Along with Northwestern in the Pinstripe Bowl, the Big Ten is also represented by the Indiana Hoosiers in the Foster Farms Bowl. The Hoosiers enter the game 6-6, while the College Football Playoff Ranking has Utah ranked 19th at 8-4 on the year.
Indiana is just 1-4 against ranked teams, but they played Ohio State tough and only lost by five to Nebraska and 10 to Michigan. The biggest storyline, though, is that Tom Allen took over as Indiana’s head coach after the Hoosiers fired Kevin Wilson for mistreating players.
It was Wilsons’ sixth season as Indiana’s head coach, therefore it will be interesting to see how Indiana reacts to it.
