I've enjoyed the last 2 years of IU football more than I've ever enjoyed any stretch of IU basketball. Dolson fixed an historically bad program and made it a national success story that's breaking the sport. I kind of just accepted awhile ago that basketball is never getting fixed.

If you want to be the best, you can't be afraid of making enemies. IU was terrified of what the media would say about them if they got rid of Woodson, and before that, Archie. That stuff is for losers. For decades now, we've had losers in charge.

This is why we needed to win the Minnesota game. These guys will be seeing ghosts in the second half of every Big Ten road game.

22 days until our next meaningful game. This board should be fun until then. At least football is good.

The Minnesota game got away from us at the same juncture. No progress made since then.

This feels like an IU game from the 2000's.

5 straight turnovers.

4 straight turnovers.

3 straight turnovers.

Fouls were 12-5 in their favor at one point.

We needed a good possession there to try and go up double digits. Instead DeVries launched one and bailed them out.

Man we can't shoot a lick tonight.

I've never really been anti-Vitale, but I've had no idea what he's been talking about half the time tonight.

We'd blow them out at home. Our crowd would go to town on them.

They're way more athletic than us. Going to be hard to do much offensively especially if we're not getting the same calls they're getting.

Their crowd has come alive and we're predictably wilting.

Every time they lose the handle there's a whistle.

Dick Vitale spent the better part of the last 10 years bringing up Kentucky during every one of our games and ranting about how we needed to play them again. He'll probably feel like he died and went to heaven.

Our last 10 years is a case study on how to lose an entire generation of potential IU fans.

It's actually four games: at Rupp, at LOS, at Rupp, at AH. I didn't like it that we agreed to give them two home games, but we have to remember Calipari was still coaching there when they agreed to this and he wanted to avoid AH at all costs. UK and Louisville need to be on our schedule every year, possibly Notre Dame as well. Anything to limit our athletic department's access to the Kenpom sub-300 squads.

They've lost games to Central Michigan and PFW. I thought the same thing last year and we still won both games by 20+.

Iowa was up 8 at the half. ISU on a 14-0 run to start the second half.

A little nitpicky, but I don't like that they matched us in rebounding and got 13 more shot attempts than we did.

Our last win over OSU in football before this year was 1988. Our basketball program's last win at UK was in...1988.

Nebraska has somehow cracked the top 25 and is killing Wisconsin right now.
