Curt Cignetti Just Told Indiana Exactly What It Needed to Hear Heading Into Rutgers

Indiana Football is 4-0, but Curt Cignetti isn't satisfied with what he's seeing from the Hoosiers.

After Indiana escaped Northwestern with a 29-23 win, Cignetti called his team inconsistent and made it clear that the Hoosiers won't accomplish their bigger goals if they continue playing this way.

Jacob Goins breaks down Cignetti's comments, Indiana's offensive mistakes, the missed opportunities against Northwestern and what has to improve as the Hoosiers prepare for their first road game against Rutgers.

Plus, Indiana's upcoming trip to Nebraska officially received the Big Noon Kickoff treatment. Why could avoiding a night game in Lincoln be a major advantage for Curt Cignetti and the Hoosiers?

And the Big Ten has implemented a new basketball eligibility rule restricting certain players with NBA, G League and WNBA experience from competing in the conference. Jacob explains the rule and what it means for Indiana Basketball.
