Ohio State Dominates Indiana, Eyes Big Ten Title

Ohio State's 38-15 victory over Indiana showcased the Buckeyes' dominance, improving their record to 10-1 and setting up a decisive game against Michigan. Despite Indiana's early lead, Ohio State capitalized on special teams errors, including a fumbled punt and a 79-yard punt return touchdown by Caleb Downs. Indiana's offense struggled against Ohio State's defense, managing only 151 total yards and suffering five sacks, which contributed significantly to their first loss of the season. This defeat places Indiana's playoff hopes in jeopardy, as their previously unbeaten record was questioned due to a weaker schedule. The Hoosiers failed to secure a Top 25 win and face further scrutiny from the playoff selection committee. Ohio State is now poised for a potential rematch against Oregon in the Big Ten championship game, should they defeat Michigan.
