The Indiana Hoosiers and Ohio State Buckeyes entered Saturday’s contest in rainy Columbus knowing the outcome of their game would likely determine who won the Big Ten East title. The game was showcased on FOX and it was billed as the biggest IU football game in more than 20 years. Indiana gave the Ohio State Buckeyes some problems but the defending Big Ten champions proved once again why they are the unquestioned class of the conference. They rattled off 21 unanswered points to end the first half and went into the locker room ahead 28-7. Indiana had an offensive resurgence in the second half that truly pressured the Buckeyes but they ultimately came up just short with Ohio State prevailing 42-35. The Hoosiers are now 4-1 on the season while the Buckeyes improved to 4-0.
