The Ohio State Buckeyes just completed another impressive week where they dominated the Indiana Hoosiers on primetime in Bloomington, Indiana to the tune of 54-7. This team has clearly hit its stride and the Indiana victory may not be the most impressive resume builder, but the fashion in which the beatdown occurred strengthens the Ohio State playoff argument.

Let’s move on from the Saturday college football talk and follow-up with how some former Buckeyes competed for their NFL teams in week seven. As we do every week, we provide a brief breakdown of how most of the notable former Buckeyes are playing and we will dive into the offensive side of the ball first!
