HALFTIME - IU 14, NU 10

NU makes some key defensive stops - Ngene with a sack on second down, John Gill with a batted down pass on third down - to force IU to punt from just into NU territory.

Bacher essentially takes a knee to end the first half, and NU is lucky to go into the locker room down 14-10.

IU will get the ball first to start the second half, and it'll be interesting to see what adjustments both teams make. The Cats have been so inconsistent this year in the fourth quarter - great performances against Nevada, Minnesota and Michigan State, but lousy showings against Michigan, Purdue and Iowa.

But with their season - and the seniors' careers - resting on their second-half performance today, how will NU respond?
