Indiana Football Defeats FIU in Season Opener
The Indiana Hoosiers football team started its season under new head coach Curt Cignetti with a convincing 31-7 victory over Florida International University at Memorial Stadium. Indiana quickly established dominance, leading 21-0 in the first quarter, thanks to two rushing touchdowns by Ty Son Lawton and a touchdown pass from quarterback Kurtis Rourke. The Hoosiers outgained FIU significantly, with a total yardage of 414 to 182, although they faced challenges with nine penalties totaling 80 yards. Rourke completed 15 of 24 passes for 180 yards and one touchdown, while the rushing attack proved effective with three players rushing for over 68 yards each. Indiana's next matchup is against Western Illinois, an FCS opponent struggling with a 0-22 record over the past two seasons. Cignetti emphasized the need for continued improvement, particularly in reducing penalties as the season progresses.
