Sometimes the best way to start a story is to simply let the stats tell the tale.
Indiana marched 70 yards down the field for a touchdown on its first possession, 17 of those yards coming off of penalties. For the rest of the game, the No. 5 Hoosiers could only cobble together 98 yards, finishing with 151 total and an abysmal 2.6 yards per play.
It’s the fewest yards Ohio State’s allowed to a Big Ten opponent since 2021, also against Indiana. The worst offense in the FBS, Kennesaw State, averages 4 yards per play, a whole 1.
