Indiana Football vs Nebraska: 3 keys to the game
By Adam Childs
The Indiana football program is coming off a big road win at Maryland. Can they do it again when they travel to Nebraska on Saturday?
The Hoosiers went to College Park last Saturday and came away with their first road win of the year. They did it with Peyton Ramsey having to come in for the injured MIchael Penix Jr. Ramsey did a great job in relief throwing for 193 yards and a touchdown. After losing his starting job at the beginning of the year it was a sweet win for Ramsey.
Stevie Scott also shined for the Hoosiers running for 108 yards and two touchdowns. The offense turned the ball over just once, an interception by Penix, outgained the Terrapins by 137 yards and held on to the ball for 11 more minutes. It was a good all-around game for the Hoosiers.
After a crazy first half of football and the Hoosiers defense giving up 21 points, they settled down in the second half giving up just seven points. They made big stop after big stop and came up with a big interception with a minute to play that sealed the 34-28 win.
It was not only a big road win for the Hoosiers but also got them to five wins, just one short of a bowl berth, with five games to play. Indiana looks like they are on their way to their first bowl berth in three years. They would love to clinch a bowl in Lincoln on Saturday.
Not only are thee Hoosiers playing well, but people are starting to take notice as the Hoosiers even got a vote in the coaches poll. It may seem like a small thing, but for the Hoosiers, it is the step in the right direction.
So what do the Hoosiers need to do to go into Nebraska and get their second straight road win and third overall? We take a look at the three keys to the game.
