“There are at least a few SEC teams that will beat OSU by that margin and more.”
OSU plays who is on their schedule. The weak teams they scheduled were a “donation”. Tressell coached at YSU. He knows what a big game means financially to those teams. The weak teams are all Ohio teams. OSU also scheduled and played Washington in Washington. OSU can’t control how good or bad non conference teams are, OSU also played Texas, Mack Brown didn’t want anymore of the Buckeyes.
I’ll bet on the Buckeyes no matter who they play in the bowl. Like I said, no team in the nation can beat them by more than 7. Give me the Bucks and 7, for $100?
