Start of third quarter:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Halftime Notes:
*Whop Philyor is dominating with nine catches for 107 yards. He's been the only reliable source of offense for IU.
*IU's defense can't prevent the big play to slow down Nebraska's offense.
*If IU can't get the run game going they are going to struggle even more on offense. Having only 35 rush yards--28 coming off two runs--is putting a lot of pressure on Ramsey to execute in the pass game.
*Ramsey has looked solid in the start as he's thrown for 165 yards on 15-of-19 passing. There is a real possibility that his interception at the end of the half can come back to haunt IU and be the deciding factor in the game.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
