DIPRIMIO COLUMN – A ‘Higher Standard’ Has Hoosiers Seeking More

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. - Two wins from bowl eligibility.

You'd better believe that matters.

Four victories before October.

Keep that in mind.

Playing without four key players for the entire game, and missing defensive standout Marcelino Ball for the first half, all on the road, was a challenge Indiana (4-1) fully embraced.

And then won, 24-17 at Rutgers.

You want easy, grill marshmallows.

You want Big Ten victories, and the Hoosiers absolutely do, you do what's necessary to win and, on Saturday they did just that – it was their first win in a Big Ten road opener since 2007.
