Back on Oct. 11 Indiana ended Oregon’s 18-game home winning streak, and the dominoes have fallen since to give the Hoosiers yet another hard to imagine distinction. Missouri and Boise State both saw their own lengthy home winning streaks come to an end in the weeks that followed. And then on Saturday afternoon, Alabama lost 23-21 to Oklahoma at Bryant-Denny Stadium to snap their own 17-game run on their home turf. That leaves Indiana’s 15 straight wins at Memorial Stadium as the current longest run of consecutive home wins.  IU’s streak aligns with the Curt Cignetti era, as the Hoosiers…

Kurtis Rourke’s record didn’t even last a year. With his fourth touchdown pass Saturday against Wisconsin, IU quarterback Fernando Mendoza set the new Indiana single-season touchdown pass record. Mendoza found a wide open Omar Cooper, Jr. in the end zone to give him the record-setting 30th touchdown pass of the season.  It was part of a strong performance by the redshirt junior signal caller, who completed 22 of 24 throws for 299 yards and four touchdowns. No. 15 → No. 3 for six. @qb_fernando | @TheOmarCooper | #IUFB | 📺: @BigTenNetwork pic.twitter.com/qlT5GU8ygq — Indiana Football (@IndianaFootball) November 15, 2025 “It…

Update: Sarratt is officially questionable and warming up on the field. There are no surprises on Indiana’s Big Ten availability report: The original story follows: IU appears likely to be without start wideout Elijah Sarratt again on Saturday.

“People don’t know but I have a little bit of speed, so I feel like I’m a little bit of deep threat.” That was IU tight end Riley Nowakowski when he met with the media in August during fall camp. Nowakowski made the comment with a playful grin that seemed part unsure of himself, and part you just wait and see. We found out. With the game on the line Saturday at Penn State, who did IU have on the field as a receiver in their four verticals package? None other than former Wisconsin walk-on linebacker, turned fullback, turned tight…

Whatever the future holds, the last two seasons of Indiana football will never be forgotten.

IU will hold a ceremony on the field at Memorial Stadium at 11:30 a.m. ET — 30 minutes before kickoff vs. Wisconsin — to honor the players who are out of eligibility this season.  Their families will be on the field with them. Headlined by two-year key contributors Elijah Sarratt, Aiden Fisher, Mikail Kamara and…

Indiana basketball continues to look the part of a completely overhauled program, running away from what should end up being a solid Milwaukee team. The Hoosiers pulled out to a 19-8 lead eight minutes into the game, and from there the margin ranged from 5 to 15 points as Milwaukee hung around in the first half.  The Panthers kept battling, and pulled to within nine — 53-44 with 17:22 left in the game.  But then IU pulled away for good.  The lead swelled to 19 with 10:23 left and kept growing from there to as much as a 33-point margin…
