Ohio State has shown the epitome of a killer instinct, jumping all over the Volunteers and Ducks early and making it academic well before the final horn. Take away the Jedi mind trick that Michigan pulled in the Horseshoe, and the Buckeyes have covered in five of six. Ryan Day’s team is pummeling every opponent whose logo doesn’t include a Block M.
That blowout of Oregon, which beat Ohio State by one point at home during the regular season, spoke volumes. The best team in this playoff unquestionably wears scarlet and gray.

After watching Ohio State ruthlessly defeat Oregon with ease -- I'm officially threatened by the Buckeyes and I'm sure their opponents feel the same. Meanwhile, Texas had a few times to end the game vs Arizona State, but struggled to hit field goals and stop the Sun Devils in regular time.
Ryan Day's team was in full force, with TreVeyon Henderson and Jeremiah Smith each recording two touchdowns. Plus, Will Howard looked like a true QB1, throwing over 300 yards and a trio of touchdowns.
