Bowl Dream Coming True for IU’s Scott
IUHoosiers.com
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Stevie Scott III is pumped.
Can you blame him?
Indiana's 6-2, 231-pound powerhouse of a running back is oh, so ready for Ole Miss in Saturday's 35th Outback Bowl game.
For one thing, Scott has never played in a bowl before. An injury kept him out of last season's TaxSlayer Gator Bowl loss to Tennessee.
For another, the Hoosiers (6-1) haven't won a bowl game since 1991, which was nine years before Scott was born.
"I definitely am very excited," he says. "I cannot wait. It is like a dream come true for me playing in a bowl game."
IU has lost five-straight postseason games, including last year's one-point heartbreaker. You'd better believe players are aware.
