Three Things: Indiana football loses to Rutgers

There was a time, as recently as 2015, when losing to Rutgers could be an interesting, even mildly entertaining viewing experience. Sure, we knew the defense would be a disaster, as always under Kevin Wilson, but at least we got to seem a handful of future NFL players ball out on offense.

Today is a stark reminder of how far we’ve come since then. Today’s win was Rutgers’ first home win against a Big Ten opponent since 2017, and it came easily for the Scarlet Knights. After going up 14-0 in the first five minutes of the game, Indiana scored just three points for the rest of the game, eventually falling 24-17.
