Ohio State-Indiana game time, details

Ohio State leads the all-time series, 77-12-5. Not only that, but the Buckeyes are riding a 26-game win streak against the Hoosiers, with Indiana’s last victory coming in 1988 (the teams tied in 1990). Ohio State head coach Ryan Day is 3-0 versus the Hoosiers in his now-four-year run. Two of those games were decided by at least 41 points. The outlier was the 2020 matchup, a top-10 showdown in Columbus that saw then-Indiana quarterback Michael Penix Jr. air it out for 491 yards and five touchdowns. Last year, Day’s squad notched a 54-7 victory on the road. Ohio State quarterback C.J. Stroud completed 21 passes, and four of them went for touchdowns. Both TreVeyon Henderson and Miyan Williams found the end zone, and, thanks to a 30-point Buckeyes second quarter, the game was over at halftime.
