BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – It’s game day, Indiana fans! No. 16 Indiana hosts Nebraska. Hoosiers are undefeated in the Big Ten at 6-0 and 3-0. The Cornhuskers are 5-1 overall and 2-1 in the Big Ten. It's the biggest game in Bloomington in three years and one of the biggest ever.

Read our live blog throughout the day as we cover the game live.

Before the game – Indiana injuries submitted to Big Ten for availability report today, all players listed as out: K Derek McCormick, DB Te'Derius Collins and DT Robby Harrison are all out.

Nebraska lists K Tristan Alvaro and OL Turner Corcoran as opted out.

• I arrived at the stadium around 9am. It was already Bloominggeddon. I live in Bloomington and drove down Rogers Street to the bypass – this isn't my first rodeo – and the bypass was already crowded. I glanced at 17th Street, which branches off at Rogers, and saw that it was already bumper to bumper before the Walnut/College intersection. Good luck if you don't have a parking permit yet.

• Since this is supposed to be a legal department, the secondary market for IU parking permits is kind of scandalous. When I checked a week ago, and this was before Big Noon Kickoff, John Mellencamp, etc., the cheapest ticket on an IU-owned lot was $234. The way I see it now, it's $300. This is not a “free market”. This is a weaponized corporate secondary market taking advantage of a situation. It's happening here, it's happening in many places and it's costing a lot of people to attend games before they've even bought a ticket. Yes, there are other parking options, but some people can't park a billion miles away. I'm ranting and have no solution, but the secondary market for things like parking needs to be brought under control.
