Oh my goodness! Why do we have to wait until noon? You know I'm right. Psychotic, but absolutely right. We gotta take these bastards. Now, we could fight 'em with conventional weapons. That could take years and cost millions of lives. No, in this case, I think we have to go all out. I think this situation absolutely requires a really excellent and different gesture be done on somebody's part. Fill the stands for the whole game! We're just the cray cray fans to do it...LET'S DO IT! -

I went to the Army vs Nebraska game in 1972. It was back when Nebraska was a powerhouse. Game setting was intense. All of the cadets in grey. On the grounds of historic West Point. Was in the Navy and a good shipmate buddy was from Elgin Nebraska and lived Cornhuskers. What a setting. Stadium was full. Cannons booming. Cadets cheering. Some minority Nebraska fans... Kickoff... Game was over immediately. 77 - 7 Nebraska. Well, the worm has turned. IU will win by a gazillion. It is written. -

Things you're most curious to see this basketball season

Since my wife of 47 years and I will be in St. Croix USVI in early to past mid-March, I want to see beaches and Indiana in the NCAA Tournament on March 18. Will be really fun juggling beach and snorkeling time with the games. Great problem to have. I'm up for it. Buck Island Reef National Monument (U.S. National Park Service) (nps.gov) -
On second thought after clicking on the picture and taking a closer look, I have some thoughts. The clarity is very good, so I revise my speculation from possible charcoal drawing. It does seem to be a black and white photograph. What looked like color at first is likely a reflection on the protective glass in front of the framed picture. Closer look to the right shows the road from Kirkwood passing in front of the line of building disappearing to a 'vanishing point' way off to the back right. However, at a right angle from the east-west orientation of the road and buildings from the left to the center..off to the right and heading south are a line of buildings, likely Wiley Hall, Kirkwood Hall and Lindley Hall. Look between Franklin Hall and the Student Building and in the background is what might be the Sigma Chi House which was built in 1906. I do not see the Union Building behind the rest of the buildings that are east-west. I do not see the Chemistry building to the right behind those buildings. And that is conclusive that this was before the Chemistry building was built in 1931. I second Old Fart's suggestion. That is if he doesn't remember that far back. Or remember taking the picture.

Looks to me like a good charcoal and maybe pastel drawing of Franklin Hall and the Student Building, Maxwell Hall and Owen Hall...at least that area and to the east. From the perspective of between what is now Bryan Hall and the Rose Well House. Or from the Kirkwood Observatory area. Since the Union was constructed in the early 1930's the drawing is before that. Probably, very early 1900's. Would have to have the art dated by an IU history buff. Is it an original?

2024 IUFB Prediction League - Game 7 vs Nebraska 10/19/24 Noon FOX
Dave from Dayton replied to LIHoosier's topic in Indiana Hoosiers Football
Nebraska 21 Indiana (7 - 0) 28 -
Kevin Wilson will visit to crack some heads and to point out who to blame. No? Never mind. Their on-the-hot-seat-head coach will be Invoking the hallowed name of Woody and will give QB Will Howard a cheap Timex to commemorate the last play of the game and the loss. Defensive Coach Jim Knowles will simplify the defense. Instead of a 4-2-5, they will go to 11- 3...buying referees...against Penn State. Who needs talent when you have the B1G and the referees in your pocket? Just like they did in the old days. They are happy that they are idle all week. Idle, just like they were on the big plays yesterday. If they fix their play calling in the first half...and wake up...and not be hesitant on defense and.. Well, actually, if Oregon at OSU's 2 had run the ball twice... No, they are top heavy. Free fallin'...sleep walkin'...

Another National Championship basketball banner hanging in SSAH. Coaches taking advantage of matchups. Great recruiting. Much improved assists, shooting percentages, defensive efficiency, breakout seasons for lots of team members, and winning the B1G and POTFB...too. -

IU needs to control the game with passing crisply. Plus, it would be nice to have serious breakout strikers. -

Quit spotting NWern good field position. The game would soon turn in IU's favor. And contain their QB. -

Question about IU Defending the NW passes. What is the defense doing? Seems like the secondary is doing their job to force NW to hang on to the ball. Then their QB ducks under outstretched arms, does a little dance, and gets down the field. Sux.
