This is the first time IU is hosting a nationally ranked non-conference opponent since #2 USC played (and beat, 21-0) Lee Corso's Hoosiers in Bloomington in 1981.
IU leads the all-time series with Cincinnati 8-3 (and two ties).
The teams last played in Sep 2000. IU won that contest, in Bloomington, 42-6.
Luke Fickell went 4-8 in 2017, his first season as HC of the Bearcats. He's 33-6 since! This is going to be one tough game for IU, but I'm loving the fact that we're going to have a loud, packed house and a real home-field advantage. Go Hoosiers!
