BLOOMINGTON, Ind. -- Indiana University's home football game on Saturday is sold out. 

The Hoosiers take on top ranked and defending national champion Ohio State. The capacity crowd of 52,929 marks the first sell out at Memorial Stadium since the Michigan game in 2010, according to a press release from Indiana University Athletics.

"On behalf of our football program and especially our players, I want to thank our student body and Hoosier Nation for their overwhelming response," IU Vice President and Athletic Director Fred Glass said in a statement.

"This sell-out crowd reflects that people are excited about this team and ready to give our players a terrific environment for them to compete against the defending National Champions."

The Hoosiers are 4-0, the team's best start since 1990.
