The public is making a bit more of an anti-Michigan play, even with Indiana’s struggles against the spread," Caesars Sports […]

DALLAS — It’s a little after dinnertime in the Primrose Room of the Gaylord Texan Resort & Convention Center and we’re talking about bacon. It’s not just any bacon, you see. It’s special bacon.

Ohio State defeated Indiana in Bloomington last Saturday, getting revenge for the 2025 Big Ten championship game. But the Buckeyes might have bigger problems after starting quarterback Julian Sayin was injured.
