 Indiana football announced its homecoming game against Nebraska at Memorial Stadium on Oct. 19 is officially a sellout. The program made the announcement on social media Thursday afternoon.

It is the Hoosiers' first home sellout since 2021 and only their sixth of the past decade. The last time Indiana sold out a game was when it hosted No. 5 Ohio State and drew a crowd of 52,656.

The No. 18 Hoosiers are 6-0 at the bye week and are one of just 12 unbeaten teams left in the FBS. They are just one of three teams that haven't trailed this season.

The Hoosiers and Cornhuskers will play in front of a national audience as Big Noon Kickoff on FOX is set to broadcast the game with top commentary crew, Gus Johnson and Joel Klatt, on the call. It is the first time since 2022 that IU has hosted Big Noon Kickoff in Bloomington.
