Overview
- Indiana beat Western Kentucky 38-0 on Saturday at Memorial Stadium to move to 3-0 and extend the program’s active win streak to 19 games.
- Quarterback Josh Hoover completed 18 of 24 passes for 273 yards, threw two touchdown passes and did not turn the ball over in a performance that steadied the Hoosiers after a slow first half.
- Wide receiver Charlie Becker had a big game and is drawing early NFL scout attention that could raise his draft profile if he sustains this level of production.
- Two starting defensive linemen, Stephen Daley and Kellan Wyatt, did not play because a temporary restraining order that had cleared them to play expired and both are awaiting a new Monroe County Circuit Court ruling.
- The game was marred by a serious in-game injury to WKU lineman Karsten Upchurch who was taken off on a backboard and by conflicting reports about which service carried the broadcast, with outlets naming Peacock, NBCSN, and Fubo.
