Ohio State vs. Indiana preview and rapid fire: DL rotation, game picks and more

On this Friday game preview Buckeye Talk, Doug Lesmerises, Nathan Baird and Stephen Means make their picks for Ohio State hosting Indiana on Saturday, with the Buckeyes favored by 39.5 points. But first, because they are expecting a blowout, they take questions on a variety of topics, including: Is Ohio State now a defense-first team? What's with the defensive line rotation?

Stroud running the ball Kyle McCord playing time Why the offense seems like it's getting worse Comparing OSU to Michigan running backs What texters say about their balance of football and men's basketball passion And then they make their picks for the game.
