Aiden Fisher’s Status Confirmed

Aiden Fisher, a star linebacker for Indiana, has been cleared to play after not participating against Maryland. He had been dealing with a knee injury but is now off the availability report, signaling his readiness for action.

  • Among his tackles, seven were for loss.
  • He also has an interception to his name.
  • Fisher is a first-team All-Big Ten selection for 2024.

Elijah Sarratt’s Uncertain Status

Elijah Sarratt left the Maryland game with a hamstring injury and is now a game-time decision. As of now, he is marked as questionable on the availability report. Sarratt leads Indiana with 10 touchdown receptions and has contributed significantly with 45 catches this season.

Additional Injuries on the Team

Indiana’s head coach Curt Cignetti has confirmed that offensive guard Drew Evans will miss his second consecutive game due to an undisclosed injury. In his absence, Zen Michalski, an Ohio State transfer who typically plays tackle, filled in at right guard during the Maryland game.
