Bookies.com: Indiana will have its first legit opponent
Bill Speros writes, “The Hoosiers have run the table thus far in 2024. In addition to their 10-0, 7-0 in the Big Ten start, Indiana is 8-2 ATS. IU did not cover a 12-point line in a 20-15 home win against Michigan. That was IU’s first legit Big Ten opponent in an otherwise soft-sided conference schedule. Indiana enters The Horseshoe in Columbus off the bye. Ohio State is No. 2 in the CFB Playoff Rankings. The Bucks (9-1, 6-1 Big Ten) failed to cover 5 times this season. They rolled through Northwestern at Wrigley Field but failed to cover on the 28.5-point line Saturday. ESPN Analytics gives Ohio State a 73.2% chance of winning. The number is a bit of a discount at just 2 scores. Ohio State has allowed just 9.25 points in its past 4 games. Indiana hasn’t come close to facing a team like Ohio State in a place like Columbus. Style points matter as the regular season comes to a close.”

Ohio State vs Nebraska live score updates, highlights, how to watch game
Ohio State’s men’s basketball players were on the bus to the airport after having won at Rutgers when they switched on the Nebraska-Michigan State game. The drive from Piscataway to Trenton allowed the Buckeyes to see the Cornhuskers prevail in the final seconds and improve to 14-0 with a 58-56 win against the Spartans.
Now, Nebraska brings the nation’s longest winning streak to the Jerome Schottenstein Center, presenting a challenge Ohio State coach Jake Diebler said is one his team is excited for.
“When they saw they won, (our players were) was excited about how big of an opportunity this is for us,” Diebler said Jan. 4. “It’s an early-season Big Ten game, but it’s one at home and it’s one against a team that’s established themselves. You have a top-10 team coming into your building, it’s a huge opportunity and our guys know that. We’ll be ready for it.”
Ohio State is 10-3 overall and 2-1 in the Big Ten after the Jan. 2 win against Rutgers.

Ohio State has added a tight end as its first 2026 transfer portal addition
COLUMBUS, Ohio –Ohio State had added the first player to its 2026 transfer portal class.
Mason Williams is a former member of the 2023 recruiting class who spent his first three seasons as an Ohio Bobcat. After redshirting his freshman season, he’s spent the last two as a vital member of the Bobcats’ offense as both a blocker and a receiver.
In 1,133 snaps, Williams caught 48 passes for 565 yards and six touchdowns. As a blocker, he can be a reliable end-line tight end who can replace the loss of Will Kacmarek, who is out of eligibility. Kacmarek also came from Ohio in 2024 and spent the last two years as a major contributor, developing into one of the nation’s best blocking tight ends.
Williams will have two years of eligibility remaining in Columbus. His addition helps offset the loss of Kacmarek to graduation and Jelani Thurman to the transfer portal. He’ll join a room expected to feature Bennett Christian, Nate Roberts, Brody Lemon and Maxence LeBlanc. Nick Lautar will also join the room as an incoming freshman.
OSU is also waiting for the decision of Purdue transfer Max Klare, who has the option of declaring for the NFL Draft or returning in 2026.
