BLOOMINGTON, Ind. — Indiana Hoosiers starting quarterback Kurtis Rourke will be out indefinitely with an injured right thumb, the team announced Sunday. Rourke was injured during the first half of Saturday’s 56-7 rout over Nebraska when his hand hit the helmet of a Cornhuskers defensive player.

The Nebraska Cornhuskers came off the bye week with a showdown in Bloomington against the Indiana Hoosiers. The Huskers were not up to the challenge and were blown out by the Hoosiers 56-7, the largest loss of the Matt Rhule era.

Nearly everything was bad. Honestly, it was disappointing, writes Amie Just from the Huskers' lopsided loss to the Hoosiers.

No. 16 Indiana is a real threat to make the Big Ten championship game – and perhaps an even greater threat to make the College Football Playoff. Is that too much hyperbole after the Hoosiers beat Nebraska 56-7 in Week 8?
