Indiana football turns toward Howard week, and this Bison Briefing covers the Hoosiers' biggest watch points after the North Texas opener, plus a wide-angle look at college football's biggest Week 2 games.Galen Clavio opens with a reminder to check out the new CrimsonCast interview with Ben Portnoy, then moves through a packed Q&A covering IU football, the Big Ten, the College Football Playoff, and the broader Indiana athletics scene. The show also includes a quick look back at early CrimsonCast history, including the 2012 Indiana-UMass recap era and the old BlogTalkRadio days.The football discussion starts with Indiana's growing NFL footprint. Galen reacts to IU's graphic of former Hoosiers on NFL rosters, including recent championship-era players like Riley Nowakowski, Elijah Sarratt, Aiden Fisher, D'Angelo Ponds, and Omar Cooper Jr., plus earlier standouts like Miles Price, Curtis Rourke, and CJ West.From there, it's on to the unofficial Big Ten/SEC weekend challenge: Oklahoma-Michigan, Mississippi State-Minnesota, and Ohio State-Texas. Galen gives his read on Michigan's bounce-back chances, why Minnesota may be well-positioned against Mississippi State, and why Ohio State's trip to Austin could tell us a lot about Julian Sayin, Arch Manning, and the early College Football Playoff race.The IU-specific portion focuses on what to watch against Howard. Galen wants cleaner defensive execution, sharper tackling, fewer assignment issues, and more clarity in the defensive line rotations after the North Texas game. He also looks at whether Sean Cuono or another third running back gets meaningful reps with Khobie Martin injured and Turbo Richard and Lee Beebe Jr. leading the rotation.The show closes with a reaction to an excerpt from Zach Osterman and Mike Niziolek's upcoming book, Unthinkable to Unstoppable, including Curt Cignetti's “pray for Oregon” line, Indiana's defensive game plan against Dante Moore, and what that Oregon win revealed about IU's rise into a national power. Galen also gives shoutouts to Indiana men's soccer, now surging near the top of the national rankings, and IU volleyball, which finally comes home to Wilkinson Hall.Subscribe to the Back Home Network for more CrimsonCast, Bison Briefing, Indiana football, IU athletics, Big Ten football, and college football coverage all season long.
