Their midseason win over Alabama helped cement them in the top-10. Tennessee came up short against Georgia, making them 1-1 against ranked teams. Ohio State should prove to be an equally tough test. Young QB Nico Iamaleava made major strides this year. He&#8217;ll be tested by the Buckeyes&#8217; experienced defense and will need to be at his best to win here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"ohio-state-is-flying-under-the-radar\">Ohio State is Flying Under the Radar<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Ohio State&#8217;s loss to Michigan has a lot of people writing them off in the CFP. This includes the ranking committee, which placed them below a Penn State team that they defeated on the road. While their defeat was certainly concerning, it can also be looked at in a positive light. All teams have fluky, poor performances and the Buckeyes may have gotten theirs out of the way early. Their competitive games against #1 Oregon, #6 Penn State, and #10 Indiana prove they have what it takes to fight for the title.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"tennessee-vs-ohio-state-prediction-buckeyes-pile-it-on\">Tennessee vs Ohio State Prediction: Buckeyes Pile it On<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite these two teams being well-matched, Ohio State has some key advantages. Their defense ranks #1 in the nation and will give Tennessee&#8217;s gimmick offense fits. Iamaleava&#8217;s relative inexperience will be a key factor in this game. Meanwhile, the Buckeyes also hold a top-10 offense, leaving the Volunteers with no margin for error if they fall behind. Ohio State should pull away in the 2nd half.<\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Volunteers and the Buckeyes enter this NCAAF game equally matched.
