Indiana fans dominate Rutgers' homecoming in 47-15 blowout

sports.yahoo.com —

Indiana Hoosiers fans dominated Rutgers' homecoming game on Saturday, with many outnumbering home supporters at SHI Stadium during a 47-15 victory. The takeover marked a striking shift for a program long considered a Big Ten doormat. Indiana's resurgence stems from heavy roster investment and head coach Curt Cignetti's hiring, a blueprint Rutgers is attempting to follow under athletic director Keli Zinn. The Scarlet Knights have struggled with alumni relations, including a past snub of NBA commissioner David Stern. The Hoosiers' success offers hope for Rutgers' long-suffering fanbase, though replicating Indiana's formula may prove difficult without a billionaire backer like Mark Cuban. The loss highlighted ongoing challenges for the Scarlet Knights' program.
