Belief in an IUFB Breakthrough Starts with the 1967 Rose Bowl Team

Breakthrough. If you are an Indiana Football fan you have seen this word plastered everywhere heading into the 2017 season. Tom Allen wants his players and coaches to believe that a breakthrough is possible and he wants the fans to buy into that belief as well.

The Hoosiers have been close over the last couple of seasons, but have ultimately had fallen short against top-25 opponents and in a couple of bowl games. The last shortcoming was a 24-22 loss to Utah in the Foster Farms Bowl and that was when Tom Allen put his foot down and said to himself, “I’m sick and tired of being close.”

Throwback Thursday: Penn State 45 Indiana 31

Throwback Thursday: Penn State 45 Indiana 31

Written By Sammy Jacobs (@Hoosier_Huddle)

We have reached week 10 in our 2016 Throwback Thursday series and today we look back at Indiana’s 45-31 loss to the eventual Big Ten champion Penn State Nittany Lions. Indiana had caught the turnover bug at Rutgers the week before and the symptoms were carried back to Bloomington as the Hoosiers coughed up five fumbles. Had Indiana held on to just half of those fumbles, the Hoosiers probably walk away with the win. This was one of Richard Lagow’s better games as he threw for two touchdowns and no interceptions. His day could’ve been much better had some of his receivers hung on to passes that would have either been huge gains or touchdowns. The defense did its job bottling up Saquon Barkley and taking the ball away twice, but it wasn’t enough after Trace McSorley started hitting the deep passes he missed earlier in the game. When fans look back at this game, it’ll be another case of shoulda, coulda, woulda.
