When Indiana loses this Saturday will they stay in the top 122?

I'd probably take the points. The most OSU has scored against a team with a pulse was 38 against MSU. They gave up 32 to Oregon. Wouldn't be surprised at all to see Indiana score in the 20s. So even if OSU plays well, they are pretty close to the spread.

No idea.    Not much of a betting fan, but definitely see a tight one.

The history:
Indiana hasn't beaten Ohio State in a LONG time.  The Hoosiers won two straight beating Earle Bruce's last tOSU team in 1987 and John Cooper's first team in 1988. They tied the Buckeyes in Bloomington a couple years later, in 1990 but since then, 0-29 by an average score of 38-15. 
Bill Mallory was the Hoosier Head Coach then and I was hoping tOSU would tap him to follow Earl.Very unheralded IMO and if he landed at a blue blood or a program with a pulse he could have made some in roads. He was an assistant on Hayes's 1968 NC Buckeye Team and took Miami(OH) to an 11-0 season and winning a bowl. Even though he was already 60 at the time when Earl got canned it wasn't considered an impediment back then. Just ask Bear,Saban,Cignetti or even Booger is in that neighbor hood

They announced the remaining kickoffs for next week.

In case anyone thinks prime time means big game anymore...

OSU will have played 7 noon games, and 2 prime time games (against WMU and MSU)
MSU will have played 0 noon games, and 7 prime time games
I think the Ohio St-Oregon game was also in prime time.  I know that does not change your point,  which is still valid.

just shows the Big can't compete with the SEC for ratings head to head

So, Big Noon

Hasn't Michigan-Ohio State always been an early game, and always killed in the ratings?

I'd take the Hoosiers and the 12.5

I can easily see the Hoosiers playing well enough to keep it within 12

of course this Husker is influenced by those two matchups
I agree with this.  I am not saying Indiana is certain to win,  but I feel the teams are much closer to being equal than the 12.5 pointspread. 

If they played 10 times,  OSU might win 7 out of 10.  With OSU getting 2 blowout wins, OSU with 5 close wins,  Ind with 2 close wins and Ind 1 blowout win.

Well I can't speak for the SEC, but at Texas, as you might remember, our tailgate started at 7 AM regardless of kickoff time.

Yes, it's only been NOT an 11:00 AM game one time. IIRC it was 2006, when both were Top 3 or 4. 

I think some of the reason is that local authorities want it for crowd control purposes.
