I am afraid it is too little too late for the Buckeyes. One can come up with scenarios where State grabs the fourth playoff spot, but I for one would be happy with a BIG championship and a NY6 bowl bid. Even if Wisconsin wins out, they will need chaos to sneak them into the CFP. The BIG 10 has lost a lot of the respect that OSU earned for the conference in 2014.

I'm with you Omega, I believe it is too late for the Buckeyes. I'm a diehard Buckeye fan, but I'm not one of the people that think there is still a chance. Of course, anything can happen, getting late in the season, chaos naturally happens. I would be very happy with a B1G Championship and a New Years 6 game.

I still think they got a chance, but it is a loooong shot! A lot of things have to happen, but crazy things have happened before. I remember years ago when they lost very late in the year to Illinois when only two teams got in and everybody thought well that's it they are done! Then chaos happened the last week and bam they are in the championship game!
