Quarterbacks Kiel, Wright-Baker play late at Ohio State
The reserve quarterbacks produced the Hoosiers' only touchdown against the then-No. 2 Buckeyes last Saturday.
The reserve quarterbacks produced the Hoosiers' only touchdown against the then-No. 2 Buckeyes last Saturday.
The only touchdown the Hoosiers scored against the now-No. 1 Buckeyes provided some laughs on the sideline, senior quarterback Ben Chappell said.
The Hoosiers gained just 68 first-half yards on 29 plays against Ohio State — by far their worst offensive first half output this season.
The Buckeyes played to win the game, and the Hoosiers did not, which demonstrates how far apart the two football programs are, Justin Albers writes.
Ohio State quarterback Terrelle Pryor threw for a career-high in yards to lead now-No. 1 Ohio State (6-0, 2-0) to a 38-10 win against the Hoosiers (3-2, 0-2) on Saturday at Ohio Stadium.
Agile quarterback Terrelle Pryor and the rest of the second-ranked Buckeyes (6-0, 2-0) had a first-half field day on the IU (3-2, 0-2) defense in a 38-10 win, scoring 31 points before the break.
This Saturday, the Hoosiers will take on No. 2 Ohio State. For the Hoosiers (3-1, 0-1), a key to slowing the Buckeyes may be in IU’s offensive line.
If the IU defense didn’t get enough of a fast, mobile quarterback in last Saturday’s loss to Michigan, plenty more of the same medicine is in store for them this weekend.
The Hoosiers’ defense forces a three-and-out and another punt. No. 39 runs back out on the field, ready to break through the line yet again. This could be the one that changes the game. This is the life of No. 39 — this is the life of Brandon McGhee.
The Hoosiers aim to avoid beginning a losing streak after suffering their first defeat of the season last weekend against Michigan.
Ben Chappell set four records in his Saturday performance against Michigan. IDS football reporter Geoffrey Miller reports on Chappell and other news from Bill Lynch's press conference.
Eight plays of more than 20 yards led Michigan to a 42-35 victory against IU in front of a sell-out crowd of 52,929 people.
Senior quarterback Ben Chappell broke IU records in four categories, and junior wide receiver Tandon Doss posted the third-highest total of all-purpose yards in a game in school history, but neither contribution was enough to dismantle No. 19 Michigan.
The Hoosiers (3-1, 0-1) played a gutsy football game. But like they did so many times last season, they came up one play short in the end, Justin Albers says.
Michigan quarterback Denard Robinson ran in a 4-yard score with 17 seconds remaining Saturday to give the Wolverines a 42-35 victory against IU. Robinson finished with 494 total yards and 5 touchdowns.
Only a few tickets remain available for Saturday's home football game between IU and No. 19 Michigan. IU athletics director Fred Glass expects the game to sell out - the first for IU since 2007.
Columnist Justin Albers provides seven reasons why a victory against the Wolverines would be significant for IU.
Nobody has come close to stopping Denard Robinson this year. IU gets its shot this weekend when Michigan visits Bloomington for a battle of unbeaten Big Ten teams.
As IU’s backup quarterback to Kellen Lewis, the redshirt freshman Chappell was 1-for-1 for 14 yards after completing a pass in the blowout season opener against Indiana State.
When IU faces Michigan at 3:30 p.m. on Saturday, brothers Larry and Jibreel Black will reunite on the field as opponents.
