Indiana had a rough first half against Minnesota on Saturday.

The Hoosiers could only muster one touchdown and trailed 10-7 at halftime. Their lone touchdown came from star wideout Nick Marsh on a throw from quarterback Josh Hoover.

That touchdown pass was all Hoover could muster in the first half, as he finished with 8-of-19 completions for 119 yards, one touchdown, and one interception. He also took a big hit after a late-half throw.

Hoover is now not in the game to start the second half and has been replaced by Grant Wilson.

The Hoosiers had a mostly seamless first five games of the season, but have played some really tough games in recent weeks.

They had to come back in the second half to beat the Nebraska Cornhuskers before losing to the Ohio State Buckeyes on Oct. 17. Marsh came close to scoring the potential game-winning touchdown against the Buckeyes, but his foot was out of bounds.

Last Saturday, they overcame the Michigan Wolverines in overtime, and now they’ll have to come from behind if they want to beat the 5-2 Minnesota Golden Gophers. Let’s see if Wilson has what it takes to lead the Hoosiers to an 8-1 overall record.
