This weekend, TCU and USC are only 2.5-point favorites in their respective championship games. TCU plays a Kansas State team that they beat earlier this season by ten, and USC is rematched against a Utah team that defeated them by one point previously.
It's certainly not outside the realm of realistic possibility that one or both of them lose, which would open the door for the Buckeyes.
As a fan of the Buckeyes--I'm here for it! Would love to see some Buckeye redemption.
Wouldn't that be better than waiting an entire year for a second chance?
