I wish them the best, but expect a quick exit.

After IU, I lived in the Chicago area and loved the lakefront areas. My next stop was while in the Navy. I lived in Virginia Beach. The entire Norfolk area is military, so I couldn't recommend it. I then moved to Kennesaw, a suburb northwest of Atlanta. I raised my kids there. Eventually, I moved into the downtown Atlanta area for work. I loved Atlanta when I first moved there, but now I avoid it. Traffic is a nightmare. I am happily retired and living in Athens, Georgia. What's strange about it is that Athens is a lot like Bloomington. It has 40,000 students in an urban area of about 200,000. It is hilly with lots of beautiful countryside around it. I highly recommend it.

Over the last 25 years, a series of incompetent ADs have ruined IU basketball.

Indiana's all-time Big 10 tournament record is 39%. Today's result was as expected.

I am apprehensive about Dolson hiring Woodson's replacement. I don't know how much Quinn Buckner influenced the decision to hire Woodson. If he was heavily involved then the Governor needs to remove Buckner when his term on the Board of Trustees is up.

I expect the game to turn out like the Maryland or Northwestern games. Once IU gets a touchdown lead, Coach will go for blood to impress the CFP committee.

I am really tired of Finebaum trashing non-SEC team schedules. I looked at the top six SEC team schedules, and they aren't impressive when playing non-SEC teams. A&M lost to Notre Dame. UGA beat Clemson, but so what? Clemson is really down this year as is the whole ACC. Alabama beat Wisconsin which lost their QB in the first quarter. The top SEC teams are beating each other and that looks impressive to the pollsters, but they aren't getting any signature wins outside of the conference.

IU 28 OSU 27

I hope OSU is looking ahead to their next game against Michigan the following week.

We hear a lot about SEC team's strength of schedule. Check out Tennessee's schedule. I am not impressed. Other than Georgia and Alabama it is weak. And they lost to a bad Arkansas team.

IU 35 UM 14

I don't think Cignetti is thinking about OSU yet, but if they take care of business vs UM, I see Cignetti going for blood in Columbus.

I did a google on thumb nail injuries. The nail bed can heal in 7 to 10 days. It can take several months for the nail to regrow.

Hoosiers 35 NW 14

I avoid looking ahead at the schedule. I am only thinking about Northwestern.
