Ohio State tops Indiana, clinches Big Ten East Division title

COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Jalin Marshall was the problem last week and the solution Saturday for Ohio State (No. 6 CFP, No. 7 AP). The freshman returned a punt 54 yards for the go-ahead touchdown in the third quarter and then added three late insurance scores to carry the Buckeyes past Indiana 42-27, the Hoosiers' sixth loss in a row. Marshall lost two fumbles in the Buckeyes' 31-24 win at Minnesota seven days before, but more than made up for those mistakes on a sunny and chilly day. "If it's an effort problem, Jalin Marshall won't play. And it's not an effort issue with him," coach Urban Meyer said. "He's a talented guy. That was good for his confidence." Marshall was ripped by Ohio State fans on social media after the fumbles. "It's very satisfying but I'm not satisfied with the season yet," he said.
