Indiana vs WKU Game Preview
Why Indiana Will Win
It might have been a loss to Cincinnati, but that started to look and play like the Indiana team we were all waiting for … to a point.
There were some misfires – the Hoosiers didn’t exactly give that game away, but … they gave that game away – but it was a battle. There’s no shame in losing to two of the top ten teams in the country – Iowa was the other loss to start the season.
Against WKU, it’s all about whether or not the D can hold up against the better passers. IU has been more than fine, holding down the Iowa offense and allowing just 210 yards to Desmond Ridder and Cincinnati.

This is a very, very dangerous game for IU. It’s a sandwich between Cincinnati and a road date at Penn State, and WKU will take advantage by bombing away to keep this close.
The Hoosiers will pull it out with a few defensive stops in the second half – and helped by just enough pressure to survive.
