Our Ohio State and Notre Dame beat writers talked Buckeyes vs. Fighting Irish predictions and who will win the CFP national championship game.

Ohio State is playing like every player on the roster bottled up the feeling after losing to Michigan and is uncorking it before each play.

OSU’s devastating offense ranks Top 10 on each side of the ball in success rate, EPA/play and marginal efficiency. The main areas of weakness on offense are the Ohio State O-line’s ability to handle extra rushers, ranking 78th with a 9.2% blitz down sack rate, and a somewhat elevated 10.2% blown run block rate that checks in at 94th nationally.
