Rejoice Hoosier Fans! IU's first three games kickoff no earlier than 4pm. That means plenty of tailgating and football.

The Indiana Hoosiers found out two more start time for 2015 games on Friday morning. The Hoosiers will open up their season against Southern Illinois with a 4 p.m. kickoff on Saturday September 4th, which will be televised by ESPNews. IU will return to the 4 p.m. TV slot again versus Western Kentucky on September 19th also on ESPNews. The late afternoon start times will give Hoosier fans, young and old, a nice long morning and afternoon of tailgating festivities, while providing an early enough end where students can flock to the Kirkwood after the game with plenty of time to spare.
