Daily College Football Links (December 22, 2020)

Happy Tuesday, No. 7 Hoosiers fans! Although it wasn’t the NY6 bowl they very clearly earned, the Hoosiers are headed to the Outback Bowl on January 2nd. In 11 short days, your Big Ten Coach of the Year, Tom Allen and the Hoosiers are set to face Ole Miss in Tampa at 12:30 ET.

Last week the IU football squad gained 14 players on early signing day. We have gotten to know these players and have watched them closely this year and have made profiles on each of the 14 guys who made their commitment official last week. Get to know them here.
