I sure hope we start fast. I nearly hyperventilated on the first series against Bama when they went three and out and looked terrible. I have my IU flag flying here in Athens, GA.
I think the key to this game will be mistakes. The team that turns the ball over and has too many penalties will be the loser. It is important to start quickly and not wait till the second quarter to get going.
I think IU can build a big lead in the first half and Coach Cig will want to substitute liberally to get the second stringers some game time experience.

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.
