Ohio State Buckeyes Favored to Reclaim Top Spot in Big Ten Too Long Dominated by Rival Michigan
The Buckeyes are primed to take back the top spot in the Big Ten this year after falling behind Michigan in recent seasons. College football preview magazines have all picked Ohio State to win the league, highlighting the talent on their roster after significant additions from the transfer portal.
One of the biggest additions to the coaching staff is Chip Kelly, a renowned offensive mind, who joined as the offensive coordinator. With Kelly on board, head coach Ryan Day will be able to delegate play-calling responsibilities for the first time in his tenure.
Despite Michigan winning the national championship last season, it's Oregon, one of the Big Ten's newcomers, that is seen as the biggest threat to Ohio State. The Ducks have been picked just behind the Buckeyes by many publications, noting their comparable talent level.
Most predictions place Ohio State at the top of the Big Ten standings, followed closely by Oregon and Michigan. The upcoming season is set to be an exciting one for college football fans as the conference expands to include 18 members.
Stay tuned for more updates and analysis as the season progresses. Go Buckeyes!
