College Football Week 6 Power Rankings

The Buckeyes are coming off a 38-17 win where they struggled against the Hoosiers. Yes, they won by 21 points, but Ohio State had its fair share of frustration at home on Saturday.

Most of that frustration came in the passing game. Usually Ohio State moves the ball through the air at ease, but this week Indiana’s defense showed otherwise.

Quarterback J.T. Barrett was held to just 93 yards passing, only having nine completions on 21 attempts. He threw for one touchdown and one interception.

But if it’s not working through the air, keep it on the ground, and the Buckeyes did that with ease Saturday.

Barrett rushed for 137 yards and a touchdown, on a career high 26 attempts. Their running backs Curtis Samuel and Mike Weber had good games as well, rushing for a combined 153 yards and three touchdowns.

It must be nice to be Urban Meyer. The offense not producing through the air? Fine, keep it on the ground and let your offensive line go to work.

It’s not much of a surprise that Meyer has his team 6-0 and second in the current AP Poll. This Ohio State team looks destined to be in the College Football Playoff, but with games like Wisconsin and Michigan looming there is no time to let up.
