The (No. 3) Ohio State Buckeyes will be on the road as they take on the Indiana Hoosiers in Big Ten action on Saturday, Sept. 2 at 3:30 p.m. ET. This should be an interesting game as we see how the Buckeyes look as they try to compete for the College Football Playoff this season.


Ohio State season predictions

The Ohio State Buckeyes made the College Football Playoff last season with an 11-2 (8-1) record before losing to the Georgia Bulldogs in the semifinals.

However, things have changed as quarterback CJ Stroud has been drafted in the NFL and will have Kyle McCord under center. The team has a lot of talent in the wide receiver room, with Emeka Egbuka and Marvin Harrison Jr.

Ohio State's defensive line has a lot of talent and should be better. Expect another CFP appearance, as they have an incredible roster.

Indiana season predictions

The Indiana Hoosiers finished 2022 with a 4-8 (2-7) record and need to figure things out for 2023. They have a new quarterback and redshirt freshman, Tayven Jackson, who went 3-for-4 with Tennessee last season.

Indiana's defense struggled as it gave up 33.9 points per game. If the Hoosiers can figure out how to improve on this side of the ball, it can give them a chance to win six games.
