Indiana is living right.

Michael Penix Jr. and the Hoosiers are up 24-0 at the half half against Michigan State thanks to this touchdown pass:

That’s Ty Fryfogle on the receiving end, who finished the half with nine catches for 178 yards and two touchdowns. Each of those three numbers represents a new career high for Fryfogle, breaking his previous record that he set last week vs. Michigan: seven catches for 142 yards and a touchdown.

Penix completed 20-of-28 passes for 284 yards and two touchdowns in the first half.

It hasn’t been perfect for Indiana — Penix has thrown two interceptions, but the Hoosiers are still dominating a 1-2 Michigan State team.

If Indiana can finish it off, it will have wins over three of the four biggest programs in the Big Ten East: Penn State, Michigan and now the Spartans.

Next week, Indiana will travel to Columbus to face Ohio State for what could be the Big Ten East crown.
