2. The Ohio State football team holds Indiana under 17 points
Indiana is one of the highest-scoring teams in the country. They average almost 44 points per game so far this season. We know one of the big reasons for scoring so many points is that they haven't exactly played the toughest schedule thus far. They've played just one team who is currently over .500.
The last game we saw the Hoosiers play was a couple of weeks ago against Michigan. In that game, IU scored just three points in the second half. They only put up 20 points for the entire game. Michigan's defense isn't exactly a brick wall. They allowed 38 points the week prior against Oregon.
Looking at how well the Buckeyes have played on that side of the ball since the Oregon game, I don't see the Hoosiers being able to score much in the second half. I do see Indiana keeping the game close in the first half. A shutout in the second half is entirely possible though.
Ohio State has done a lot better at getting to the quarterback in recent weeks. Expect that to continue on Saturday, especially with the issues that they might have on the offensive side of the ball with the offensive line. The defense is going to step up in a major way.
The final bold prediction we have for this game has to do with what one special player on offense will do for the Buckeyes.
