Indiana punter James Evans had never played American football prior to the 2021 season. After Saturday night, he is much better acclimated to the game. Unable to get anything going offensively, IU lost 24-0 to Penn State at Beaver Stadium on Saturday night in University Park, Pa. in front of an announced crowd of 105,951. The Hoosiers were shut out for the first time since a 58-0 Oct. 14, 2000 loss at Michigan. Indiana had a chance to put points on the board early after falling behind 7-0 when safety Raheem Layne intercepted Penn State’s Sean Clifford in the first…
UPDATE: Tom Allen provides the latest on Penix’s status on Monday Indiana quarterback Michael Penix, Jr.’s long history with injuries continued on Saturday evening at University Park, Pa. Penix was tackled as he scrambled to his left and he fell hard on his left shoulder. He was attended to on the field and went directly to the locker room and did not return in IU’s 24-0 loss to Penn State. The redshirt junior was 10-of-22 for 118 yards and an interception before the third quarter exit. “It is definitely with his throwing shoulder, so we will continue to evaluate that…

The roles have reversed in 2021, a year after the Michael Penix reach for the pylon. Fueled by a 2020 win over Penn State, Indiana went on to one of its best seasons ever while PSU’s slow start wrecked its season. Now it is the Hoosiers who have started slow, and Penn State has legitimate CFP aspirations. While the Lions would like nothing more than to prove the 2020 loss in Bloomington was a fluke, Indiana hopes it can put itself back on the national map with a primetime upset on the road. INDIANA (2-2) at No. 4/6 PENN STATE…
As we wait for the 2021 rematch, take a look back at an IU win for the ages. Indiana opened the 2020 season with its first win over a top 10 team in 33 years. In a fourth quarter and overtime that had enough drama for an entire season, IU stunned No. 8 Penn State 36-35. Trailing 35-28 after Penn State scored first in the overtime period, IU responded with a touchdown and decided to go for two and the win. Quarterback Michael Penix escaped the pocket and stretched out for the pylon. The ruling on the field was a…
In with the old, and in with the new. It was 40 years ago that the iconic IU men’s basketball floating head schedule poster made its debut, printed in advance of the 1981-82 season. The posters have been printed every season since, creating an anticipated fan favorite and a collector’s piece for some Hoosier basketball diehards. IU basketball fans will have their first opportunity to get the 2021-22 version of the poster on Saturday at Hoosier Hysteria. So what’s new? This year’s 18″ x 24″ schedule poster has evolved into a Name, Image and Likeness opportunity for members of the…

Much was made about the wave of Indiana players who put their names in the transfer portal in the days that followed the firing of former head coach Archie Miller. There was a new entry seemingly every day as a cloud of uncertainty hovered over the program. Some stayed, some left, but all made an understandable decision to make sure they knew what their options were in the event they weren’t happy with the new coach, or weren’t welcomed back. We simply live in a different era. Blind loyalty to the name on the front of the jersey is largely…
