Indiana and Georgia are basically the same at this point, with wins over three teams both should clearly beat.

Pyromania1983 6 Indiana has done literally everything right in non-conference play this year. Their defense has looked phenomenal, pitching two straight shutouts lowering their scoring average 5.3 points allowed per game. Week 3 featured the best of everything on offense too: a really good game from QB Josh Hoover, a great running game by RB Turbo Richard (great name!), and really awesome receiving from Charlie Becker and Nick Marsh.

Doogitywoogity 7 WKU doesn’t say much, but it is a reference vs Georgia. This Indiana squad looks to have a solid defense as much as I can tell given the quality of opponents they’ve faced so far. Offense seems to be a bit weaker than I’d like to see from a top 10 team. Lucky for them, they have a pretty easy schedule by P2 standards.

noah_divine 5 They did not score as many points as I would have hoped, but Indiana has still taken care of business against a weak non-conference schedule. I believe this team can reach the same heights they did last year, but we will not know how good this team really is until they face Ohio State on October 17th.

_THE__BOULDER_ 6 Another clean sheet. This marks the end of Indiana's tune ups and they play a powerhouse in Northwestern this weekend. On a more serious note, Northwestern has been somewhat impressive on offense in their last 2 games. I doubt they'll pose too much trouble, but I would enjoy watching that.
