The Buckeyes are sandwiched in between Clemson (No. 4) and national champions UCF (No.6).
Even though it was an all SEC national championship, the 2017-18 season is officially over, as the Alabama Crimson Tide defeated the Georgia Bulldogs in overtime, 26-23, off of a game-winning 41-yard touchdown from backup quarterback Tua Tagovailoa.
With the season done, the final AP Poll was released—and the Ohio State Buckeyes remained at the No. 5 spot. Alabama, Georgia, Oklahoma and Clemson were the top four teams, respectively, while the UCF Knights came in at No. 6.
