 Indiana was coached by Bill Mallory , who would go on to accumulate the winningest record in IU football history . The Indiana Hoosiers football team ended the 1992 college football season with a record of 5 – 6 , and prior to the 1993 season was picked to finish no better than eighth in the 11 @-@ team Big Ten conference during the regular season . From the start , however , Indiana set out to upset those expectations . Indiana raced out to a 3 – 0 record in the first three games of the season , with the third win coming against Southeastern Conference opponent Kentucky .
