A free TD in two straight weeks because the opposing punter can’t catch a snap is really lucky. And don’t be like that, both turnovers were forced, Ohio State did nothing there that was all Indiana’s punter.

Ohio State just dominating Indiana now, they just simply have too good of athletes for Indiana and Day’s passing attack is too good.

Buckeyes have 3x the yardage. Hoosier O is hurting. Will they get to 100 yards of O this half?

The bad special teams has completely shifted the momentum of the game. Indiana's not playing with the confidence they need, so it's sliding.

I think they should make the playoffs in any situation where they only have one loss, but I think they need to make this competitive to be sure. Meanwhile, Tennessee and Georgia are looking vulnerable against El Paso and Massachusetts.

I’m extremely unimpressed with Cignetti in this game.

I’m very curious about BYU vs ASU.

Man. 11-1 Indiana getting left out feels like a possibility and that's gross to think about.

I'm not sure the CFP survives that.

I hate to say it but I don’t think Indiana is one of the 12 best teams in the country. This is why we need to force better non conference schedule to give clarity to how good teams really are.

They've played as good or better against all equal competition with Oregon, sand Ohio State, but that's home/away and game was pretty even until the Punt's.

I disagree. They had their worst day today, and if you judge every team on their worst day then you're comparing a bad loss at Ohio State to losses to Kentucky, to Arkansas, to Georgia Tech. Or maybe judge each school based on their second worst day, in which Indiana's is a close win to Michigan and the others are further losses.

That is fair, I just think it’s impossible to compare these teams cause of such weak nonconference scheduling these days and that includes Oregon. I really think we need more power 4 non conference games. While the eye test today told me Indiana isn’t a legit playoff contender they very well could be compared to the 2 loss SEC teams.

Tennessee pulled away, but they've struggled against any decent competition. They could easily have 4 losses right now, and probably shouldn't be in the playoff picture. As for Georgia, they're so hot and cold it's hard to tell their real identity. Some days they could beat Oregon, other days they struggle with UMass
