After a 52-3 win over Rutgers in the first Big Ten game of the season, Ohio State stayed at No. 4 in the Week 3 of the AP Poll behind No. 1 Alabama, No. 2 Clemson and No.3 Georgia. The Buckeyes failed to earn a first place vote.

Ohio State is one of five teams from the Big Ten in the Top 25 along with No. 6 Wisconsin, which received one first place vote, No. 11 Penn State, No. 19 Michigan and No. 25 Michigan State.

The Buckeyes were ranked as high as No. 2 by three voters, and as low as No. 11.
