Indiana proved it belonged in the national conversation on Saturday afternoon in Columbus. But the Hoosiers were also reminded just how difficult it is to knock off the nation’s elite. IU did what it has done every week — generate sacks and takeaways on defense, while attacking through the air on offense.
