The Ohio State Buckeyes come to Bloomington with the eighth best passing offense in the country and tops in the Big Ten. They are averaging 352.2 yards per game and feature three of the better receivers in the country in Chris Olave, Garrett Wilson and Jaxon Smith-Njiba. The Hoosiers entered the season with a deep and talented secondary, but with starters Tiawan Mullen and Reese Taylor missing time the last two games and their status still up in the air on Saturday, it makes this the matchup to watch.

The Indiana Hoosiers will welcome in the 10th ranked Michigan State Spartans for homecoming on Saturday at Memorial Stadium. The Spartans sit at 6-0, which is quite the turnaround from last season and much of that success is attributed to transfer running back Kenneth Walker III who finds himself on some Heisman Trophy watch lists.

The Hoosiers are coming off their bye week and a whole week of rest. It could not have come at a better time. IU is 2-3 on the season, with their three losses coming against some of the best teams in the nation. After a much needed reset, the Hoosiers will welcome the #10 team in the nation Michigan St. The Spartans will be looking for revenge after losing to the Hoosiers during the COVID ridden 2020 season 24-0. Both teams’ rosters look a lot of the same and are watching the film on each other at this exact moment. This will be a bounce-back game for the Hoosiers. If they can pull off an upset victory, the Hoosiers might have a chance to slip back into the AP top 25, considering their strength of schedule. Head Coach Tom Allen will have his program ready, but it will be up to them to buy-in. That said, let’s dive into five keys for the Hoosiers to pull off a victory against the Spartans.

The Hoosiers 38-24 loss to Cincinnati was disappointing for the coaches, players, and fans after starting the game taking a 14-0 lead. There was much improvement from this up-and-coming program compared to their first two games. If a couple of big plays and penalties could have gone in Hoosier’s favor, they could have come out with a win. This week the Hoosiers will travel about three hours south to take on the Western Kentucky Hilltoppers at 8 pm EST on CBS. The Hoosiers are 10-point favors and will look to gain some momentum going into a nationally televised game against Penn State. That said, let’s dive into some keys for this Hoosiers team getting a win on Saturday!
