BLOOMINGTON, Ind. - The Nov. 11 Indiana-Michigan contest will be televised on ESPN with a 3:30 p.m. EST kickoff at Memorial Stadium. The game can also be heard on the statewide IU Radio Network (Don Fischer, Pete Compise and Joe Smith).
Game times are predicated on the Big Ten Conference television agreement with ABC, ESPN, ESPN2 and ESPN Plus and are often not announced until 12 days before kickoff.
Last weekend, redshirt freshman quarterback Kellen Lewis threw for five touchdowns and ran for a sixth as Indiana (5-4, 3-2 Big Ten) upended Michigan State, 46-21, on Saturday, Oct. 28, at Memorial Stadium. In front of a raucous Homecoming crowd, sophomore wide receiver James Hardy became the first Hoosier in school history to grab four touchdown passes to help IU recapture the Old Brass Spittoon for the first time since 2001.
The Hoosier offense scored its most points ever against Michigan State and the most in any contest since a 56-21 victory over Northwestern on Nov. 3, 2001. Lewis became just the fourth IU player to account for six touchdowns in a single game, joining Levron Williams (Oct. 6, 2001), Antwaan Randle El (Sept. 12, 1998) and Bob Hoernschemeyer (1943). His five touchdown passes tied Jay Rodgers and Tim Clifford for the second-most in a single game in school history.
This weekend, the Hoosiers look for their sixth win of the season at Minnesota. Kickoff is set for 11 a.m. CST/noon EST at the Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome. The game can be seen on ESPN360.
