Even though Indiana came up one score short in its comeback bid against Ohio State on Saturday, Hoosiers wide receiver Ty Fryfogle has been named the Big Ten Offensive Player of the Week for the second week in a row.
Fryfogle earns the honor from the conference after he caught seven passes for 218 yards – the third-most receiving yards ever for a player against Ohio State – and three touchdowns in Indiana's 42-35 loss.

All three of his touchdowns came on big plays, as he beat the Buckeye defense for catches of 63, 56 and 33 yards.
In the process, Fryfogle became the first wide receiver in Big Ten history to record back-to-back 200-yard games. In Indiana's last three games alone, Fryfogle has caught 25 passes for 560 yards and six touchdowns.
