At Indiana, the barometer for a successful football season is simple. Win six games and make a bowl game and you can chalk one up in the success column. Anything less, in most cases, will be considered a disappointment.
There’s an excitement around the Indiana football program this year as Tom Allen enters his third season at the helm. By Indiana’s standards, he’s been crushing it on the recruiting trail. A new offensive coordinator in Kalen DeBoer appears poised to revamp an offense that has struggled to innovate and move the ball effectively when necessary. Top to bottom, the current roster is one of the deepest that Indiana has had in quite some time, and it’s a roster that could potentially result in the Hoosiers making it back to the bowl game for the first time under Allen.
