Kickoffs is set for 8 pm EST. The ESPN College GameDay crew is making its first live visit to Bloomington for a football game.
Oddsmakers opened the Buckeyes as -20-point favorites versus the Hoosiers, while the game’s total opened at 53.
The Buckeyes finished 11-2 last season. This allowed them to reach the College Football Playoff semifinals. They lost to Clemson 31-0 in the Fiesta Bowl.
Ohio State quarterback J.T. Barrett threw for 2,555 yards with 24 touchdowns last season. He also threw seven interceptions. Sophomore Mike Weber is back for the Buckeyes at running back. He rushed for for 1,096 yards and nine TDs.
Ohio State has won 21 consecutive games vs. the Hoosiers. They lead the all-time series 72-12-5. Indiana’s last win over the Buckeyes came in 1988 in Bloomington. Host Ohio State won 38-17 last year.
Hoosiers Look to Improve in 2017
New Hoosier Head Coach, Tom Allen was promoted from defensive coordinator to head coach prior to the Foster Farms Bowl. IU lost to Utah 26-24. He took over when former head coach Kevin Wilson was forced to resign because of accusations about injured players.
Indiana expects four or five guys to gain meaningful time at running back. The Hoosiers must replace Devine Redding. He rushed for more than 1,000 yards each of the previous two seasons. Redding left early for the NFL.
