Throw Back Thursday: Week 1 Indiana State

Throw Back Thursday: Week 1 Indiana State

Welcome back to our “Throw Back Thursday” series where we take a look back at every game from the 2013 season.  Today we start off with the Week One 73-35 victory over Indiana State.

 

How was that for some opening night fireworks?  The Hoosiers covered all the bases both good and bad.  There was a running game and an aerial attack that could not be stopped.  There was also a defense that forced two turnovers.  However there were bad penalties, stupid turnovers, and missed tackles.  The Hoosiers set records for the most points scored at Memorial Stadium by any team, returned their first punt for a touchdown since 2006, and scored more points in the first half since 1949.  Overall it was a fun night, but there are still many aspects that need to be cleaned up.

In Year Four It Is Time For The Next Step

In Year Four It Is Time For The Next Step

Expectations can be a funny thing.  They can either ignite a fire under a fan base or drive them away like a plague.  This will be a very different Indiana football team that takes the field on August 30th against Indiana State.  Gone are both coordinators.  Defensive boss Doug Mallory was fired in January and replaced with Brian Knorr, while offensive Coordinator Seth Littrel left Bloomington for Chapel Hill.  The offense should not look too different scheme wise as Kevin Wilson promoted from within as Kevin Johns now takes the reigns.  However the Hoosiers lose a multitude of talent as they lose four 1,000-yard receivers in Kofi Hughes, Cody Latimer, Duwyce Wilson, and Ted Bolser and their second string running back in Stephen Houston.
