He manages to deflect the ball in the air and Farrell is there for the interception; Indiana now positions itself inside the 10-yard line

Completely open. Well, when you have this guy here, this is what I mean. He dictates everything. Look how all the defenders go straight towards Jackson, or rather, Smith, and Jackson is free. So, when Smith is on the field, it's not like the ball has to go to him. The defense has to make a decision. And they decided to cover for him. Smart decision, but it allowed Ohio State to defend that pass and miss the open touchdown.

Some of the best in the country. First down from the 35-yard line. Hoover brings it down. Hoover on the move. Josh Hoover falling forwards. And he's hurt. Immediately, it seems that someone else has to come in. He will have to get in for at least one play. Here's the drop, and you can see it lands right on that right shoulder.

This is the latest in "my player is better than yours". It wasn't fully open, but Sayin, who had time in the bag, simply throws the ball. He catches it high above. And Jeremiah Smith adjusts backwards. The defense loses sight of the ball and there's Smith with the biggest play of the day so far. some space. Cross the 40-yard line to the 44. Hoover to throw again. Launch to the band. Becker and Charlie B will go out of bounds. Sent off by Kenyatta Jackson. Hoover. Charlie B out of bounds. Great third and eighth in the 19th. works one-on-one against Cam Calhoun and immediately defeats him. Hugh Hoover's beautiful ball. But then, as he turned around, it seemed as if he threw it straight at Calhoun. I wonder if that's what they're
discussing. It does n't really feel like a touchdown. There is no foul in the play. You give it a try. This is the pistol formation. Fake play. Sayin downloads the pass. West on the move and Isaiah West takes off. Get a first down. Ohio State is trying to fight back here. The lateral pass to West, he cuts inside with space. Isaiah on the sidelines off the field. Isaiah West wins 22. Jackson back in. They throw the short pass. No. Sayin wants to pitch. Caught. He lost it. And Ohio State gets it back.

Bones Jones, their leader. Third down and nine with a backup quarterback. Luke Fahey. Here's Fahey under pressure, advancing in the protective pocket. Handkerchief in the play, incomplete. Olunilola again with pressure. And this penalty will be
against the Buckeyes. Fahey moves, throws low, incomplete for Ennis. And that brings us to fourth chance and 18 I think Hoover will have to survive this possession. Second down and eight at the 32-yard line. Hoover, sideline, pass to the back shoulder, Charlie Becker! Hoover made it! He's very good in this situation. They give it double coverage. McClain is up there, but he watches Becker catch him in mid-air. Just 1:49 to play. Hoover. Trapped! Again, Charlie Becker!
Ohio State shows pressure. Hoover just throws it! Marsh! Touchdown! No! Did he go off the field? Oh, his left foot touched out of bounds. Oh my God. He was completely alone and he knew it immediately. The foot is off the ground, then she secures it and the left foot is off, and Ohio State will win the game. Oh my God. Their offense didn't play its best game. They lost their starting quarterback. Another knee to the ground. And the Ohio State Buckeyes arrive in Bloomington and win an exciting game. 19-15
