The time has come, and after an undefeated regular season for the first time in program history, Indiana is playing in the Big Ten Championship. The Hoosiers will face Goliath, Ohio State, for a chance to bring a conference title back to Bloomington for the first time since 1967.
This certainly won't be an easy game for the Hoosiers as Ohio State is the No. 1 team in the country for a reason. The defenses will be key in this game as quarterbacks Fernando Mendoza and Julian Sayin are both Heisman candidates and will hope to lead their team to victory.
Ohio State has had the best defense all season long, but Indiana has been right behind them the whole time. Indiana is hoping to get a win in this series for the first time since 1988. A win in the Big Ten Championship would secure a first-round bye for Indiana in the College Football Playoff as well.
