    IU Men's Soccer News and Notes

    Very impressive, against a very good Akron Zips team.

    That bad call on movement on the OL in the 2nd quarter was a momentum killer. Then Rourke got sacked and changed everything in the 1st half. But IU could not protect Rourke. And our defensive backs out wide started to give up space to OSU's wide receivers. If IU cannot get to the opposing QB, then the pass defense needs something else. Talent? Speed? Something. The play calling was up and down too. For instance, 2nd and 8 and we don't get a first down because we beat ourselves. This team is special. The beat down was somewhat due to OSU hanging on to our players and not getting called. That stuff happens on the road. Doesn't mean that they curb-stomped IU. And it does not mean that IU should get hammered for playing against $$$$ and the media and a really talented team on the road in the B1G.

    Well, it's almost 5 o'clock somewhere. I am not surprised at losing to OSU. Painful how it happened. But this will not dampen the feeling that we have taken a huge jump up in football. Great year.

    Proof that IU is a late in the 4th quarter team. And anyone can score against Ohio St.

    The yips. Bad calls. OSU's QB having a game.

    Not sure about that. But, may have to change my mind.

    Obviously we need a few referees to call the game correctly.

    2nd and 2. And can't get 2 yards. We are beating ourselves.

    One intentional grounding. Too many calls given to OSU.

    Did you see Indiana's OL push OSU's DL back? Again and again...

    Over here in Dayton, of all of the crowd here, the majority of us are cheering for Indiana.

    The Rose Bowl was certainly a biggie....with O J Simpson, their RB. Loved our team's player's names: Gonso; Butcher; Isenbarger; coached by (Punt, John, punt) John Pont. I was in a speech class with Jade Butcher. Learned a lot about artificial turf...lol.

    Remembering when the B1G stole a B1G championship game opportunity from IU. And what about Nick Saban stealing a bowl game from us?

    Based on GameDay...seems OSU just has to mail it in today. IU is going cancel their stamps and Frank them up. Envelope, please.

    Game Day!! Gear up! Latest word: Buckeyes are scared. Their DB Burke does not handle a back-shoulder fade route by a wide receiver. Then he tries to steal the ball and doesn't tackle. Smells like multiple long and successful plays. Their OL has been changed 3 times with mixed performances. They have lost 2 alleged all American linemen. But they seem to have jelled, and they are good...maybe not good enough. IU defense is very disruptive against opponents' QBs. OSU's QB Howard has not been tucking in the ball and running. Will he? Can he? Make him pay. IU will intercept his passes. OSU starts slow. OSU is underestimating IU. They feel entitled. IU is very well coached, is disciplined and is coming off of a bye week. Very dangerous for November. IU doesn't just win. IU beats the opponent by multiple scores and doesn't quit. And, in previous wins, has pulled the starters in the 2nd half. IU destroyed Nebraska and the useless nuts only won by 4 at home. Says a lot about their ex-HS 5* talent. Oh, by the way, the last two times OSU played Michigan...they LOST. And they ARE already longing to play Michigan. Hang on to the ball, stop their run, be disruptive to their QB, protect Rourke, and go to work. It is not who wants it more. It is all about execution and game plan. Beat them in the trenches. This is a play-in game for the B1G Championship and seeding for the Nationals.

    I understand why one would think that getting stuck in a cave might be scary. Believe it or not...when we did that crawl from the two-level part of the cave and through the really tight and small tube, we had deflated innertubes slung on our shoulders and that got me stuck. We planned to get to the underground river and inflate them and float to the sink that went up...Coglazers (now the entrance to the tourist boat float in the cave). It was anticipated that we might get hung up. Had my helmet off and pushed it in front of my skimmy. Couldn't lower my arms. Just pushed with wrists, feet back the way I came. Took off the tube. Redid it. The worst was the subway closing. I'm communicating through the door to stay there.My better half kicked the door. It opened. Grabbed the youngin. Holy creapola. PS. The doctor and I are really good buddies. Wink, wink, nudge, nudge. Not.

    I haven't been this nervous since: A) I popped the question; B) the doctor put those gloves on and smiled at me; C) we approached test depth after overhaul in the submarine; D) I got stuck crawling through a tight spot in Blue Springs Cave; E) My fifteen-year old daughter was outside the subway doors when they closed in Paris. Actually, I'm not nervous at all. My nerves are shot.
