In a nail-biting game against Northwestern, Indiana's Lee Beebe Jr. delivered a career-high rushing performance that proved pivotal in securing a 29-23 victory for the Hoosiers. The fifth-year back showcased his prowess, rushing for a career-high 203 yards, including a remarkable 70-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter.
