Big Ten football is here, and Indiana will kick things off on Saturday night with a prime time marquee match-up against one of the conference elites, Michigan State. The Spartans are 1-1 on the young season and are coming off a bye week. Michigan State started the season with a too-close-for-comfort home win over Utah State (38-31), and then lost a heartbreaker on the road to Arizona State (13-16). As one of the more experienced teams in the country, the choppy start has been somewhat of a disappointment for MSU and their fans. Today we take a look at what…

Relatively speaking, it isn’t all that often that a true freshman sees the field for significant playing time at the highest levels of college football. Of course it happens, but for an 18 year old kid just out of high school to compete with mostly 20 to 22 year old men, the talent level has to be pretty high. Perhaps it is in part out of necessity that no less than 12 true freshmen have become regulars through the first three weeks of Indiana’s 2018 season. IU is the 19th youngest team in the country and the fourth youngest in…

Statistics don’t always tell the whole story, but in the case of Indiana’s 2018 football team, the numbers seem to suggest that the Hoosiers are doing a few things at an elite national level. At the top of the list is an offense the puts together sustained drives. There are several different variables that go into a successful ball control offense, and the Hoosiers’ statistical profile through three games highlights many of them quite well. The IU defense has also been a pleasant surprise in many respects, especially when opposing teams are throwing the ball. Of course when it comes…

Three games into his senior year of high school, Stevie Scott seemed a long way from being one of the top running backs in the NCAA Division I Football Bowl Subdivision. And at least on the surface, Indiana wasn’t in the picture at all. Now three games into his freshman season of college football, Scott has put the country on notice — and he’s doing it from Bloomington. My how things have changed since Scott suffered a season and high school career ending foot injury just about a year ago during week three of his final high school season. Scott,…
