Bloomington’s biggest high school football rivalry—North vs South—will go head-to-head with IU vs Indiana State, both kicking off just miles apart on the same Friday night. For local families, this means choosing between supporting their hometown teams or catching the college action. High school football, which relies on Friday night crowds to fund other sports, is feeling the squeeze as college games muscle in for TV money. It’s not just about sports; it’s about community, tradition, and what we’re willing to trade for bigger paydays. How do you feel about the Big Ten’s Friday night takeover? #Sports #Football #Bloomington
