Apologies to those who read this article before it went to Blog Heaven.

Ohio State defeated Alabama 42-35 in the Sugar Bowl. How have the Buckeyes fared against the Tide in recruiting since 2012? Over the next couple of weeks I will compare Ohio State's and Alabama's recruiting by position during the Urban Meyer era.

Between 2012 and 2015 Ohio State recruited four quarterbacks and Alabama recruited five quarterbacks.

Torrance Gibson is not listed because he is listed as an athlete.

 

Cardale Jones may not have the best composite rating, but I like his 1-0 record against Alabama.
