Indiana has lost 5 straight games?
They are looking at potentially 1-8 in Big Ten play?

No credit given to the RU defense for being completely stifling after that 1Q drive? It's not like we haven't been doing that all year to any team not named OSU.

Anyone of us could have written that post game article for the Indy press with the 3 things:

1. Sam Brown
2. The defense
3. “The ball is the program” play at QB

Done. Send it to the printer.
