IU @ Wisconsin

Jack Tuttle threw two touchdown passes in his first career start and Indiana's defense made a stand in the final minute as the 10th-ranked Hoosiers outlasted No. 18 Wisconsin 14-6 on Saturday.

Indiana's victory snapped a 10-game skid in this series and enabled the Hoosiers (6-1, CFP No. 12) to tie a program record with its sixth Big Ten victory of the season. Indiana also earned six Big Ten wins in 1967 and 1987. The Hoosiers hadn't beaten Wisconsin since 2002.

The Hoosiers" defense showed its mettle late and kept Wisconsin out of the end zone all day. As good as Penix is, he wasn't the only reason for the Hoosiers' dream season.

IU v Maryland

Indiana pulled out a 27-11 victory over Maryland to move to 5-1 on the season.  It's nearly inconceivable to think that the last time Indiana pieced together back-to-back winning seasons was in 1993 and 1994 under Bill Mallory.

The Hoosier pass offense wasn't pretty, but the running game finally emerged from a prolonged slump to lift the Hoosiers. There was a clear emphasis on IU's part to spark its rushing attack against Maryland, despite IU's second-string running back, Sampson James, being inactive.

For a team that entered the game with the second-worst rushing attack in the Big Ten, Indiana's running back group showed out when the Hoosiers needed them most.

With its starting quarterback injured, the passing game ineffective and Sampson James inactive, the trio of Stevie Scott III, Tim Baldwin and Davis Ellis shouldered the load with explosion and tenacity. 

Scott led the way with three rushing scores and 80 yards, while Baldwin, the true freshman, rumbled for 106 yards on 16 carries. Ellis also contributed five carries for 21 yards.
