Despite two big wins over Michigan State and Minnesota, Buckeyes coach Urban Meyer won't take the bait when asked to stump for his team's candidacy for a College Football Playoff slot. "Not right now, no. No, I don't, because I don't want to make ignorant comments. I just don't know," Meyer said.
"I'd make the comment that we're one win away from representing the East in the Big Ten championship game, because I do know that."
Since dropping last year's Big Ten championship game, and a shot to reach the final BCS Championship Game, Meyer said the team has had a laser-like focus on reaching the Big Ten title game once again. A victory today against Indiana seals that for them.
"Everything we did was to get another shot at the Big Ten championship. Everything," Meyer said. "And that's at the doorstep. I imagine that's why (the players) were pretty juiced up (Sunday) for practice."
When the impressiveness of a one-score victory against a solid, but largely unknown, Minnesota team was questioned Meyer was steadfast in defending the hard-fought victory. "I challenge any team in the country that wants to go ahead and schedule this one in November," Meyer said of their snowy win.
