Today, Ohio State sets out to complete the second leg of a prestigious-but-unknown college football title: The Illinois State Championship. Of course, the Buckeyes completed the first leg of the trifecta back in September, when they beat Northern Illinois in Columbus. And if they’re going to get the sweep, they’ll have to do it on the road, with the game in Champaign today and at Northwestern in Evanston next week.

Illinois State Champions. Wow, if we can complete this, the rest of the season is going to be such a letdown.
