Howard Wouldn’t Do Anything Differently In Loss

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. - The only thing Jordan Howard said he wishes was different was the result—not the play call.

Indiana ran the ball 18 consecutive plays ranging from the beginning minutes of the fourth quarter to the penultimate play of a 48-41 double-overtime loss to Michigan on Saturday. But on fourth-and-goal from the 2-yard line with Indiana needing a touchdown to keep any hopes of a win alive, the Hoosiers called for a pass.

Senior quarterback Nate Sudfeld's pass intended for redshirt junior receiver Mitchell Paige fell incomplete, spoiling an otherwise career-performance for Howard against one of the nation's most prolific rush defenses.
