Ohio State host Indiana for their 3rd top 5 showdown of the season, and this will be the first ever regular season top 5 showdown for the Hoosiers. Here are our bold predictions for the game.
1. Indiana does not get a touchdown.
If the Buckeye defense plays like it did against Penn State, and a few of their other opponents since the bye week, the defense should give up some chunk plays in the middle of the field, but not allow a touchdown. At this time, they have only allowed 2 offensive touchdowns in the last 4 games.
2. Will Howard makes his Heisman moment.
It might be a combination of him using his legs an arms to will Ohio State to a win, but I think the offense has been running through him a lot more since Oregon, and the coaches have a lot of confidence in him, I think he passes for 280 yards, and rushes for 50, and scores 5 total touchdowns.
3. Emeka Egbuka and Jeremiah Smith get 8 catches each.
Egbuka has been silent the past two games, but he has not needed to be a role player against Purdue and Northwestern. He has been known though to be a big game player, and this will be his chance to get involved more, and show off his athleticism. I think him and Jeremiah Smith get 16 or more catches between them and have over 200 yards.
