C.J. Stroud doesn’t understand the underdog narrative from skeptics of Ohio State. This was talked about at Tuesday’s press conference.

Stroud is used to people counting him out throughout his career. However, he doesn’t view Ohio State as underdogs. Stroud believes that the Buckeyes have what it takes to compete with Georgia.

At the end of the day, Stroud knows that the Buckeyes are capable of giving the Bulldogs a good game.

“At the end of the day, we’re still Ohio State,” said Stroud. “We’re still the Buckeyes. It’s time to just mask up and go play football.”

While Ohio State may not be favored in the game, there is plenty of talent to go around on its roster. Marvin Harrison Jr. and Emeka Egbuka are proof of that. The running game has also shown a lot of depth this season.

Ohio State will get a chance to prove its critics wrong on New Year’s Eve in Atlanta.
