How to Watch Indiana Football Week 3 Against Louisville

Indiana football continues the 2023 season against Louisville on Saturday at Noon ET at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis. Here's how to watch, with game time and TV information, the latest on the point spread, series history, coaching information and more.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. – Indiana and Louisville will make a short trip up north to Lucas Oil Stadium, home of the Indianapolis Colts, for Saturday's Noon ET kickoff.

The Hoosiers are coming off a dominant 41-7 win over Indiana State, and the Cardinals manhandled Murray State in a 56-0 victory. 

Louisville coach Jeff Brohm is at a new school, but he's facing a familiar opponent in coach Tom Allen and the Hoosiers. Brohm went 4-1 against Indiana as Purdue's coach, and tallying another win would create serious momentum for the currently undefeated Cardinals.

For the underdog Hoosiers, bowl eligibility chances would get a major boost with a win on Saturday. Allen named redshirt freshman Tayven Jackson the starting quarterback, following an 18-for-21 passing performance last week.

"It was a dream come true," Jackson said. "It's everything you want to hear from a coach. Coming here, it's been a struggle. It's been hard going through a quarterback battle, but that's life. So it was a relief."
