Ohio State and Indiana are all set to engage in a top ten battle this weekend in the ‘Shoe. When you panned down the abbreviated schedule when it came out after the Big Ten decided to reinstate the fall football season, it’s unlikely that this one was circled on the calendar as a huge contest. But that’s what it is.
Frankly, this might end up being the biggest regular-season game in 2020 for the Buckeyes, we just don’t know yet. As it stands right now, the Hoosiers are first in the Big East Division courtesy of the extra game it has played because of Ohio State’s inability to play last weekend because of the coronavirus pandemic taking a toll on Maryland’s program.
Hoosiers’ head coach, Tom Allen, also knows how big of a game Saturday’s contest is, and also knows what a talented team his squad is going against. That was evident when he made his media appearance Monday to preview the Ohio State.
If you didn’t catch what he said, we’ve grabbed the video from Indiana University Athletics YouTube channel for your viewing pleasure. Click on the below video and listen to Allen talk about how impressed he is with the improvement Justin Fields has made, the state of mind with his team, what this game means to the program, and much, much more.
Ohio State will host Indiana at Noon EST. The game will be televised on FOX with the network’s Big Noon Kickoff Show originating from Columbus.
