Projection: likely out

Ohio State’s resume reveals a mix of strong wins and damaging losses. While they notched notable victories over Kentucky and Texas, their inability to consistently perform against ranked teams, evident in defeats to Auburn and Michigan, raises red flags. Dropping close games against opponents like Maryland, Illinois, and Indiana highlights a troubling trend, as these losses can significantly impact their tournament selection chances. With upcoming matchups looming, they have a critical opportunity to bolster their standing but must prioritize wins against solid teams, as each game plays a vital role in defining their postseason fate.
