College Football Update

Forty five years ago, after a November 9th loss to Levi Jackson and Michigan State, Ohio State fell from the number one ranking, not to return there that season.

This year, though the Buckeyes (Ohio State) routed Maryland, this a year after a narrow escape vs them last season, they will fall from the top spot, as that will go to LSU, after their Joe Burrow led (46-41) win at Alabama.

Unlike 1974, if Ohio State wins its remaining games and perhaps even with just one loss in the three remaining regular season games and potential Big Ten title tilt, they will have a shot at the only important, even in a football sense, number one ranking and that is the one at the end of all the games.
