Preview & Prediction: No. 4 Indiana vs. Western Kentucky
- Western Kentucky coach Tyson Helton said Rodney Tisdale Jr. and Brock Glenn will probably both play against Indiana. Tisdale has completed 55.6% with no passing touchdowns, while Glenn is at 52.2% and has contributed 70 rushing yards and two rushing scores. This is an expected two-quarterback approach, not a fixed snap split. - Western Kentucky has allowed 119 points and roughly 278.5 rushing yards per game in losses to Nevada and Georgia. The preview identifies run defense as the major Indiana matchup concern; those are two-game results against different opponents, not a guaranteed Indiana rushing total.

Opponent Intel: Key quotes from WKU head coach Tyson Helton ahead of clash at Indiana
- WKU coach Tyson Helton said Rodney Tisdale Jr. and Brock Glenn had minor knocks but expected both to be fully ready for Indiana. Both played in the first two games; he suggested continuity was likely but had not settled the week's best fit or formally named the starter at this media session. - Helton said WKU's four turnovers against Georgia repeatedly compromised its defense, including a kickoff fumble and two interceptions, one returned for a touchdown. He praised defensive effort, backfield disruption and multiple takeaways but acknowledged athletic and schematic mismatches; effort alone has not solved the unit's problems. - Helton called freshman Jonathan Stafford an early bright spot but demanded better work from WKU's receiving group overall: contested and routine catches, release speed and blocking. He has several usable receivers and expects to move the pieces around; the interview did not establish a new starting group.
