AJ Hawk dislikes that Ohio State is favored to win by more than a touchdown as he prefers an underdog mentality.

“I do not like it as a fan I feel like Nick sain when he said like it was tough to get your team ready when you are such a favorite because it's easy to kind of relax a little little bit but as a player I don't think you care I I know it's a different time now but as a player as coaches you don't car”

He feels nostalgic and conflicted about his long-term attachment to the University of Miami football program.

“I have a fondness born of nostalgia and discovery that was uh that >> and you get there with Jimmy Johnson, right? That you're you're uh you're after Schnellenburgger and all of that.”

He believes the Miami team was not performing well and was outplayed by Indiana.

“That whole organization.”
