The Ohio State Buckeyes are the number two-ranked team in the country. Ohio State is 7-1 this season after they defeated the Penn State Nittany Lions 20-13 on Saturday on the road.
The Buckeyes trailed 10-0 early in the game, but Ohio State responded after that. Urban Meyer has coached the Ohio State Buckeyes football program in the past and is a bigger supporter of Buckeyes head coach Ryan Day.
Former Ohio State Buckeyes Head Coach Urban Meyer Doesn’t Seem Concerned About the Team
There are a lot of Buckeyes doubters this season because of head coach Ryan Day. Ohio State hasn’t won a National Championship in a decade. It was during the 2014 season when Cardale Jones was the third-string quarterback and won it all with him because of injuries.
Urban Meyer was the head coach of Ohio State then. He said about the Buckeyes potentially winning a National Title this season:
“The most physical team will win the national championship. I used to say this to our players, the team that punches the hardest will win the national title. It’s historic. I mean, it’s time tested. That’s what happens. Ohio State, there were concerns. I don’t have any more concerns. I saw what I saw.”
Interestingly, he said this. Some of the biggest questions about Ohio State this season have been the offensive line. They lost to the Oregon Ducks on the road 32-31 earlier in the season.
Could Potentially Have To Face the Oregon Ducks In the BIG10 Title Game
Likely, the winner of the Indiana Hoosiers and the Ohio State Buckeyes game on November 23 is going to be facing the Oregon Ducks in the BIG10 Title game this season. Ohio State has to win the Indiana game because if they don’t, questions will continue to come around about Ryan Day.
The questions will continue about Day unless they win the National Title this season. They are the one football program that is under pressure to win it all this season.
