I feel sorry for both. They are the number 3 and number 2 teams in the country, but by one of them losing today, they will drop out of the top 4 playoff system.
Which really makes no sense when you think about it. If it's a close game won by one point with a 53-yard field goal at the end by Ohio State as time expires, it would PROVE that these teams ARE number 2 and 3 in the country and so their rank should not change.
But teams 5-8 are just waiting to move up when one of them loses. Even if they tied, they'd probably both leave the top 4. The system is now rigged.
Which shows this new way of doing it is far WORSE than the old way.
I'll be watching though.
What's funny about all of this is there is a scenario where Ohio State could win this game AND the National Championship game and not even win the Big Ten Conference.
College football used to do it right.
