BLOOMINGTON, Ind. The Nov. 4 Indiana at Minnesota football game time has been set for 12:00 p.m. EST at the Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome (64,172) in Minneapolis.

The Hoosiers are enjoying a productive off-season, gearing up for the start of preseason camp on Aug. 6. Quarterback Blake Powers directs a prolific offense that set a school record with 24 touchdown passes last season and returns six players who each caught at least 10 passes. One of those returnees, sophomore Marcus Thigpen, moves from wide receiver to running back to utilize his 4.29 speed in the 40-yard dash. Thigpen will compete with a trio of talented redshirt freshmen - Demetrius McCray, Bryan Payton and Justin Carrington - for playing time in the backfield.

For just the fourth time in the 46-year history of Memorial Stadium, Indiana will play seven home games in 2006. For ticket information, please call 1-866-IUSPORTS.
