Ohio State football won the 2017 Big Ten Championship and here are five reasons the Buckeyes will also take the 2018 title.

Ohio State ended its 2017 season as the Big Ten champion, with an overall record of 12-2. It’s no surprise that the Buckeyes took the title after blowing out their Big Ten opponents with a 8-1 record. The Buckeyes have an excellent roster and one of the best coaching staffs to back it up. This allows for Ohio State to always be first in line for the title.

Although the Buckeyes are conference champs, they didn’t earn a spot to compete in the College Football Playoff for a shot at the national title.

Urban Meyer feels his team deserves the opportunity, as do the fans. But, the committee gets to decide in the end, and when it’s people choosing the end result of a football team, they want a story and getting wins unfortunately was not enough for the Buckeyes.

However, Ohio State is stacked, with a conference title under its belt and an elite roster. The Buckeyes appear to be more than ready for what is to come next season. Let’s hope, the Big Ten rivals that trail behind don’t make a comeback.

Ohio State still needs to make a bigger impression if it wants to compete for the Big Ten title, but here are five reasons why the Buckeyes will win the conference in 2018.
