If the Buckeyes figure out their running game and O-Line and Pryor's injury turns out to be no big deal then Ohio State should win this one in the Shoe without any major problems. However, Indiana looks much improved and could come into the Shoe with a Michigan chip on its shoulder.

I'm very worried about the OSU secondary. Indiana can throw the ball and OSU's secondary is the weak spot in the defense.
If OSU's front 4 can get sacks and disrupt Indiana's rhythm, then I'll feel a little better.

The OSU Oline, and running game is also a concern, but I'm not too worried about the offense, as I can see the offense switching to a more passing mode or "spread" formations and plays than we all saw yesterday.

I think the Illinois game will build some character for Ohio State. The first 4 games were relatively easy wins with 3 cupcakes, Illinois was hitting OSU in the mouth, which is what thye needed. Also, Illinois always seems to play tough against OSU, so yesterday's performance, while not very impressive, is not shocking to me.

I see Ohio State bouncing back in the friendly confines of the Shoe and beating Indiana by about 3 scores. Indiana is not there usual horrible self, but they aren't that good either. We should carve the defense up and should be able to put a ton of pressure on Chappel.

I am getting tired of watching Devon Torrence diving and missing tackles in all the highlights. He is awful.

Bucks need to show up and take care of business; no sense in looking ahead to Wisconsin now

^^^I agree. Frankly it appears that if this is to be a Buckeye "dream season" Ohio State is going to have to take care of business each week for the remainder of the season.

In my humble opinion this year there is Alabama.....and then all of the rest.

Right now OSU is the "best of the rest" but it wouldn't take much to send the Buckeyes packing to a BCS bowl other than Glendale, AZ on January 10th.

Would like to see the coaching staff settle on one tailback and stick with him - I think any of the top four could do the job if they could just settle into the rhythm.

I want to see Saine split out more. He is the 3rd best WR on the team. Put Boom at running back and stick with it, bring in Hall and Berry to give Boom some breathers but Boom has to be the main guy in the backfield.

If Saine gets more than 5 carries, the Hoosiers will cover 28 points.

OSU will need to control the ball on offense and get some pressure on Chappell. Indiana's receiving corp is very good, so are banged up secondary is gonna be tested. Sounds like the Moeller injury could be serious, so Bryant will have to step up again, maybe for awhile.

I'll take OSU by 17. 34-17

How about we let Tressel do what he has all year long which has resulted in OSU getting W's.

OSU ran right at Illinois in the 2nd half, the Illini knew it was coming but still couldn't stop OSU from scoring.

The Buckeyes are fine and will continue to win.

BTW, Christian Bryant looks/will be the next great player for OSU from Glenville.

Don't see the Buckeyes covering this one. I would not be surprised to see OSU winning by 17-21 points, but I think 28 points is a bit much for a team that is a one trick pony right now .... and the pony has a bad back leg.

OSU 38
Indiana 17

I think most are confident because its at Home, and OSU will come out fired up. Also Michigan's best secondary is not as good as OSU hurt secondary.

that's probably a good point. I mean, I have confidence in the team, and playing in the Shoe will definately help, but unless our O line plays a lot better I think we're gonna struggle in our bigger games. Our offensive tackle play, especially against the outside pass rush MUST improve

I would like to see them work on the power running game and give Pryor an light workload, but you can't do it unless you play your best running backs.

They played a team yesterday with a piss poor defense.

OSU's team defense is way better than UM's defense right now.

Look for that line to come down. I think OSU should win by around 2 touchdowns. Of course, I thought they'd beat Illinois by 3+ touchdowns.
