Don't be surprised if they do.
They claimed 1941 with a #20 ranking...let that sink in. And yes, they will claim it if they lose...bc OSU “shouldn’t” be there.

It should be dropped as a claim.

Yes, because claiming a national championship from 80 years ago is the same as claiming one without winning the championship game in the present day.

Care to guess who made a claim for 1942, despite Ohio State finishing first in the AP poll?
Also, Alabama didnt claim 1937, even though they finished 8-0-1 while national champion Minnesota finished 7-1.
They didnt claim 1945, even though they finished 10-0 while national champion Army finished 9-0.
They didn't claim 1966, despite finishing 11-0 while co-champions Notre Dame and Michigan State finished 9-0-1.
They didn't claim 1977, despite finishing 11-1 while national champion Notre Dame finished 11-1 also... but ND's only loss came against a team Alabama destroyed, which was Ole Miss.
But please don't let me interrupt the narrative being driven by people who communicate in grunts...
