ESPN has been running a weekly poll of college football coaches, asking them relevant questions in the run up to the 2015 season. This week, they polled 98 of the 128 FBS coaches who would end up as national champion, and surprise, surprise, your Ohio State Buckeyes ended up at top:
Ohio State received 58 percent of the votes. TCU was the second-most popular choice, receiving 15 percent, followed by Alabama (10 percent), Clemson (5 percent), Baylor (4 percent), Auburn (3 percent) and LSU (2 percent).
It's probably wise to keep in mind that this is an even worse way to gauge college football excellence than the Coaches' Poll itself, especially given that at least one person threw their hat in for Duke (looking at you, OBC), but it's cool to see the kind of respect that Ohio State commands among their peers.
