Indiana coach Curt Cignetti confirms Khobie Martin suffered broken forearm

Indiana head coach Curt Cignetti provided details regarding running back Khobie Martin's injury sustained during the season opener against North Texas. Martin broke multiple bones in his forearm after falling while attempting to pick up a blitzing linebacker on the second play of the game. Cignetti previously indicated the running back will remain sidelined until midseason. The Hoosiers managed a 52-16 victory despite losing three starters during the first quarter of the contest. Beyond Martin's injury, the team also played without starting cornerbacks Jamari Sharpe and A.J. Harris. Indiana recorded 134 rushing yards in the game, though Cignetti noted the group struggled to generate explosive runs against the North Texas defensive front.
