Return to Recap
• For the second straight game, the Hoosiers posted a pair of 100-yard rushers. Stephen Houston (120) and D'Angelo Roberts (113) broke the century mark in last year's Old Oaken Bucket victory over Purdue on Nov. 30.
• With 455 rush yards, this is the third time in school history that IU has had back-to-back 400 yard rushing games (401 - Purdue, Nov. 30, 2013). The 455 rush yards are a new Indiana Memorial Stadium record.
• This marks the second time in the Kevin Wilson Era (2011-present) that the Hoosiers have amassed 400-plus rushing yards as a team.
• With 566 yards of total offense, it marks the ninth time that a Wilson led team has totaled 550-plus yards.
• IU's defense surrendered just 170 total yards to ISU, the fewest amount allowed since Sept. 6, 2008, when Murray State gained only 149 yards.
• The Indiana defense gave up just 30 rush yards, its lowest opponent rushing total since allowing 22 yards vs. Western Michigan on Sept. 12, 2009.
• True freshmen Chris Covington, J-Shun Harris II, Dominique Booth, Donovan Clark, Tegray Scales, Simmie Cobbs, Tony Fields, Kiante Walton, Devine Redding, Greg Gooch and Jordan Fuchs each made their debuts.
• Cornerback Kenny Mullen, running back D'Angelo Roberts, wide receiver Isaiah Roundtree and wide receiver Nick Stoner served as today's game captains. It marked the first career honor for each senior.
• Indiana won the opening coin toss and deferred until to the second half.
• The Hoosiers wore the "Block I" helmet in honor of College Football Hall of Famer Anthony Thompson, who was honored prior to the ballgame.
• Redshirt freshman nose tackle Nate Hoff made his first career start on defense.
• Redshirt junior tight end Michael Cooper and true freshman wide receiver J-Shun Harris II earned their first career starts on offense.
• Indiana is now 38-17 all-time in Memorial Stadium openers, including winning 12 of its last 13 and 29 of its last 33. Kevin Wilson improved to 3-1 in openers.
• The Hoosiers moved to 6-0 all-time against Indiana State.
• Junior Tevin Coleman finished with a career-high and an Indiana Memorial Stadium record 247 yards on 23 attempts (10.7 average) with two touchdowns. The junior owns five career 100-yard games and became the eighth Hoosier to record multi-200-yard games in a career. His 247 rush yards rank him fifth all-time on the IU single-game list.
• Coleman has four career multi-TD games and 15 in his career, as he scored from 13 and 73 yards. The 73-yarder is his second career 70-plus yard TD run and the second-longest of his career (75). Coleman shared the top spot nationally with eight 40-plus yard runs one season ago.
• The Tinley Park, Ill., native is the first IU running back since Levron Williams (1998-2001) to reach 200 yards on multiple occasions. Williams did so three times. Alex Smith (1994-96) holds the school record with four.
• Dating back to last season, Coleman now has 10 consecutive games with at least one touchdown. Coleman trails Anthony Thompson's school mark of 12 (1988-89).
• Senior D'Angelo Roberts also reached the 100-yard mark, posting a career-high 129 yards on 24 carries (5.4 average). Roberts recorded his second consecutive 100-yard game and the third of his career.
• Senior defensive end Bobby Richardson recorded the Hoosiers first sack of the season in the second quarter and added two more in the fourth. His three sacks tied for the fifth-most in a single game in program history. Richardson now has 8.5 sacks in his career.
• Junior Bandit Nick Mangieri followed with sack No. 2 on the next play and has four in his career.
• Senior linebacker David Cooper led the Hoosiers with eight stops, including one tackle for loss.
