WATCH: Two straight controversial rulings results in Indiana TD vs. Rutgers
Published:
Touchdown or no touchdown? That’s the question.
Indiana freshman running back Stevie Scott appeared to have scored his sixth touchdown of the season in the opening quarter against Rutgers, but it was called short of the goal line. The very next play, sophomore quarterback Peyton Ramsey took an option-keeper and found pay-dirt — at least that’s how it was scored.
Both plays may share a bit of controversy, but we’ll let you be the judge:

For what it’s worth, the touchdown was reviewed and stood as called.
The Hoosiers (3-1, 0-1 Big Ten) currently own a 24-7 lead against struggling Rutgers (1-3, 0-1) heading into the second half.
