On October 22, 2016, former Indiana University coach and current ESPN College Football analyst Lee Corso described the game on College Gameday. He said at halftime he told the Hoosiers (who were losing the game 26–3) to not bother coming out for the 2nd half unless they were prepared to win the game. Indiana would then go on to win the game 30–26. This was also the debut for Iowa's new head coach Hayden Fry.
