The Indiana Hoosiers are 3-2 on the season, with losses to Ohio State and Penn State. First year head coach Tom Allen has the Hoosiers competing at a much higher level than we have seen in years prior. The born and bred Indiana coach displays a high level of intensity each week on the sideline that has his players believing they can win any given game. Michigan needs to take them seriously.
No statistics really jump out to excite when looking at their rankings, but the eye test jumps out a lot more. During the first half of their opener against the Buckeyes, it was a highly competitive game, the same can be said for their first half performance versus Penn State.
