Location: Saturday October 18th /3:30pm/ Memorial Stadium/ (Bloomington, IN) 

Why They Played:  The Hoosiers and Spartans will now meet every year and battle for the Old Brass Spittoon, which should really help this trophy game gain some traction at the two schools.

Three & Out Offense: Week 8 vs. Michigan State

It is homecoming this weekend in Bloomington and the leaves are changing. The Spartans of Michigan State come to town as the sixth ranked team in the nation and will face off the 3-3 Hoosiers for the Old Brass Spittoon. It has been a rough week in Hoosier Nation with the announcements that starting quarterback Nate Sudfeld is out for the year and his backup Chris Covington is likely out for this week. This leaves the offense in the hands of a former male model from California who has yet to take a snap in his college career. That guy is true freshman Zander Diamont, who won Los Angeles City Player of the Year and threw for 47 touchdowns in his senior year of high school. So what does this offense have to do to pull the most unlikely of upsets on this Hoosier homecoming weekend?

Indiana's Worst Fears Are Realized, but Who Replaces Sudfeld?

When junior quarterback Tre Roberson announced in June that he was transferring from Indiana the Hoosiers worst nightmare was a long-term injury to Nate Sudfeld. Well, that nightmare is now a reality and the Hoosiers will have to scramble to replace his production. Sudfeld ends his 2014 season with 1,151 passing yards six touchdowns and three interceptions. For his career at IU Sudfeld has thrown for 4,306 yards 34 touchdowns and 13 interceptions in 25 games including 14 starts.
