IU started well, but critical errors on special teams gave Ohio State 14 points with a dropped snap and a touchdown return Caleb Downs. IU needed to show they belonged in the College Football Playoff. Unfortunately, that decision is not in their hands anymore.

Special Teams Dooms Hoosiers in 38-15 Defeat to Buckeyes

Written by: TJ Inman

The Indiana Hoosiers entered Saturday’s game against Ohio State with an opportunity to land a spot in the Big Ten Championship Game as well as go a long way towards locking up a bid for the College Football Playoff. The Hoosiers started the game exceptionally well but a pair of critical special teams blunders and an inability to protect for Kurtis Rourke led to a potentially very costly loss for Indiana as they dropped to 10-1 on the season and lost their 30th straight game to the Ohio State Buckeyes.

Written by Alec Keezer

On September 13, 2003 NC State rolled into the Horseshoe with a young Curt Cignetti on staff.

The Wolfpack, led by Phillip Rivers, fell “about six inches short of the goaline”.

It’s funny that you can still hear the slight sting in Coach Cig’s voice when he talked about that game. Over 21 years later and he still carries that experience with him.
