Ohio State football is primed for a historic season. With loads of talent and great coaching, expect big things along the way to a National Title!

Year in and year out, the Ohio State Buckeyes are among a handful of teams that have fans and analysts expecting nothing short of the College Football Playoff. Combined with the fact the Buckeyes are one of college football’s most recognizable brands means not meeting those expectations is considered a failure — even with a 10+ win season and a conference championship.

The pressure isn’t new. Urban Meyer has already proven he can weather the storm, taking the Buckeyes to the 2015 National Championship Game and leaving with his first title at Ohio State. Ohio State fans have had a taste. They know what’s possible, and now they want more.

2018 is no exception for the Buckeyes. But for national championships to be won, a team needs big wins and great performances from its players. And with the normal expectations, let’s take a look at what could, and should, help the Buckeyes contend for another national championship!
