Last week, Ohio State needed a little bit of help to get into the Playoff. Now they are the No. 2 ranked team in the country.
The Buckeyes moved up to No. 2 after Michigan, Clemson, and Washington all lost in Week 11. The Huskies were by far the biggest victim of their loss, dropping to No. 6 in the rankings. There is no guarantee they get in now, even if they win out their conference.
Teams to look out for? Wisconsin and Penn State. Both have legitimate shots to win the Big Ten, and even with two losses, a Big Ten title could get either one into the Playoff.
