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.

The Indiana Hoosiers are 10-0 and ranked 5th in the College Football Playoff rankings. That temporarily parks the Hoosiers as the number seven seed in the 12-team playoff bracket. Of course, there is lots of football still to be played including a massive game for IU at Ohio State next Saturday on FOX. IU has a bye week to rest up and that means Indiana fans get the weekend to focus on rooting for other results that could help the Hoosiers make the College Football Playoff.

The Hoosiers needed a big play. With 5:33 left in the 4th quarter, Indiana was nursing a 17-15 lead over the Michigan Wolverines. The usually red-hot Hoosier offense had fallen stagnant in the second half, allowing the Wolverines to score 12 unanswered points, cutting the IU lead to just two. To make matters worse, starting punt returner Myles Price had left the game with an injury and did not return. The Hoosiers were in need of a spark. Enter Ke’Shawn Williams.
