BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – The Indiana football team hits the road for the final time in 2018 when it faces the No. 4 Michigan Wolverines on Saturday afternoon. Kickoff is set for 4 p.m. ET on FS1.
Each week we will compile five quotes and storylines recapping the previous game and previewing the upcoming one.
Tom Allen
"Really proud of our football team and the way that they finished on Saturday and bounced back from a tough stretch. They stayed together and kept their focus on the process of trying to improve each week and take advantage of a bye week to get ourselves healthy."
OC Mike DeBord
"You go back early in the season, (Peyton Ramsey) was completing over 70 percent there for a long period of time and was playing great. I think when you saw him make that run, that was a result of what we did in the bye week. We rested him. He didn't take any snaps, he threw the ball a little bit in individual but didn't take any snaps. We didn't have him run all that, but you saw how much he's healthy now. That kid gives you everything you have. I love him and he just he battles all the time. Now he's got his legs under him a little bit better and he played a great football game."
RB Coach Mike Hart
"(Going into Michigan Stadium) I think our guys have that experience, this year and going into last year. You're going into Penn State, you play at Penn State, you play at Ohio State, you played at the Shoe. It's just similar to those situations. I think once you get locked into a game you have tunnel vision. I think when you're on it at first you'll see everybody but after that you have tunnel vision and that's the same thing I preach all the time, same thing Coach Allen preaches. We all play one play at a time and you really do just block out everything that's around it because when you do let it distract you, that's when it becomes an issue."
QB Peyton Ramsey
"The wide receivers helped me out a ton. Big, athletic, tall guys. As long as you give those guys a chance, put the ball in an area where they can go up and catch it against maybe smaller corners, whenever you have those guys and those opportunities outside, we like to take advantage of them and that's what we did on Saturday."
S Jonathan Crawford
"Coming in, we knew that Maryland was good in the red zone, so that was something we focused on there during the week and overall we just wanted to better contain the big plays. They still gave us something, but in the end we held our own."
