The Big Ten championship race is coming down to the wire, with two weeks remaining in the regular season and four teams in the hunt for title game berths.

Two of those teams—Indiana and Ohio State—meet Saturday in what could very well be a preview of matchups to take place in the new CFP format in December.

The No. 5 Hoosiers enter the matchup on the heels of arguably the greatest season in program history, whereas the No. 2 Buckeyes are seeking to avenge their lone loss to national title favorite Oregon five weeks ago.

Indiana has yet to lose this season, routing all 10 of its opponents, including statement wins over Michigan, Washington and Nebraska in the past month. But Ohio State is the Hoosiers’ first ranked opponent of the year and the team’s biggest test en route to a potential CFP appearance.

The Buckeyes have been dominant as well, Oregon loss aside, taking down No. 3 Penn State on Nov. 2 in Happy Valley before beating Purdue and Northwestern by a combined 76-7 margin. Quarterbacks Kurtis Rourke of IU and Will Howard of OSU will meet for the first time in conference play with a potential championship game appearance on the line.
