The Hoosier Network

It is rare to see two transfers gel together as quickly as Indiana midfielders Alex Matthews and Wes Carnevale have. Matthews, a transfer from Missouri State, and Carnevale, a newcomer from Cornell, have formed an instant connection, both on and off the pitch. For head coach Todd Yeagley, the chemistry they have is a key part of building a national championship squad. Indiana’s head man knows what it takes, as he secured the program’s eighth title in 2012.

The Hoosiers got the advantage early on and never surrendered the lead The Indiana women’s soccer traveled to Athens, Ohio this past Sunday, securing a 3-2 win against the Ohio University Bobcats. Indiana’s win against the Bobcats marked its first road win of the season, a needed response after falling to Xavier and St. Louis. The Hoosiers head into the non‑conference stretch at 3‑2‑1. Indiana opened the match with strong energy.

The Hoosiers scored the game winning goal 61 seconds into the match After a draw at No. 22 Louisville on Monday, No. 6 Indiana men’s soccer was back at Bill Armstrong Stadium Friday night. The Hoosiers put their undefeated record on the line, as they faced the Cal Poly Mustangs in the first game of the 2026 adidas/IU Credit Union Classic.

Sometimes, it’s not about who you are, it’s about what’s around you. On Saturday, No. 6 Indiana defeated North Texas by a score of 52-16 in the season opener. Josh Hoover, Indiana’s fifth-year transfer quarterback from TCU, made his debut for the Hoosiers. Hoover stepped into what some suggest is the most difficult job in college football, and without a shadow of a doubt, his first performance as a Hoosier was an impressive one.

Indiana linebacker Isaiah Jones didn’t look or sound like a player whose team won Week 1by 36 points. As he spoke to media members following Indiana’s 52-16 win over North Texas on Saturday, Jones described how the defense felt afterwards, and it was the same feeling I had watching. “We left the field unsatisfied,” Jones said. “We beat ourselves on some plays and we’ve got to get off the field.” The box score would suggest that Indiana dominated the game in all facets.

The wait is finally over! Indiana football kicks off its 2026 season Saturday at noon, hosting North Texas at Memorial Stadium in a matchup that also marks the permanent unveiling of the Hoosiers' first-ever national championship banner. In Curt Cignetti’s third year, the Hoosiers come into the season as the No. 6 team in the country and a 40.5-point favorite over the Mean Green.

It all starts on Saturday. This weekend, No. 6 Indiana hosts North Texas to open its season, embarking on a near-impossible quest to match or exceed the brilliance it displayed a year ago. Indiana’s first test on Merchants Bank Field at Memorial Stadium is against the Mean Green, who are led by a familiar face in quarterback Tayven Jackson.

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. - The Indiana Hoosiers took down the No. 12 ranked Texas A&M Aggies Wednesday night, winning in five sets 26-24, 26-28, 25-23, 17-25 and 15-9.

The Hoosiers battled hard, but for the entirety of the match it seemed as if the Lady Vols always had the momentum.
