Very well could be. They aren’t very deep that’s for sure. I heard on the podcast (Bill Landis) today that Kamara their end literally doesn’t come off the field and they basically only play 5 people up front on defense.

So depth is a problem it seems like for them. So it’s pretty simple then… jump them fast and gas their team with physical play.

I should’ve added that I have a feeling we lose but I still think we’ll win. It’s an odd feeling for sure but I think it’s because we’ve lost a few starters now.

I am a little more concerned about Scum, than this game. Which in all is concerning. Lol

That right there may be the reason Scum had them on the ropes at home.

Indiana is also having injury bug issues, and on their O line too. That may be a huge factor in this game.

Re: Jim McElwain, the head football coach at Central Michigan, agreed to a five-year contract extension in September 2022 that will keep him at the university through the 2026 season. McElwain's base pay will increase each year, from $1,005,120 in 2023 to $1,079,120 in 2026. He will also receive a $150,000 retention bonus on February 15 of each of the last four years of the contract.

Just sayin': Good question, he would be getting over $1.1M the next 2 years. He's just 62 years old and football coaches at that age don't usually retire and/or leave a program unless there are some issues/problems at the school or a better job elsewhere.

RJ Young calling the game 35-31 Ohio State. I guess he doesn't remember less than two weeks ago Indiana being completely shut down in the second half (scored three points total) by Michigan, on their home field...

I think he’s correct on this one. I think with two weeks to prepare and our tendencies to give up some longer throws I’d be pleasantly surprised if we held IU under 21.

No clue what to expect from our offense so who knows but sort of like PED I think it’s really a toss up. I just have this bad feeling we’ll trip up because we won’t be able to be consistent enough on offense and we’ll not get off the field enough on defense.

Just a feeling though and hopefully we blow them out.

We just watched Northwestern play OSU at Wrigley Field where they grew grass over the diamond for (1) game.

There’s no reason OSU can’t grow a grass field for the football season and move any events at the Horsheshoe to an indoor venue at that time of year.

And to be perfectly frank, it’s absolutely a medical concern. There are 33% more knee ligament tears on artificial turf than grass…….to the point, athletes are now refusing to play on it. I promise, it will start causing OSU to lose athletes if it hasn’t already.

But Seth isn’t correlated to the above, IMO.

I get it and tend to agree with you, but I am also pointing out the reason that I would be surprised if it happened. I was in no way arguing in support of a turf field. I can't stand the injuries.

I just think turf will be a constant that the school will not relinquish, especially with the new world where revenue sharing is on the horizon.

They are predicting a score something like 35 -10 Buckeyes.

OSU has a solid revenue stream from the concerts and events held at the stadium. I would be surprised if they go to grass.

They may look for other turf alternatives than the one they currently have.

Don't see grass happening.
