It Just Got SERIOUS For Indiana Football... Are the Hoosiers Ready?

Playtime is OVER for Indiana Football.

The Hoosiers are 5-0 after dominating Rutgers, but the easiest portion of the schedule is officially behind them. Now comes the stretch that could define Indiana's season.

Nebraska on the road. Ohio State in Bloomington. Michigan in the Big House.

Is Curt Cignetti's team ready?

Jacob Goins breaks down why he believes Indiana IS ready for its biggest tests of the season, what the Hoosiers proved during their first five games and which questions still need to be answered as the competition gets significantly tougher.

Josh Hoover is coming off his best performance of the season. Nick Marsh has emerged alongside Charlie Becker. Turbo Richard and Lee Beebe Jr. give Indiana an explosive running back duo. And Indiana's defensive front continues to dominate.

But mistakes that Indiana survived against lesser competition could become game-changing plays against Nebraska, Ohio State and the rest of the Big Ten schedule.

Plus, we dive into the latest PFF grades and snap counts from Indiana's win over Rutgers, including a surprising development at cornerback. Why did Ryland Gandy play only TWO defensive snaps while Jaylen Bell played nearly the entire game?

Finally, we react to another wild weekend across the Big Ten. Penn State continues to struggle, Michigan falls to Minnesota, USC survives Washington and Wisconsin continues to emerge.

Is the Big Ten ultimately coming down to Indiana and Ohio State?
