It’s been quite the week around Indiana Athletics and we here at The Crimson Quarry are here to make sure you’re up to date on the goings-on around Bloomington heading into the weekend.

Indiana football lost its first game since 2024 this past weekend, falling 19-15 to Ohio State in Bloomington. Just a few inches separated the Hoosiers from a likely win and a likely No. 1 ranking in this week’s AP Top-25 poll but, alas. The Hoosiers travel to Michigan this weekend to take on the Wolverines in what could prove a tricky matchup.

Meanwhile, Darian DeVries looks to have built a rebounding monster in his second season with the men’s basketball program. The Hoosiers battered both Butler and North Carolina on the glass in exhibition play with another game set for Sunday down in Evansville against Western Kentucky.

Here’s the news you need to know from the week that was:
