Indiana Hoosiers Set to Face Howard Bison in Week 2 College Football Matchup

The No. 5 Indiana Hoosiers are scheduled to play against the Howard Bison on Saturday in a Week 2 college football game, broadcasted on Big Ten Network.

Indiana began its title defense with a convincing 52-16 victory over North Texas in the previous week. Quarterback Josh Hoover and receiver Nick Marsh connected for the first touchdown, with Hoover finishing his debut with 231 passing yards and four touchdowns.

Despite the strong performance, Indiana's defense allowed 16 points, which is notable as they had previously limited opponents to fewer than 14 points in their last games. Coach Curt Cignetti will have the opportunity to address these defensive concerns against Howard, who comes into the game with a record of 1-1 after losing to Richmond. Indiana is expected to dominate, having scored over 50 points in multiple games over the last three seasons.
