BottomLine

Too little and too late sucker.  Maybe you can do better next year.

The last time I was on top I bragged a bit and got knocked on my a**.  Just playing it straight this time.
Revenge game here.  Penn State crushed us on the road by 19.  It rained 3s that day - 19 to be exact.  They haven't matched that total since and won't again.
Penn State has been scrappy as all get out but they must be getting tired.  This is the third game in three days for them.  Let's hope they are a step slow all day.
We need to get out and guard that line.
Indiana    71
Penn State    69

I have an Oldfart doing 45 in the left hand lane and I can't pass him. Just tailgating for now. If I ever get around him I may have a chance to catch up:)

Why don't we all be woke and give a trophy to everyone or not keep score so everyone wins.

It's not exactly what you're thinking it is.
 

I am so ready to go.  Do we really have to wait until Friday to play?  It could get a bit wilder around here between now and then.

Fine by me.  I figure I'm the oldest one on here.  IU class of 69.  That means I'll be 76 this July.  Usually in bed by 2 and up around 10-10:30.  Of course that doesn't take into account the bathroom trips in the middle of the night or getting up at 6 to take care of the dogs and the cat.  They are my pick'em mentors.  I "read" their droppings.
 

Usually don't like to engage with my inferiors.  Just make them feel even worse about their inability to keep up.  But now I'm upset.  Who are you calling a pansy - pansy.  We may need to meet at dawn to settle this gentlemanly dispute.

Depends are a good thing! 
Just realized Class of '66 Old Fart and I were probable on campus at the same time.  Maybe we knew each other.  At our ages it is so easy to forget.

Doing a little math here... after taking the Race route to graduation you started with the inaugural class at IUB in 1820?

I'm a retired history teacher.  Always told my students I knew Abraham Lincoln.  Does that count?  I do know quite a bit about him.
You going to tell me you helped dig the well for the well house?  Did buffalo still roam the campus back then?  No, wait, you were around to pump up the first basketball for the Hoosiers.  I give up.  You are older than me, but we are both still older than dust.

I’m betting on Old Fart. Sleeping in that bathtub gives him a notable bathroom break advantage.

Don't tell anyone, but I sleep in a bathtub.

Thanks for the good thoughts.  Just waiting to see who flinches first.  Just for the record I came within an eyelash of picking Michigan today.  Dodged a bullet for sure.  Wishing the worst right back at ya.

@Joe_hoopsier (1st with 3 wins) and @IUHoosier5 share the win with 131. Joe along with @choosierred1 @Demo @incrediboy got Purdont's score while '5' got IU's score right. 
@rcs29 keeps the lead since the top 9 overall going in all dropped the happiest L they'll ever drop.

Not feeling great about this, however everyone thought they would go psycho little brother on us last year at home and blow us out to get revenge for our earlier win, and we only lost by 2.  I'm probably trying to convince myself as much as anybody but this team knows they can beat Purdue and knows they can compete in Hackey Arena.  
IND - 74
PU - 73

How can you tell I'm retired and I have way to much time on my hands?
