It isn't listed on ESPN's website on any network. No gameplan, no espn plus listed as of 10/18. I'm sure it will be on ESPN+ though. it always is.

I really wonder why that is...but I feel confident at Indiana. Heck, i'm going to the game, as I always do, because it's like a home game for us.

1-6 in lately on b10 road games

The obvious answer is we NEVER, EVER need it. But stats are most fun when they point out in brilliant detail how incredible the Buckeyes are; and in this case how hard they are going to spank our step-child to the west.

Here's my favorite stat on the Indiana game:

Factoring out our opponents' game vs. OSU, our defense is holding them 154.39 ypg below their usual rushing output.

Indiana is averaging 157.33 ypg.

Indiana's expected rushing output: 2.94 yards

Adjusting this for Indiana's crappy schedule (where is Nicholls State?), OSU can expect to notch another negative rushing yards game this week. I would put vCash on it.



BTW: For those going to the game, I found this on IU's web site...

Due to periodic construction on US Route 37 and heavy traffic on Indiana State Route 46, fans planning to attend Saturday's Ohio State at Indiana football game (11:10 a.m. CDT/EST) are advised to arrive at Memorial Stadium as early as possible.

Here are two sources that say it'll be on ESPN. I'm not sure what you were looking at on ESPN's website.

Loss @ Mich (2003)
Loss @ NW (2004)
Loss @ Iowa (2004)
Win @ MSU (2004)
Loss @ Purdue (2004)
Loss @ PSU (2005)

Actually, 1-5, but your point is quite valid. Conversely, we're 13-1 at home in conference since 2002 (only loss was last year to Wisconsin).

Tress coached football teams struggle on the road...except in Bloomington. Even if the team is looking ahead to next week, which they won't be, this one still won't be close.
