Ohio State is dwarfing the rest of the Big 10 when it comes to football recruiting.

According to Saturday Tradition, the Buckeyes have 11 recruits in the 2021 class ranked in the top 150 on 247Sports. The rest of the Big 10 has a grand total of three. (RELATED: David Hookstead Is The True King In The North When It Comes To College Football)

Below is a live look at the rest of the conference upon hearing this news.

I know I trash OSU on a regular basis, but I certainly respect them. Do I fear them? Do I fear taking the field against the Buckeyes.

Hell no.

However, I absolutely respect the great football tradition in Ohio that Urban Meyer brought back to the top of the college football world, and Ryan Day didn’t let it drop off at all.

OSU is just in a class of their own when it comes to football in the B1G. The Badgers are an elite program, and we still struggle like hell against the Buckeyes.

The Big 10 championship game this past season was just heartbreaking, and you could feel it slipping away even when we jumped out to a huge lead.

When it comes to recruiting, OSU gets to pick first,and then the rest of the conference gets to pick from what’s leftover.

If you want to be the best, then you have to be willing to play the best. Right now, OSU has the most NFL talent in the conference and they have the best quarterback in Justin Fields.

That’s okay. We’re still not backing down.

We’ll see you in the B1G title game! Can’t wait.
