BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (AP) — Lee Beebe Jr. rushed for 203 yards, including a 70-yard burst that set up Josh Hoover’s game-sealing 1-yard TD run with 1:56 to play, and No. 5 Indiana held off surprising Northwestern 29-23. The defending national champion Hoosiers extended the Football Bowl Subdivision’s longest active winning streak to 20 games and the longest home winning streak to 19 — but it was a struggle until the final seconds. Northwestern was within 15-13 early in the fourth quarter but failed on a 2-point conversion. The Wildcats made a late field goal but couldn't recover the onside kick.
