The Oregon Ducks will be watching the Indiana Hoosiers vs. Ohio State Buckeyes game closely as it will impact who the Ducks face in the Big Ten Championship Game. How will the game affect College Football Playoff seeding?

Ohio State’s path back to the Big Ten Championship is simple, though easier said than done. All the Buckeyes have to do is get through a third top-five opponent of the season, then beat a rival they haven’t beaten since pre-COVID-19.

COLUMBUS, Ohio — Ohio State will be without six players as the Buckeyes take on the Indiana Hoosiers on Saturday. Most notably, the Buckeyes will be without center Seth McLaughlin who tore his Achilles tendon in practice earlier this week.
