ESPN Insider Pete Thamel reports update on IU QB Kurtis Rourke

It appears Indiana will get its starting quarterback back for this week’s game against Michigan State.

ESPN college football insider Pete Thamel reported there is continued optimism that Hoosiers quarterback Kurtis Rourke will play on Saturday against the Spartans. Rourke suffered a thumb injury two weeks ago that required surgery to fix.

In seven games this year, Rourke has thrown for nearly 2,000 yards and 15 touchdowns compared to three interceptions. He transferred to Indiana from Ohio this past offseason and is a huge reason the Hoosiers are 8-0.

Kickoff between the Spartans and Hoosiers is scheduled for 3:30 p.m. ET on Saturday. The game will be available to watch via Peacock streaming.
