Ohio State won the first ever College Football Playoff nearly seven months ago and is a favorite to repeat as national champions this season.
A slew of starters return, including defensive leader Joshua Perry and All-American Joey Bosa, further adding to the already mountainous expectations the Buckeyes face in 2015.
As a result, Ohio State is the main subject on a bundle of preview magazine covers, and Sports Illustrated is no different. Perry and Bosa — along with Brutus and the national championship trophy — grace a regional cover of the magazine's college football preview.
Bosa and Perry aren't the only players featured on covers since Ohio State captured the title in January. Cardale Jones and Ezekiel Elliott also got in on the fun this summer.
