Okay, we're gonna agree on NIL here are the rules we're gonna agree on... and then we obey the contract on both sides.
Ohio State's offensive line is a massive concern that could lead to an upset loss against Tennessee
If you really watched the Michigan game, when they lost the center from Alabama, Seth McLaughlin, when he went down with that Achilles, I think that offensive line is a serious question mark going up against Tennessee's strength, which is their defensive front.
