So far this season, the Ohio State football team has looked like the most complete team in the country. They are still undefeated after taking down Washington and look to continue their winning streak this weekend against the Golden Gophers of Minnesota.

Despite what those on ESPN will tell you, the Ohio State Buckeyes have looked like the most dominant team in the nation. They have the best defense in the country and an offense that can explode at any time. No one has come close to beating them yet.

While talking about the Buckeyes, two FOX analysts made an interesting comparison, comparing them to Usain Bolt when he was in his prime in the Olympics. Essentially, they use him to call the Buckeyes the best team in the country through the first few weeks of the year.

FOX analysts use the Usain Bolt to describe the Ohio State football team's dominance

While speaking on The Herd with Colin Cowherd, both Cowherd and Joel Klatt talked about how good the Buckeyes have been to start out the season. Cowherd thinks this is a team that could play for the national championship once again.

"Powerhouse personnel, great offensive coach, I think Ohio State looks like a team that's going to play for the national championship."

Klatt then brings Usain Bolt into the discussion to show just how good the Buckeyes have been.

"Do you remember watching Usain Bolt run the 100, and he was the fastest, but it looked like he was running the easiest? Remember that? That's what Ohio State feels to me right now because they haven't even gotten into fourth gear offensively. They haven't needed it...the team that looks like they're running the easiest is actually running the fastest right now."

The Buckeyes haven't really tried to be dominant on offense quite yet. The Grambling State game shows what they can be on that side of the ball, but they're such a bad opponent that you can't take much from that. Once they get rolling on that side of the ball, they're going to be scary.

At this point in the season, Ohio State looks like the best team in the country by far. The worst half of football they played was the first half last week, and they still had the lead at halftime. It's going to take a monumental effort for another team to take them down.
