Indiana Football Week 6 Depth Chart, Injury Notes
In this story:
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Following consecutive losses on the road to Cincinnati and Nebraska, Tom Allen and the Hoosiers return home for their toughest matchup to date.
Michigan is a 22-point favorite, according to the SI Sportsbook, and if Indiana has any chance to keep it close, the return of its top two wide receivers D.J. Matthews and Cam Camper is crucial. Following Indiana's 35-21 loss at Nebraska, Allen provided an update on their status.
"Cam's got a non-COVID related illness that he hopefully should be back from here soon, but wasn't able to play. Something that we don't have control over," Allen said. "He'll be okay, but couldn't bring him on the trip."
"D.J. was here, warmed up, tried to see if he could go, not quite 100 percent yet and don't want to do anything that'll set him back," Allen said. "We need him without question for the long haul. Hopefully, we'll get those guys back next week if it all possible."
Zach Carpenter returned to action against Nebraska after missing the previous two games with a right thumb injury. Carpenter said the injury occurred while blocking someone in pregame warmups before the Western Kentucky game in Week 3. He started at center during Indiana's first two games, but he moved to left guard against Nebraska because the injury affects his ability to snap the ball. It was Carpenter's first career start at left guard, but he considers himself an interior lineman that knows all three positions.
Indiana (3-2) hosts No. 4 Michigan (5-0) at Memorial Stadium on Saturday for a Noon ET kickoff.
