Ohio State can exploit these two areas of weakness against Indiana

Before Ohio State takes on Indiana, we scout the offense and defense of the Hoosiers. They have been good, but here’s how to beat them.

By now, you know that there’s a pretty big matchup between Ohio State and Indiana this weekend. It’s the first time the Buckeyes and Hoosiers have met with both inside the top ten, and that’s mostly because IU has been one of the biggest surprises of the college football season to date.

I went back and watched the film of the Indiana Hoosiers trying to understand how they could be undefeated when no one gave them a chance before the season. Looking back, a lot of people predicted somewhere between seven and eight wins (all before the coronavirus pandemic in a regular schedule). While many thought they were an up and coming team, there weren’t many predicting Indiana would be the team it has shown to be up to this point.

The Hoosiers have so far shocked everyone by beating Penn State, Rutgers, Michigan, and Michigan State, all while heading into the Ohio State matchup undefeated. Quarterback Michael Penix Jr. has been outstanding and the defense has stepped up to help lead the way towards an undefeated start. Let’s scout the Hoosiers starting with the offense.
