Another sign the hype is real surrounding IU football
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (WISH) — The Indiana University football team is creating a lot of buzz across the college football landscape.
The Hoosiers are ranked No. 18 in this week’s AP Top 25 Poll thanks to their 6-0 overall record.
IU’s latest win, a 41-24 victory over Northwestern last weekend, helped the Hoosiers clinch bowl eligibility.
Even though the Hoosiers are currently on a bye week, one can still feel the excitement from the IU fanbase. The program announced on Thursday that the team’s next game, on Oct. 19 against Nebraska, is sold out.
It’s the first time that IU has sold out a home game at Memorial Stadium since its game against Ohio State in 2021.
IU head coach Curt Cignetti even marked the sell out by writing a post on X, formally known as Twitter.
Following the game against Nebraska, the Hoosiers have three more home games remaining on their 2024 schedule, against Washington, Michigan and Purdue.
RIPLEY COUNTY, Ind. (WSBT) — A statewide Silver Alert has been issued for two young children in Indiana.
Police in Ripley County, southeast of Indianapolis, are looing for the children who may be siblings.

She was last seen wearing a pink cat shirt and tie-dye shorts.
The younger child is 1-year-old Shane Buckingham, last seen in a red shirt and diaper.
Police think both are with 45-year-old Timothy Buckingham, who was last seen driving a brown GMC truck.
Timothy is described as a 6′ 3″ white man weighing 225 pounds with brown hair and blue eyes.

Police have not confirmed the relationship of the three, or why the children are believed to be in danger.
Anyone who sees the three are asked to contact the nearest police department.
INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — A firefighter for the Indianapolis Fire Department was sent to the hospital Wednesday after battling a fire at a vacant house.
According to a Facebook post made by IFD, the fire happened around 10:15 a.m. at a house on Bluff Rd. IFD says that there were several complications, including limited access to fire hydrants and “interior hoarder conditions” that IFD says was due to squatters.
The injured firefighter received “slight injury,” the Facebook post said.
It took over an hour and a half to get the fire under control, according to IFD, and another hour to put out all the remaining hot spots in the building.
According to IFD, the cause of the fire is currently unknown. Their Fire Investigations Unit is working on figuring out what caused the fire.
