Indiana opens game vs. Rutgers perfectly, forces fumble returned for TD on first play
Indiana-Rutgers is one of three Big Ten games opening up the Saturday slate this week and the game is taking place at Indiana.
The Hoosiers kicked the ball off and Rutgers was ready to start its first possession. The Scarlet Knights elected to pass and quarterback Johnny Langan got sacked by Demarcus Elliott, who forced a fumble. Reakwon Jones scooped the ball up and scored to make the game 7-0 with 14:50 remaining in the first quarter:

This, obviously, is not how you want to start a football game (if you’re Rutgers).
