It's just the second tie for No. 2 college football in the history of The Associated Press media poll. The other was Nov. 3, 1991, when Miami and Washington were tied behind No. 1 Florida State. That year, the Hurricanes and Huskies eventually shared the national title. Miami finished No. 1 in the AP poll and Washington took the top spot in the coaches poll.

By Rob eWitte · Monday, Nov. 15,2004 12:17 a.m.

The IU men's cross country team all but guaranteed its NCAA bid with a fifth-place finish in the NCAA Great Lakes Regional Saturday at Eastern Michigan University. The Hoosiers finished behind NCAA-favorites Wisconsin, Notre Dame, Butler and Michigan -- who just squeezed IU out of fourth by a scant five points, 111-116, in the NCAA's most challenging region.

Defense steps up for Indianapolis in rout of Texans

By Tyler Hoeppner and yler V. Hoeppner · Monday, Nov. 15,2004 12:12 a.m.

INDIANAPOLIS -- The defense that took the field for the Indianapolis Colts in their 49-14 win Sunday didn't look like the one that had been out there the previous eight games of the season. The one that showed up at the RCA Dome tied a season-low for points given up, had five sacks and forced four turnovers -- two returned for touchdowns.

Hoosier Heartbreak

By Dan Click · Monday, Nov. 15,2004 12:11 a.m.

The Hoosiers found out the hard way why the last yard to the end zone is called the "longest yard" in their 22-18 loss Saturday to Penn State on Senior Day. Facing third and nine, senior quarterback Matt LoVecchio winged a pass to fellow senior, wide receiver Travis Haney. Haney worked his way down the field stretching his 6-foot-5-inch frame for every inch toward the end zone before being pulled down just shy of the goal line.

Runners enter Regional meet with different priorities

By Rob DeWitte and Rob eWitte · Friday, Nov. 12,2004 12:50 a.m.

Just five years ago, the IU men's cross country team only hoped they would qualify for the NCAA Championships. This Saturday, instead of taking a last-ditch chance at qualifying and hoping luck falls on the Hoosiers' side, they will run with confidence, knowing that the 10,000-meter race at Eastern Michigan University is just a formality.

By Brian Janosch · Friday, Nov. 12,2004 12:46 a.m.

Seven. Seven deadly sins, seven days in a week. Seven: the name stolen from George Costanza. Seven is also the number of games that lies between the IU men's soccer team and a successful defense of last year's NCAA Championship season. The Hoosiers will begin that defense at 11:30 a.m. today against Michigan State in the semifinals of the Big Ten tournament in Ann Arbor, Mich.

Hoosiers take on Big Ten in singles tourney

By Eamonn Brennan · Friday, Nov. 12,2004 12:43 a.m.

Tennis, by nature, is a sport of the individual. Even when a team concept is at hand, success rides on the collection of singular efforts. The IU men's tennis team will test the strength of its individual parts this weekend as the Hoosiers close their fall season with the Big Ten Singles Championship at the Nielson Tennis Stadium at the University of Wisconsin.

One last hurrah. The 2004 class of Hoosier football players will suit up for the final time at Memorial Stadium Saturday against the 2-7 Penn State Nittany Lions. While 18 players will say goodbye to their home turf, all the players remain vigilant in their quest to beat Penn State despite the lack of a bowl bid. Senior safety Herana-Daze Jones said the team still has high expectations for Saturday's game, and he fully believes the Hoosiers can pull out a victory.

KEY BISCAYNE, Fla. -- Brian Cashman wanted to make this perfectly clear: The umpires were correct when they called Alex Rodriguez out for interference on that crazy play during the AL championship series.

Diminutive Bennett performs on, off field

By Bill Meehan · Thursday, Nov. 11,2004 12:04 a.m.

He is one of the smallest players in Division I football at 5-foot-5 and 167 pounds, but Lance Bennett plays big. Against Oregon this year, the sophomore's 98-yard kickoff return for a TD shifted the game's momentum and helped IU upset the ranked Ducks. It was the second-longest return in school history. Against Michigan State, his 94-yard punt return for six-points broke a 14-year-old Hoosier record. Bennett, who also is a top songwriter, ranks first in the Big Ten and fourth in the nation in yards per kick return at 31.41.

Big Ten soccer tournament begins today

By Steve Slivka · Thursday, Nov. 11,2004 12:01 a.m.

While the No. 4 IU men's soccer team does not begin its Big Ten Tournament title defense until 11:30 a.m. Friday, in Ann Arbor, Mich., the rest of the tournament gets underway this morning. Because the Hoosiers (14-3-1, 5-1 Big Ten) tied Ohio State (10-5-2, 5-1 Big Ten) for the best record in the conference this season, the Big Ten looks to head-to-head meetings. IU defeated the Buckeyes 2-0 in Columbus in October, securing the No. 1 seed and the first round bye for the Hoosiers in the Big Ten Tournament.
