Ohio State Form

Ohio State will have their sights set on the College Football Playoffs after making it to the final four once again in 2022.

The Buckeyes compiled an almost flawless regular season record a year ago, as they reeled off 11 consecutive wins.

That win streak included a 21-10 home win against #5 Notre Dame and a 44-31 victory at #13 Penn State.

However, Ohio State saw their perfect run come to an abrupt halt when they lost 45-23 to fierce rivals #3 Michigan in their final regular season game.

That loss did not prevent the Buckeyes from making it to the playoffs, but they suffered a heart-breaking exit when they lost 42-41 to #1 Georgia in the Peach Bowl, losing to a last-gasp touchdown.

Indiana Form

Indiana enter the 2023 season looking to perform better than they did a year ago, when they went just 4-8.

The Hoosiers opened the season with a three-game win streak, following up a 23-20 victory over Illinois with a 35-22 win against Idaho and a 33-30 victory at home to Western Kentucky.

Their form nose-dived after that though, with a 45-24 defeat at Cincinnati sparking a seven-game losing skid.

During that time Indiana were beaten 31-10 by #4 Michigan, 45-14 by #16 Penn State and 56-14 at #2 Ohio State.

The Hoosiers stopped the rot briefly with a 39-31 win at Michigan State, but they failed to follow that up as they lost to Purdue in their regular season finale, 30-16.

Verdict

Ohio State have had Indiana’s number for the past 27 years and there is little reason to think that will not continue in 2023.

We expect the Buckeyes the dominate on both sides of the football, resulting in a victory and a cover.
