Hoosier LET DOWN

·

LEXINGTON, Ky. -- Last week, the IU football team forced seven turnovers from a ranked opponent at a stadium that hadn't seen a non-conference visitor win in a decade. Saturday, that same Hoosier defense was unable to capitalize on the opponents' miscues or keep them out of the end zone.

BLOOMFIELD TOWNSHIP, Mich. -- The Ryder Cup won, Sergio Garcia and Lee Westwood raced to their boisterous fans and unfurled the European Union flag, the new symbol of dominance in these matches. They came to Oakland Hills as underdogs. They celebrated as underdogs. By now, everyone should know better. Europe again proved to be the best in the Ryder Cup with its greatest performance Sunday, handing the Americans their worst loss in the 77-year history of the matches.

Golfers look to recover at Central Regional

Team spirit alive in locker room

·

Some athletes can find pregame inspiration in a pair of socks, a ritualistic mix of songs or some other good luck charm. However, for most Hoosier football players, their inspiration comes from a "higher" source - religion. For some Hoosier football players, spirituality plays a large part in their life - both on and off the field. While some express their commitment through personal prayers, the IU team holds a voluntary gameday chapel session for those in need of metaphysical boost.

No. 1 Hoosiers best No. 5 Irish

·

The last time the IU men's soccer team tasted defeat on its home field was Oct. 17, 2001. The Hoosiers' opponent -- Notre Dame. The last time the Hoosiers tasted defeat, home or away, was Sept. 18, 2003. Their opponent -- Notre Dame. Since that loss, the Hoosiers ripped off 22 straight games without being left with that taste of defeat in their mouths. And last night, against those same Fighting Irish, the Hoosiers made it 23.
