It never really was a contest. Ohio State hasn’t lost a game against Indiana in Indiana since 1988 and today was no exception, as the Buckeyes demolished the Hoosiers 41-10. Judging from the stats, the score doesn’t even tell the full story. The Buckeys ran for 478 yards to Indiana 138 and had 22 first downs to Indianas 8. In the end, it was exactly what Ohio State wanted, a win on the road. Next week, its a trip to Minnesota.
At this point in the season, there are four teams in the Big Ten with only one Conference loss — Penn State, Wisconsin, Northwestern, and Ohio State. After next week’s game against Minnesota, the Buckeyes face Illinois on November 5th and Northwestern on November 12th ahead of The Game on November 19th. Penn State, meanwhile, will meet Wisconsin on November 5th. Depending on how things play out, the Big Ten Championship could be up for grabs until the end of the season.
