Indiana football vs. Western Illinois: How to watch, game thread

Week two is here and Indiana football is kicking off... on Friday.

Probably not the ideal timing for a college football game but hey there’s gotta be some tradeoff for the unfathomable amount of money flowing in thanks to television network deals, right? Anyway,

The Hoosiers are set to take on the Western Illinois Leathernecks. This slot was originally reserved for the multiyear series against Louisville that was promptly axed by an Indiana athletics department that I can only assume is going for bowl eligibility and program stability before it ventures into those waters.

Not all directional Illinois schools are the same.
