Indiana would currently be the No. 7 seed overall and host a playoff game against No. 10 seed Ole Miss if the season ended today.

The Hoosiers will shake up the rankings next week regardless of the outcome of the Ohio State matchup on Saturday afternoon, as the Buckeyes remained at No. 2 overall.

The undefeated Indiana Hoosiers are two-score underdogs this weekend in Columbus and have small margin for error. Simply IU cannot get blown out on Saturday or they may be on the outside looking in when all is said and done.

After a top five show down with No. 2 Ohio State, the Hoosiers will close out the season against the Purdue Boilermakers in the annual battle for the Old Oaken Bucket on Nov. 30 at Memorial Stadium.

It's simple for Indiana win and get it and leave no doubt! #NeverDaunted
