The Indiana Hoosiers football program represents Indiana University Bloomington in NCAA Division I Football Bowl Subdivision college football and in the Big Ten Conference.

History

Bowl games

Indiana has featured in only nine bowl games in 120 seasons, so consistently reaching the postseason is considered a primary goal of the program. An oft-spoken mantra, coined after Terry Hoeppner's death in 2007, is to "play 13," meaning to play an extra game (a bowl game) after the 12-game regular season.

Home stadiums

Main articles: Memorial Stadium (Indiana University old) and Memorial Stadium (Indiana)

Indiana's two Memorial Stadiums are entirely distinct venues and share only the same name, though never at the same time. The current Memorial Stadium was called Seventeenth Street Football Stadium until 1971, when it was renamed Memorial Stadium and the original stadium was renamed Tenth Street Stadium. Tenth Street Stadium hosted the Little 500 bicycle race until Bill Armstrong Stadium was built in 1981. It was demolished in the same year and its former place on campus is currently occupied by the arboretum.

Coaches

Indiana athletic director Fred Glass announced the dismissal of the entire coaching staff on November 28, 2010, following a third straight season with only one conference victory. Glass announced the hiring of Oklahoma offensive coordinator Kevin Wilson on December 7. On December 20, Wilson hired New Mexico defensive coordinator Doug Mallory and Nebraska linebackers coach Mike Ekeler as co-defensive coordinators.[2] Mallory, the son of former Indiana head coach Bill Mallory, was Indiana's defensive backs coach from 1994-1996. Boise State assistant head coach Brent Pease was briefly hired as offensive coordinator, but returned to the Broncos to accept the same position after predecessor Bryan Harsin left for Texas.

Rivalries

Main article: Indiana–Purdue rivalry

Indiana's most intense rivalry is with in-state school Purdue University; the two compete for the Old Oaken Bucket, one of the oldest collegiate football trophies in the nation. Purdue has historically dominated both the overall (70–37–6) and trophy (56–27–3) series, though Indiana currently holds the bucket after prevailing 34-31 in the first-ever overtime game in series history. The Hoosiers also have a border rivalry with the University of Illinois, plus a second trophy game (for the Old Brass Spittoon) against Michigan State University. The Spartans will be Indiana's dedicated cross-divisional rival once the 12-team Big Ten splits into two divisions in 2011. Indiana's rivalries with Purdue and Illinois will also stay intact, as all three schools will be in the same division.
