I am proud of the Hoosiers for gutting out another win. Can you imagine how frustrating it is to the players and coaches, too? I speculate that Hoover is injured, but tough. Cignetti and his teams are more than a breath of fresh air after over 50 years since the '67 Rose Bowl. We have caught lightening in a football stadium in B'town and are tough to play against everywhere we go! Enjoy it. I am. No one ever said that it was a cakewalk. And for the record, the rocket fuel is untouched. Spent Halloween with family outside around a fire in a front yard handing out eyeballs and special light treats and Milky-Way bars with webbing and spiders and laser lights and black lights and standing up greeting big and little kiddos and looking in our front window at the game. Spooky win!

Name, Image & Likeness (NIL)
Dave from Dayton replied to Class of '66 Old Fart's topic in Other Indiana Hoosiers Athletics
I did not steal the $6.36 billion in cryptocurrency. But, from here on out, IU NIL will be fully funded. Trust me. And I can now afford BTN+ and Peacock! -
OK. I agree. However, Indiana: The Hoosiers boast one of the country's most suffocating defenses, ranking second nationally in scoring defense (12.0 points allowed per game) and fourth against the run. They are significantly stingier across the board than Minnesota. Ohio State: The Buckeyes remain an elite defensive powerhouse, giving up just 13.4 points per game and locking down opponents near the top of the Big Ten. Michigan: Despite the Wolverines' offensive struggles, their defense is elite, allowing only 15.7 points per game and ranking near the top in passing yards allowed. Minnesota: The Golden Gophers are decent—surrendering 20.1 points per game (34th in the FBS) and excelling specifically in pass defense (11th nationally at 152.1 yards allowed per game). However, they have been noticeably softer against the run (123.6 rushing yards allowed per game) and rank lower in overall scoring and yardage defense than all three rivals.
