Northwestern trumps Indiana 59-38 in a rout

Indiana and Northwestern combined for 97 points and 1,104 yards of total offense (616-488). How bad was …

Getting his first collegiate start in a hostile environment, Roberson effectively moved the offense throughout the game and looked poised in doing so. Celebrating his 19th …
