ESPN RECAP

Rourke helps No. 23 Indiana stay unbeaten with 41-24 victory over Northwestern

EVANSTON, Ill. -- , Kurtis Rourke threw for 380 yards and three touchdowns to help No. 23 Indiana stay unbeaten with a 41-24 victory over Northwestern on Saturday. The Hoosiers (6-0, 3-0 Big Ten) also had 149 yards on the ground with Justice Ellison (68 yards) and Ty Son Lawton (52 yards) each having a rushing TD. Elijah Sarratt had 135 yards on seven catches. The Hoosiers matched their best start to the season with the six wins, equaling the 1967 squad. “It’s great to be 6-0,” Indiana coach Curt Cignetti said. “I’m not going to say we needed a game like that, but we were certainly tested back and forth like we had not been tested this season.” Jack Lausch had a bounce-back performance for Northwestern (2-3, 0-2), throwing for 243 yards and two scores. Bryce Kirtz and A.J. Henning were his favorite targets, combining for 195 yards on 16 catches.
