Metrodome notoriously unkind to visiting Hoosiers

·

The last time the IU football team knocked off the Minnesota Golden Gophers in Minneapolis, the price of a gallon of gas was about $1.08. Now at .500 through four games, IU faces Minnesota, who “is a good football team and a much-improved football team from a year ago,” said IU coach Bill Lynch. IU pummeled Minnesota 40-20 at Memorial Stadium last season, but this weekend, the team plays in Minneapolis, a place where the Hoosiers haven’t won in 15 years. This time around, there could be some fresh faces taking the field for the Cream and Crimson.

Fantasy football is ruining my life

·

Fantasy football is literally ruining my life. Sure, this isn’t a new development for all you devout fantasy football followers, and even I have been charmed by the leagues I’ve been in over the years. Yet in the past, by week 10 of the NFL season I lost interest, resulting in a string of embarrassing losses.
