Indiana Hoosiers football hit their perfectly-timed bye week just as key injuries stack up and the regular season reaches its defining stretch. Can Curt Cignetti's team use this crucial rest to heal playmakers like Elijah Saratt and Drew Evans, and sharpen their edge for the Purdue rivalry, the Big Ten Championship showdown against Ohio State, and a possible College Football Playoff run? Jacob Goins explores how this break may unlock fresh strategies, boost mental toughness, and set the stage for a historic finish.

Jacob Goins spotlights a unique program milestone—Indiana's football, men’s, and women’s basketball teams are all undefeated.
