Note:
All of the above rankings are taken directly from the NCAA except for strength of schedule, which is taken from Team Rankings.com.
The Redzone TD% and Redzone TD% Defense are calculated by me and not ranked by the NCAA. Determining who has the advantage in these categories is strictly my arbitrary judgment.
Quick thoughts:
I’m old enough to remember when the numbers said this game would be a one-sided dominant win for the Nittany Lions, yet the Hoosiers made it a ballgame with a chance to go up after an onside kick near the end of regulation.
