BLOOMINGTON, Ind. — Ohio State beat Indiana 19-15 on Saturday.
Somehow.
That included playing the last part of the game without starting quarterback Julian Sayin, who hurt his throwing arm on a sack with about eight minutes to play. He was back on the sideline before the end of the game with his right arm in a sling.
Ryan Day said after the win that Sayin will be out several weeks. He didn’t specify the injury and said he didn’t have any more information at this point. The Buckeyes are off next week before a trip to USC and coming back home against Oregon.
True freshman Luke Fahey came in the game on a second-and-28 and scrambled for eight yards and drew a personal foul penalty while sliding down. Suddenly, the Buckeyes had a first down again.
Fahey then threw two passes and didn’t complete either, but the Buckeyes were able to hang on.
Sayin finished 15 of 29 for 235 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions.
I’ll gloss over all the qb ugliness and be an optimist: Was that the best special teams performance in the last 3 years?
Both teams made all sorts of mistakes, very weird game.
