Ohio State receives College Football Playoff championship rings (Photos)

Ohio State’s College Football Playoff championship rings have arrived and they are as cool as you’d expect them to be.

Buckeyes receivers coach Zach Smith tweeted out some close-ups of the team’s new hardware, which was earned in a hard-fought 42-20 victory over Oregon.

These things are shiny and they are HUGE. Head coach Urban Meyer and tight end Jeff Heuerman certainly seem pleased.

Apparently these aren’t the only rings the Buckeyes will receive on Friday. I’d assume the Big Ten Championship and Sugar Bowl rings are on the way.

The Buckeyes, who are scheduled to play their spring game on April 18, kick off their season on the road at Virginia Tech on Sept. 7. Revenge may be on their minds for that one.
