season, landing this week at No. 2 with Georgia jumping from No. 2 to take the top spot. All four teams won in Week 11 with OSU beating Michigan State 38-3, Georgia taking down Ole Miss, Michigan earning a momentous win over Penn State, and Florida State edging Miami.
If the season ended today, the Buckeyes would play Michigan in a semifinal. The semifinals will be played on New Year’s Day 2024 at the Rose Bowl and Sugar Bowl. The national championship game will be on Jan. 8 in Houston.
