Reminds me of my high school team we could be a steel trap on D but couldn't score. We opened it up a bit to try and score and our D wasnt the same caliber.

gonna go undefeated and finish middle of the pack

Wish there was some better results.

Good news is we're still undefeated in the B1G.

Quick stat summary:   Header goal by Gutjahr at 18′ and a goal by McConnell at 82′.  IU with 14 total shots; OSU with only 5 total shots, but they made 2 of them count.

Very physical game as IU with 28 fouls and 4 yellow cards – McConnell, Thompson, Fives and Hyacenth.  Buckeyes with 12 fouls and 1 yellow card.  Got to think many of our fouls were frustration fouls.

Given OSU's record, this is another one we let slip away from us.

Earlier in the year the defense was great but it hasn't been the same since the Butler game

No. 7 Indiana Draws at Ohio State, 2-2

COLUMBUS, Ohio – The No. 7-ranked Indiana University men's soccer team played the Ohio State Buckeyes to a 2-2 draw on Saturday afternoon at Jesse Owens Memorial Stadium in Columbus, Ohio.
 
With the result, the Hoosiers move to 8-1-5 on the season overall and to 2-0-4 in Big Ten conference play. Ohio State goes to 4-9-1 overall and to 2-3-1 in league action.
 
Billy McConnell scored the equalizer for the Hoosiers in the 83^rd minute, while Jeremiah Gutjahr netted a goal in the 18^th for IU. Tallying assists for Indiana were McConnell, Francesco Moore and Cory Thomas.
 
Ohio State was able to take advantage of a bad break for the Hoosiers in the fifth minute to take a 1-0 lead. Trying to clear the ball, Webb's kick deflected off a OSU's Nate Kohl and headed towards goal. Webb and Kohl both dove for the ball at the goal line, but Kohl was able to get his foot to it, scoring for the Buckeyes.
 
In the 18^th minute, the Hoosiers answered as Gutjahr notched his first career goal to tie the match at 1-1. Working in the middle of the pitch, Moore played a great ball to McConnell on the right wing. The senior sent a great cross to the far post, finding a wide-open Gutjahr, who headed the ball back to the right from six yard out.
 
Less than two minutes later, the Buckeyes responded, retaking the lead on a goal from Ben Fitzpatrick, who scored from the top of the box to the left post.
 
With Ohio State packing it in defensively in the second half, the Hoosiers dominated possession, looking for an equalizer. Finally, in the 83^rd minute, IU found it.
 
On the attack, a OSU clearance came out to the foot of Thomas, who cracked a shot on goal from 30-yards out. His effort was deflected eight yards out by McConnell, who redirected the ball to the lower-right corner, tying the match at 2-2 and forcing overtime.
 
In the overtime periods, IU got off the only two shots. Tanner Thompson saw his curling effort go wide in the first overtime, while Andrew Gutman's effort in the final period was saved at the near post.
 
For the match, Indiana out-shot the Buckeyes, 14-5, getting seven shots on goal to just three for Ohio State. Corner kicks were 4-3 in favor of the Hoosiers.
 
In a physical match, Indiana was called for 28 fouls to just 12 for OSU. IU was also issued four yellow cards, while Ohio State was shown just one.
 
The No. 7 Hoosiers will be back in action on Friday, Oct. 21 when the team heads north to face Big Ten rival Wisconsin. Kickoff is scheduled for 7:00 p.m. ET.

While I think we have a plethora of problems on offense someone needs to explain the ridiculousness that is the RPI?

How do we gain 12 spots being Louisville than lose them back tying Ohio St. We started at 29 before Louisville and are now there again after the tie to OSU. I can understand if we lost to OSU being given a huge penalty, but for the RPI to see a tie with OSU to be as bad as a good win at Louisville is ridiculous. If we don't get Maryland in Big Ten tourney its unlikely we'll get a bye in NCAA tourney. We've done exactly what NCAA has asked in making a tough schedule (and winning a couple of them) but if bad ties are going to penalize you as much as a good win is going to reward you I have an issue (especially given the randomness of soccer). NCAA seriously needs to redo their RPI formula because at 8-1-5 with our schedule we should not equal a no. 29 RPI no matter how many bad ties we have. The biggest problem is the RPI is going to determine our tourney seeding and these ties are going to penalize us way more than they should given the victories we have. If I'm Todd Yeagley I'm razing hell about this to the NCAA to redo RPI formula to either reward good wins more or penalize bad ties less. Those 2 things are not equal but all year the RPI has treated them that way.

Now with all that said we need to play better and the fact that we can't put away inferior competition and score enough goals is a huge problem and must be addressed but the NCAA also needs to address their RPI formula.
