For the fourth straight week, Ohio State ran its opponent out of the building as they crushed Indiana 54-7 on Saturday.

The offense is clicking as C.J. Stroud went 21-28 for 266 yards and four touchdowns, while Treveyon Henderson added 81 yards and two scores on the ground on just nine carries.

The defense, which struggled early in the year, seems to have settled in and is playing up to their talent level.

This team has done a nice job of overcoming that early-season loss to Oregon, and they truly look like the best team in the Big Ten.
