Sure, I think they'd handle any team ranked below about 10, but what about the top tens?

There I just don't know.

Man if they were to beat the Buckeyes, that would be something else!

After their annual loss to Michigan, that would be two losses in a row for them.

I suspect OSU will be about a 7 point favorite, presuming they play both undefeated.

Just a realist, my old friend. :)

Is the game in Columbus or Ann Arbor this year?  If it's at home, I might see Ohio State finally pulling one out.

Indiana is for real. Are they the best team in the country, or the second best? Who knows? But are they one of the elite teams this season? Yes.

What is Indiana's most impressive win?  Illinois?

I'm quite curious about UI, I've seen teams poke up before like TCU and look really really good and then on the Big Stage collapse.  We all have.

I think in some cases they have 3-4 legit stars where it counts and are weak in the lines ...

I don't think the Hoosiers are weak in the trenches
