Indiana Hoosiers Become First 16-0 Team 1894 Yale Bulldogs 

By

Prior to the triumph of the #1 Indiana Hoosiers last night in Miami, only one major college football team, the 1894 Yale Bulldogs, had finished a 16-0 season. As The Simpsons supervillain, C. Montgomery Burns is Yale class of 1914, perhaps he has an awareness of that famed team that came around 20 years before he graduated. To quote Mr. Burns, on his way home from … [Read more...] about Indiana Hoosiers Become First 16-0 Team 1894 Yale Bulldogs

Northwestern Wildcats Show Passing Game Promise in Loss to Indiana

By

Northwestern Wildcats fell, at home, to the 23rd ranked Indiana Hoosiers today, 41-24, but they did show major promise in what is the weakest aspect of their overall team- the passing game. Northwestern had two wide receivers bring their A-game in the loss, Bryce Kirtz, who caught 10 balls for 128 yards, and A.J. Henning, who had put up a 6-67, to go along with his two … [Read more...] about Northwestern Wildcats Show Passing Game Promise in Loss to Indiana

#23 Indiana Hoosiers at Northwestern Game Preview, Prediction

By

The #23 Indiana Hoosiers, who are a much better team than you probably give them credit for, come to Northwestern on Saturday in a matchup of the 2020 Big Ten Title game that we should have gotten, but didn't.

Indiana Hoosiers Star Romeo Langford Still Has Lottery Stock Despite Recent Slump

His performances and productivity have slipped a bit lately, but Romeo is probably the least of IU's problems right now. Hoosiers coach Archie Miller believes the criticism surround Romeo is much ado about nothing.  "He's got to … [Read more...] about Indiana Hoosiers Star Romeo Langford Still Has Lottery Stock Despite Recent Slump

Big Ten football power rankings: lipstick on a pig edition

By

During Big Ten football Saturdays like this, how do you spin what happened? How do you put lipstick on these pigs? And even though Northwestern out-gained an AWFUL Western Michigan team by just 126 yards, they've still earned the second slot. You can argue that a different Big Ten football team deserves to be there. But my argument is pretty solid for NU. Also, Illinois gave … [Read more...] about Big Ten football power rankings: lipstick on a pig edition

Wisconsin Badgers knock off top-seeded Indiana and improve resume in the process

By

Wisconsin Badgers forward Ryan Evans had the game of his life while leading the Badgers with 16 points, eight rebounds, four assists and four blocks in a 68-57 win over the top-seeded Indiana Hoosiers. The Badgers had an underwhelming end to the regular season with a home loss to Purdue and a needed buzzer-beater to fend off lowly Penn State. Yet, they've taken the United … [Read more...] about Wisconsin Badgers knock off top-seeded Indiana and improve resume in the process

The #3 Indiana Hoosiers defeated the #1 Michigan Wolverines 81-73 as Cody Zeller scored 19 points.
