Ohio State - Indiana INSTANT ANALYSIS

[@WThomas66]

151 total yards and 2.5 yards per play. IU got dominated.

[@keithbryson4183]

This game is more about how good the Buckeyes are rather than how bad IU played.

[@philiphawkins6664]

@@keithbryson4183 or it’s a measure of how far Indiana has to go. There is a vast separation in the athletic ability between the two teams. Indiana. Best win was 6-5 Washington. That’s not even what the committee calls “quality”. Indiana has a very long way to go before they can compete with the best

[@kouroshsaghafi323]

Indiana is doing their best and hats off to doing the best they can do. I don't think it's fair to expect in one season that they have "arrived", at the top of College Football. Likewise, we, OSU die hard fan, are at the level of Alabama or Georgia yet. Good job so far Hoosiers

[@raveouscarlias4479]

The most impressive win of the year for Ohio State by far.

[@philiphawkins6664]

Second most. Penn state was tougher team.

[@marycooley4943]

And we had to play @ Penn State ​@@philiphawkins6664

[@PisgahGravelProject]

Indiana is this season's Iowa. Fake ID of college football. This is coming from a die hard Iowa fan. I just don't form my opinions from delusions or biases from being a fan. I am objective and honest, a quality rare these days.

[@matthewbernstein4485]

Two of the most important drives in a game are to end the 1H and start the 2H, especially for momentum swings and when you have the ball. Indiana had the ball in both situations and yet Ohio State not only stopped them but was actually the team that scored on both drives because of IU’s punting blunders. Indiana is still a very good team, but their play calling against OSU was suspect after the first drive. Multiple times they should have run it on second short and didn’t. They still have a chance to make some noise in the playoff with the right matchups, which they certainly will be participating in.

[@mick40jb]

IU went for 2 and did an onside kick right before. Cignetti shouldn't complain about running up the score

[@apushman]

Especially when they ran up the score on 7/10 of their games

[@williamwinner4234]

He didn't complain about it

[@razor7241]

Well if he hadn’t shot off his mouth several times, MAYBE Day would have taken a knee at the end. His “I win, goggle me” and stating Ohio State was not that great didn’t sit too well with Ohio State’s players.

[@lonnywheeler9821]

For sure

[@troyka00]

@@razor7241 Bud, you have no clue on the context of the "Google me" quote. That was said at a press conference during the winter signing period. He was being asked different versions of the same question over and over -how do you expect to recruit players to IU, with the reporter eluding to IU's football history. But hey, if that really gets you going ...lol

[@JoshJorg44]

The refs also only called penalties on Igbinosin when Indianas DBs could have been called too. fortunately, we won despite the refs

[@marycooley4943]

The Refs really sucked didn't they. Calling all sorts of things on us but totally letting Indiana get away with holding, holding, more holding, pass interference ( Smith would have had a touchdown there), and more holding.

[@darrenburrow8499]

Indiana....ZERO yards in 2nd quarter....85 total rushing

[@dilldowschwagginz2674]

My guy looks so sad that OSU bent Indiana over. But yeah, he's a Buckeye fan

[@marycooley4943]

Several of the SEC 2 loss teams are now 3 loss teams. Alabama and Old Miss got flushed ladt night🚽

[@mnshws12]

Ok, 1st hard game and they got hammered. Lost by 23, and it could have been uglier. Have to drop them to 12 or below. Only hard game of the year and they failed their only test badly.

[@tamarabuirley1379]

Alabama lost, Ole Miss lost, T A&M lost, BYU lost, Colorado lost. The ranking will be interesting.

[@marycooley4943]

Why shouldn't they be in the top 12. The only lost to us who (The Buckeyes) only lost by 1 pt to the #1 team...🤔

[@darealmvp2437]

Indiana is a nice story, but they clearly aren't capable of winning against a great team.

[@matthewbernstein4485]

Neutral field with normal weather and they can hang with most, plus there aren’t any great teams this year.

[@harveydilworth7140]

70 years old it's quite simple Ohio state has better players Alabama has better players Georgia has better players it's never going to change it's been that way for 70 years and it'll continue the wannabes will be okay but won't win against the big teams it's been going on for years

[@HughMorristheJoker]

Georgia has not been good for 70 years. Even Bama and Ohio State had bad stretches. USC, Oklahoma, and LSU, just to name a few, have all been top programs during those years. There is more parity than what you are saying.

[@RodneyVaughn-t8s]

Do you know what kills me? If this was the NFL and KC beat 10 nobodies you would still say they were a great team.They just had a bad day

[@dustinhaas8538]

But the floor in the nfl is a lot higher than the floor in the ncaa.

[@RodneyVaughn-t8s]

@dustinhaas8538 This is true but if we beat Purdue next week which is more than likely and don't make the playoffs. That's saying winning doesn't mean a thing. It would be like not winning at all.

[@dustinhaas8538]

@ I feel your frustration bruh, I just don’t think that you’re articulating it particularly well. The truth is you lost one game, on the road, to a team that also only lost one very close game, on the road, to the #1 team in the country. Try not to hang your head and I hope that they get their due consideration.

[@HughMorristheJoker]

They will get in with ole miss losing as well as Bama.

[@troyjones5156]

So Indiana got beat by the team that lost to Oregon by one point and people are dragging Indiana? Make it make sense. OSU have pro players going against IU students which will be in the work place when they graduate. Slow down and act like you've won a game before.

[@markgriffin5889]

lame take

[@Salty_Balls]

Denying the reality of how he accurately portrayed this game is akin to how you keep insisting on using the women's room - delusional.
