The Buckeyes were on bye this past week and now head to Indiana to face the Hoosiers.

While Ohio State suffered the early loss to Oregon, they’ve started to look like Ohio State again. The Buckeyes have won their last three games by a combined score of 177-37. Quarterback C.J. Stroud is starting to look comfortable and the defense is settling in.

Now, the competition hasn’t exactly been tough, and Indiana won’t be much of a threat this week. Our first real idea of whether this Ohio State team is like other Ohio State teams will come in two weeks, when they host Penn State.

Regardless, this is the most talented team in the conference and they’ve shown it lately.

Hot. Would James Franklin leave Penn State for LSU?. light
