Five Thoughts on matchup between no. 17 Indiana vs. Rutgers

With Rutgers having a big opportunity on Saturday against no. 17 Indiana, I’ve put together five thoughts on what the Hoosiers showed on tape in their upset win over then no. 8 Penn State in the season opener for both teams.

  • Indiana’s offensive line had trouble blocking Penn State’s front four. Early in the game, Penn State kept seven guys back in coverage so Indiana gave the ball to punishing runner Stevie Scott and struggled to throw downfield, settling for dump offs. IU did go up 17-7 by halftime, however two scoring drives were on short fields after turnovers.
