With a healthy Justin Fields back in the saddle, the Buckeyes' offense got back on track after their shocking upset loss to Nebraska last week. However, for the second straight weekend the Ohio State defense surrendered over 400 total yards to an opposing quarterback. They played the bend, but don't break to perfection late, and Indiana had 2nd and goal at the 1 on each of their final two possessions, and got no points. After a false start, the Hoosiers elected to go for it on 4th and goal fro mthe 4, and Shaun Wade knocked the ball away the first time, and then with 38 seconds to go, on 3rd and goal from the 2 following a Penix one yard loss, the Buckeyes dropped Tuf Borland into coverage, and he ended the game with an interception.
Don Brown loaded up the box, and dared Josh Jackson to throw it over them, and he didn't although not for a lack of trying, with a career high 48 pass attempts. Quinn Nordin's kicking woes continued, missing 2 of 3 attempts, plus an extra point. But it didn't matter, as the Terps had no answers for the Wolverines' offense
The Rebels, already with an upset of Alabama in their pockets, were looking to add another top ten victory, and after 3 quarters it looked like a laugher. The Rebs were up 32-10, and the only reason it wasn't worse, was because they had settled for six field goals. Kellen Mond threw for 186 yards in the fourth quarter though, and the Aggie defense finally showed up, scoring three consecutive touchdowns. But a failed two point conversion on the final score proved to be the difference
