Both Ohio State and Notre Dame feature star-studded rosters, but which national title contender is deeper? We combined both rosters to create an ultimate CFP National Championship lineup.

OSU’s devastating offense ranks Top 10 on each side of the ball in success rate, EPA/play and marginal efficiency. The main areas of weakness on offense are the Ohio State O-line’s ability to handle extra rushers, ranking 78th with a 9.2% blitz down sack rate, and a somewhat elevated 10.2% blown run block rate that checks in at 94th nationally.
