History: Ohio State has seven na- tional championships, but hasn’t won one since way back in January. What, have they been counting sheep since then?

He’s prac— tically in a rest home. And sure, with a winning percentage of .708 and 748 all-time wins, OSU is among the top five programs of all time. But, NC.
