Fourth-ranked Indiana survived a scare from Minnesota, winning 23-16 in overtime on October 31, 2026, at Memorial Stadium in Bloomington, Indiana. The Hoosiers, described as "not-so-special" in the aftermath, needed an extra period to put away an "inoffensive" Golden Gophers side.
Minnesota tight end Roman Voss provided a highlight for the visitors, catching a pass and running into the end zone for a touchdown during regulation. The score contributed to a tight contest that ultimately required overtime to decide.
The victory keeps Indiana's record intact but raises questions about the team's dominance against a Minnesota squad that struggled to generate consistent offense. The game was photographed by James Black for Icon Sportswire.
