Bragging rights aside, this loss isn’t such a bad thing for IU Coach Kevin Wilson and the Hoosiers.
What makes this defense so frustrating to watch is the fact that it seemingly gets worse every week. Saturday’s 55-3 loss at No. 15 Michigan State was just the latest example.
After he failed to qualify academically at Ole Miss out of high school and to gain admission to North Carolina out of junior college, Houston constantly wondered if things would ever go his way.
It has certainly been an interesting year for the Big Ten — and that’s not including the scandals.
The Hoosiers showed up on Saturday, and, for the first time in a number of weeks, they improved. They lost 34-20 to Ohio State, but they improved.
I’m starting to think running the option wouldn’t be such a bad idea for the current Hoosiers — at least for the final three games of the season, just to see how it works.
The problem is Belcher never seemed interested in putting in the work to make it his team. It’s when things have gone bad for the Hoosiers this season that Belcher has come up the smallest.
Though the Hoosiers have one win in eight tries in Wilson’s first season, we are seeing signs the coach’s strategy is working. On offense, at least. “Working” is probably not the right word to describe the defense, but that’s a topic for another day.
The star quarterback was a source of hope, a reason to keep believing things will get better. Now, this hope might be gone before he ever even arrives in Bloomington.

Football columnist Justin Albers offers some MVPs and sleepers through IU's football season thus far.
It’s hard not to cringe when you see the final score: Wisconsin 59, IU 7.
Nobody has forgotten what happened at Camp Randall Stadium last year.
Surely that man on the sideline wasn’t Kevin Wilson, a coach known for his offensive expertise. The play calls looked so familiar I could have sworn it was a former coach who made them. It had to be.
I certainly wouldn’t want to be a co-defensive coordinator for IU this week. If Ekeler and Mallory are doing their homework on Illinois, they probably haven’t slept a wink all week. There’s that much work to do.
Football columnist Justin Albers grades IU's performance against Penn State.
IU sophomore Dusty Kiel saw his first start on Saturday against Penn State. IU sophomore Edward Wright-Baker has already seen four starts this season. So, who's IU's starting quarterback, Coach?
It’s too early to give up on IU Coach Kevin Wilson and his team. It’s been four games — four very lousy games, yes, but four games
The 2011-12 year is Nebraska's first season in the Big Ten Conference. Read to find out exactly what this means for IU and the Big Ten.
It was one of the oddest football games I’ve ever seen, and while IU came back (as it did against Virginia) and almost won at the end, it was another embarrassing loss — this time, 24-21 to North Texas.
