Indiana football reached a remarkable milestone on Saturday afternoon, but it’s probably not an achievement the program wishes to flaunt.
That’s because the Hoosiers became the first NCAA Division I program to reach 700 all-time losses, with a 38–33 defeat to Maryland.
In fairness, Indiana has been playing since 1887, so there’s been well over a century to rack up losses. The Hoosiers didn’t exactly start out on the right path either, as the first game in program history under A.B. Woodford was a 40–2 loss to Wabash College.
