So Hoover might be able to get some good quality target practice with is new receivers.  Good to know

I suspect Hoover and Grant Wilson will both be getting some.target practice. Although by the time Wilson comes in, we might be handing it off every play.

During yesterday's player pressers, Mike Schumann from The Daily Hoosier asked both Carter Smith and Bones Jones what was the low point during their IUFB tenure and both of them said this game. 
 

Also, it was a black uniform game. This might not be a popular take but IU black uniforms in any sport should never be worn, ever.

As alternate uniforms go, I really liked the IU black unis.

I could be wrong, hope I am, but could see this being a less-than-stellar crowd. Going to be hotter. than. hell. on Saturday. At the very least I don’t see it being a crowd that sticks around for much of a blowout.

Nothing groundbreaking, but Cig with Fisch is a little more laid back and open and conversational.

I will be dousing myself and son with water.  A moist IU Football tee shirt is the ticket....and stay hydrated.  I just hope there is a breeze.
