File this under ‘Frustrating Loss’ for the Indiana Hoosiers. IU was doomed by digging a 17-0 hole while failing to take advantages in starting field position ultimately falling 27-22. The Hoosiers did a tremendous job of holding Nebraska to just 10 points in the last three quarters and the defense gave IU a chance to take the lead when Tony Fields picked off a pass, but conservative play calling netted five yards and zero points. The Indiana run game was ineffective and Indiana averaged just 4.8 yards per play. The more I re-watch these games, the more I am unimpressed with last year’s play selection.
