Indiana Rebound from Loss to OSU, Upsets #24 Virginia

Charlottesville, VA - After getting blown out by #12 Ohio State at home, the Hoosiers rebound with a huge upset of #24 Virginia on the road.

The first quarter was awful. Indiana couldn't do anything on offense OR defense. IU opened the game by putting up 3 points. Next drive, they forced a punt. The Hoosiers were on a roll. But then things got ugly. IU punted, Virginia kicked a field goal. IU threw an interception, Virginia scored a touchdown. IU fumbled the kickoff, Virginia scored a touchdown. Now down 17-3, Indiana had no hope.

Then, Ray Fisher went down. He hurt his back and would be out the rest of the game. Ugly just got uglier. But then, a savior came in the form of Damario Belcher. He started beasting it up, catching every thing in site. First a 10 yarder, then a 6 yarder, then a 15 yarder. Each play, IU was getting closer to the end zone. Then, Brad Martin (who?) ran a perfect out route, getting so open you could have underhanded him the ball from 20 yards out. He caught the pass in the end zone to make the score 17-10. And from there, Indiana took off. A field goal the next drive, then a sack/fumble for touchdown by Jammie Kirlew and Greg Middleton made the score 20-17 at the half.

The 2nd half was pretty even. Neither team had the upper hand, and the teams played almost the same. But the biggest play in the 2nd half was IU recovering the onside kick by Virginia with 42 seconds to play. With so little time left, all they did was kneel the ball a couple times and the game was over. "The thrill of that victory was unbelievable," said Mitchell Evans after the game. "None of [the Indiana Hoosier players] could believe what just happened. We had actually beaten a good team."

But the hero today was not Damario Belcher, not Ben Chappell, but Mitch Ewald. "My Man Mitch" kicked 2 key field goals in the first half. Without the 6 points that he scored, Indiana would have lost. "My job is to kick field goals, and that's what I did," he said after the game.

Next week, the Hoosiers host another top 25 team in (Illinois). Let's hope Indiana can keep up its winning streak.

You can take Illinois. Their O-Line is horrid

we can only hope

guys, im spending the night at a friends house, so no updates until tomorrow afternoon

 

[Proof21]

Good luck against Illinois should be a solid game. You have the talent to defeat them and since you face them at home rather than on the road that should help. Good luck.

yea, i have the talent, but i always have like 500000 turnovers, which hurts me sometimes. if i can keep the INTs under control, i have a chance

 

[packersfan4eva]

hey guys, srry about the long wait, but you'll have to wait a little longer. i just got a new ipod touch, so im into that. i'll have an update or 2 (or 3) later this afternoon

Oh and dont overlook Illinois because their offense is out of this world, they lack defense which is why they are not respected much.

...and my defense sucks, so we have a problem. i'll try not to overlook them too much.

Coach Thompson Receives Commitments from Butler and Harvey

Bloomington, IN - Coach Thompson 10 hours a week dedicated to recruiting high school athletes is paying off, as he landed 2 more recruits today to move his total up to 3.

Steven Butler, a 6'2 234 pound Defensive End from Jasper, Indiana, is the best player Indiana targeted this year. A four star recruit, he was ranked #81 on Rivals.com Top 100 High School Football Players. "I knew that Coach Thompson would be the right coach for me," he said after making his verbal commitment. "I want to go to the NFL, and with his NFL experience, I feel I'll have the best shot of making it under his tutoring." This kid could use some SCHOOL tutoring, as his 2.1 GPA worried scouts across the country.

Their other incoming freshman, Malcolm Harvey, is a 3 star Outside Linebacker from Albion, Michigan. At 6'3 and 220 pounds, he is a beast at stopping the run. "Scouts had me labeled as one of the top run-stopping defenders in the country," he told us, "but my awful pass defense knocked me down 2 stars. I could have been a freakin 5 star!"

With 3 recruits under his belt, Thompson hopes to get more recruits this week, as 6 players are visiting to watch IU take on Illinois.

Nice getting a 4 star recruit!

Why are you recruiting Donny Jones who is a 1 star recruit? Does he have a special attribute or something you like?

no, the computer threw him on a while ago. i'm just ignoring the 1 and 2 star recruits, and they're liking iu anyway .
