The Buckeyes take down the No. 5 Hoosiers and set their sights on their rivals from up north as The Game looms.
Ohio State started slowly again, but the Buckeyes took care of the previously undefeated Indiana Hoosiers in a game we thought would be closer but could have been even more lopsided than the 38-15 score indicates.
We broke down the game’s key moments, looked at the statistical data, checked in on our score predictions, and learned that all of our picks to click actually clicked. It was a comprehensive victory by the Buckeyes, and it’s entirely possible that despite its accomplishments this year, Indiana might not be for real.
Following our game recap, we looked around the rest of the Big Ten to check in on all the other scores, including a rivalry battle out in the City of Angels and Nebraska finally becoming bowl eligible.
Wisconsin is left needing a win in a rivalry game of its own this weekend or the Badgers won’t be going bowling. Rutgers was a minute from victory and ended up losing. Minnesota threw a big scare into Penn State. Poor seasons for Purdue, Maryland, and Northwestern didn’t get any better over the weekend.
Finally, we turned our attention to Hate Week. That Team Up North has played solid defense all season but the offense is a one-trick pony. We talked about TTUN’s statistical numbers on the offensive side of the ball, made our picks to click for The Game, and tried our best to predict the final score.
