Following a thrashing of the UCLA Bruins last weekend, the Indiana Hoosiers (3-0) step outside of the Big Ten for a Saturday tilt with the Charlotte 49ers (1-2).

A victory for Curt Cignetti would equal the program’s start in 2020 when their quarterback was Michael Penix Jr. Led in 2024 by Big Ten Player of the Week Kurtis Rourke (7 TDs and 0 INTs on the season), the Hoosiers offense has scored 150 points in its 1st three games.
Coach Cignetti’s defense has been dominant as well yielding just 2 TDs and 23 points in those three games. Charlotte should offer a slightly bigger challenge than any of the Hoosiers’ previous opponents (FIU, Western Illinois, and UCLA) in that they can score points. The 49ers tallied 20 earlier this season in a loss to the Tar Heels of North Carolina. That said, the Spread is 28.5pts. for a reason. Indiana is expected to remain unbeaten and trounce the visiting 49ers.
