Where Ohio State ranks in our six tiers of the Big Ten in 2025

Year 1 of the expanded Big Ten produced a season where the conference saw four teams make the College Football Playoff, with Ohio State eventually winning a national title while Oregon won the conference. So what's in store for Year 2 in 2025? On this Monday episode of Buckeye Talk, Stephen Means and Stefan Krajisnik reestablish their Big Ten tiers following the closing of the spring transfer portal window. The goal is to put all 18 teams into six different tiers. See who they think comes into the season with 'Natty or bust' expectations while others are trying to rebuild.
