Former Ohio State head coach Urban Meyer stated that the Buckeyes football program is on "life support" regarding its College Football Playoff ranking, according to a report from the Columbus Dispatch on Wednesday.
Meyer, who led Ohio State to a national championship in 2014, made the comments as the Buckeyes navigate their position in the CFP rankings. The program has been a perennial contender under current head coach Ryan Day, but recent results have raised questions about their playoff prospects.
The remarks come as the selection committee continues to evaluate teams for the expanded playoff format. Ohio State's resume and remaining schedule will be critical factors in determining whether the Buckeyes can secure a spot in the postseason tournament.
