A Buckeyes win would give the Big Ten back-to-back national champions for the first time since 1942, when the league was called the Western Conference. Paul Brown-coached Ohio State went 9-1 that year and was the third straight national champion from the conference. Voters crowned Minnesota in 1940 and ’41.

The Notre Dame Fighting Irish and Ohio State Buckeyes will battle for the first national championship in the 12-team CFP era.
