The Indiana University Athletic Department announced for some time that Indiana Football would have a spring game. Here are details about the game format, how to watch it, and parking if you decide to attend in person.

Format

The game will be offense v. defense instead of a traditional split roster scrimmage.

  • Extra Point - 1 point
  • Field Goal - 3 points
  • Turnover Gained - 4 points
  • Defensive Stop - 3 points
  • Safety - 2 points

The game is free to the public with free parking in lots 2, 4, and 12.
