Somehow no one was happy

By Alex Hickey · Monday, Sept. 29,2003 2:37 a.m.

In all reality, I should be running through the Arboretum naked right now. That's the promise that I made, should IU have beaten the Wolverines at the Big House on Saturday.

That turnover mentality carried over, as IU had two picks and two forced fumbles in the first half against Michigan. Unfortunately for the Hoosiers, the offense couldn't capitalize on any of those opportunities. IU lost 31-17 in a lackluster offensive performance, despite a number of chances.
