The season starts in just over a week. Let’s take a look at Indiana’s first opponent, Florida International, who are led by former NFL offensive coordinator, Ron Turner.
Indiana will travel to Miami to face Florida International in their first game of the 2016 season on September 1st. This will be the second straight season that the two have played, with Indiana winning the first contest at home, 36-22.
Facing opponents like Florida International help Indiana find their identity when the season starts. With the Big Ten going to a 9-game conference schedule, they only have three weeks before going up against some of the best teams in the country.
