Halftime Score: Ohio State 44, Indiana 7

The Ohio State Buckeyes aren't having any sort of "bye week hangover."

C.J. Stroud led the Buckeyes down the field for six consecutive scoring drives to start the game. Stroud looks like Superman again tonight, thanks to unbelievable throws like this one to Jaxon Smith-Njigba.

Stroud is doing a remarkably good job of moving his feet and keeping his eyes down field. He finished the half (on a very rainy night) 16-for-21 with 201 yards, three touchdowns and zero interceptions.

Meanwhile, TreVeyon Henderson is putting Maurice Clarrett's freshman touchdown record in serious jeopardy and we are barely half way through the season. Henderson scored three times in the first half and now has 14 TD's on the season.

The offensive line is mauling Indiana at the line of scrimmage. Ohio State doesn't have a single negative play.

On the flip side, the defensive line is devouring all three Indiana quarterbacks that played. Jack Tuttle, Donaven McCulley and Grant Gremel were sacked four times. Ohio State also had eight total tackles for loss in the first half. The Hoosiers averaged 1.9 yards per play.
