Huskers in Indiana Dumpster

The Indiana Hoosiers dominated the Nebraska Cornhuskers with a staggering 56-7 victory, improving to 7-0 for the season, while Nebraska fell to 5-2. Indiana showcased superior coaching and execution, outgaining the Huskers 495 yards to 304 and forcing five turnovers. Key players for Indiana included Justice Ellison, who rushed for two touchdowns and 105 yards, and quarterback Kurtis Rourke, who threw for 189 yards before halftime. Nebraska's struggles were compounded by their inability to capitalize on offensive opportunities and a lackluster defense, which allowed five rushing touchdowns. This defeat marks Nebraska's worst loss since 2016 and raises questions about head coach Matt Rhule's rebuilding efforts in just his second year. With Indiana's impressive start, they are now contenders for a playoff spot, having transformed their roster through effective recruiting and transfer strategies.
