Daily College Football Links (December 10, 2020)

Good morning, Hoosier fans. It’s been an incredibly tough 48 hours to be an Indiana football fan. Coronavirus has effectively had its way with the Old Oaken Bucket game, and the Big Ten Title game has been stolen from IU. We’ll keep you updated as the team halts the outbreak and hopefully returns to practice soon. Follow us on Facebook and Twitter @Hoosier_Huddle.

For most of the class of 2021 Hoosiers, they don’t start until spring. We’re here to keep you updated with the 13 future Hoosiers’ weekly performances and playoff schedules.

If you have any links or stories you’d like to share please email them to TheHoosierHuddle@gmail.com. We have also included some favorite football reads for your enjoyment.
