I can’t believe I have to say this, but no, IU will not be sitting their star QB for their top-5 matchup against Ohio State this Saturday. Yet this was ESPN pundit Joey Galloway’s take on Tuesday’s CFP show. Galloway said, “If I’m Indiana, I don’t know if I’m playing Rourke against Ohio State…What could keep Indiana out of this? Getting their quarterback hurt.” At the same time that Galloway was floating this contender for worst take of the year, Kurtis Rourke was speaking to the media in Bloomington, excited at the opportunity of a top-5 matchup.

Aiden Fisher has been dominating on the field this season and loves everything about it. During IU’s last game against Michigan, the offense was struggling in the second half, but when they needed the defense to bring the intensity, they brought it. Aiden Fisher has been a key leader for the defense all season and played amazingly when the team needed him most, getting in on 14 tackles against the Wolverines.

The 2024 college football season has been a crazy one to say the least, but one of the most astounding teams this season are the Indiana Hoosiers.

The Indiana Hoosiers enjoyed a well-earned rest this weekend. The Hoosiers sit at 10-0 heading into the massive clash against #2 Ohio State. A very strong argument could be made that this game is the biggest Indiana University football game since at least 1967. IU is a 10.5-point underdog to the Buckeyes in Columbus. A victory in Columbus would very likely send the Hoosiers to Indianapolis to compete for the Big Ten Championship while a loss would leave IU’s fate at the mercy of the selection committee. How would the Playoff Committee view an 11-1 Indiana team? That will largely depend on the nature of the loss.
