1. A win is a win. Plenty of teams would love to be undefeated right now.

2. I think Ezekiel's afterburners combined with Indiana running a run blitz with poor hat placement helped vault him back into the Heisman contention.

3. I have a ton of respect for Kevin Wilson and what he has done at Indiana. Those guys aren't scared of Ohio State like they used to be. After they hung 49 points on us in 2012, I think their mindset changed. Coach Meyer got a lot of ideas from Wilson the year after he beat Northwestern when he was at BG and Wilson was Randy Walker's OC. Northwestern was doing some very cutting edge stuff back then.

4. We need to get our throwing game in order. It is the #1 priority right now. It is amazing how it has been to this point.

5. I think teams are going to continue to try and make Cardale throw the ball to beat us. Teams will not let Ezekiel just pound the ball. Indiana was trying to aggressively stop the running game and got gashed when one guy didn't make a simple play in his gap.

6. Our turnovers have to stop. It is getting ridiculous. We even had the bad habit in the National Title game, but we overpowered Oregon. Something that is easy to correct and I am sure UFM is not happy about.
