COLUMBUS, Ohio — Ohio State football coach Ryan Day and Indiana’s Curt Cignetti will go head-to-head Saturday when their programs meet in the Big Ten Championship Game in Indianapolis.

COLUMBUS, Ohio — Ohio State football capped an undefeated regular season with an impressive feat Sunday. The Buckeyes checked in at No. 1 in the latest AP Top 25. Ohio State has now held that position every week since its season-opening win against Texas.

Top-ranked Ohio State and No. 2 Indiana are both expected to earn first-round byes in the College Football Playoff, regardless of Saturday's Big Ten Championship outcome.

Texas A&M fell out of the top five of The Associated Press college football poll for the first time in two months Sunday, while Texas Tech notched its highest ranking in 17 years.

Indiana football's Big Ten championship game foe has been set: The No. 2 Hoosiers will face No. 1 Ohio State at 8 p.m. Saturday in Indianapolis.

Thirteen of the top 14 teams in the College Football Playoff rankings won, and the one that didn't (Texas A&M) was already guaranteed a CFP spot. Chalk has reigned over the past couple of weeks, but as with pizza among other things,

No. 1 Ohio State put a bow on its perfect regular season and snapped a four-game losing streak to No. 15 Michigan with a dominant 27-9 win Saturday. The Buckeyes also secured their first Big Ten Championship Game appearance since 2021 and their first 12-0 record since 2019, coach Ryan Day's first full season leading the program.
