PrintI'm still struggling to get over the fact that a run-first, run-second team like Wisconsin scored 83 points in a game against Indiana. As a fan of a team that once gave up 73 points against a team actively trying not to score, I know how bad can go to worse, but ... 83! Sixth-most points allowed by a same-division opponent in the last 50 years!
Most Points Scored Versus Same-Subdivision (i.e. FBS vs FBS) Opponent (1960-2010)

3. 1991: Fresno State 94, New Mexico 17

5. 1983: Nebraska 84, Minnesota 13
6. 2010: Wisconsin 83, Indiana 20

Central Michigan wasn’t then and still isn’t in the SEC.

Not listing teams in the same conference.
Same division … though actually, it should say sub-division, shouldn’t it…basically I was eliminating the games versus FCS teams.
I guess you can blame it on me
The last two football games I’ve attended in person were this particular Wisconsin-Indiana game and that Clemson-Missouri game back in 2001.
Combined score: Home Team 145 – Away Team 29.
