David: I think Ohio State wins this one big. They have played stellar so far this season behind Justin Fields and J.K. Dobbins on offense and I expect them to continue to score a lot of points against Indiana as they dropped 49 on them last year.

Indiana’s dual-threat quarterback Michael Penix is a game-time decision as he has an undisclosed injury, but I don’t think that’s a huge deal as his backup Peyton Ramsey threw for 322 yards and three touchdowns on Ohio State last season.

However, I think this Ohio State defense won’t allow as many points this time, after allowing 26 last year, as they looked like they could be a top defensive unit in the country last week when they shut out Cincinnati.

The Buckeyes have started fast each of the last two games and I think they will do that yet again behind Fields, Dobbins, and the plethora of other weapons that they have like K.J. Hill and Binjimen Victor. This will allow other guys to play more like running back Master Teague who I have enjoyed watching so far this year.

Conference games on the road can always be tough but I think the Buckeyes blow out the Hoosiers 48-10.
