I am getting lost on these refs calls. The answer is bourbon. That and put in a complaint about the refs. Still very proud of the Hoosiers on the road in the B1G. Just win this.

Got the mojo back. IU all the way.

Mental error, returning that. No one in the stands except IU fans. Comon IU...put this away...no mistakes.

IU's defense is going to be changed. Playing with Cig's size 10.5s in their backsides.

Cig is going to kick some butt during the halftime break. And he should.

Good friend is a big OSU fan. Has very little sense. Actually, he knows coaching and football. So when he said that Cig was a winner....way back when Cig was picked for IU... I knew things were being upgraded in the Coaching department.

Cig is not only a motivator...he is also one smart cookie. Has UCLA's number.

Great push by the line!!

There was absolutely no personal foul against IU on their QB. WTF. Glad their FG missed. Refs need to stop and get a grip.

A stop anywhere near here would be nice.

He flew across the goal line. Very impressive!! Good call, the screen up the middle. I'm liking this!!

Not bad defense. UCLA helped a little. Must be good sportsmanship.

Rourke seems to have a quick read and release. The receivers are really hanging on to the ball. Get rid of those penalties. Decent mix of runs vs passes. Could be a little better. Rourke really has some serious legs and wiggle getting loose. Stop UCLA penetrating. Now let's take a look at the defense.

Touchdown, IU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They will settle. And they will control the game. Need some yardage on the ground.

Tonight, IU is a football school. Not like UCLA.

Looks like IU fans travel well. UCLA is waiting for surfing season or is weed a factor? Far out! Go IU!

A bruin is a brown bear. I saw one of those earlier today in the porcelain bowl.

Is the injury report out yet for the game? I always get cold feet about this time before the game. So, I put on socks. I'm ok now. Cignetti is going to unleash the big whammy on the Bruises.

Maybe... If Wisconsin wins, Bama loses. Then Wisconsin will lose other games. You're welcome. I now accept Cash App, Venmo, and PayPal...

Per Gameday Information - UCLA vs. Indiana - UCLA (uclabruins.com) Then there is the HT on compressed travel plans for IU football to and from UCLA. And compressed sleeves on the plane... Indiana football's travel plans for UCLA trip explained (heraldtimesonline.com) There is an article online about UCLA thinking that last year JMU defense is this year's IU defense. Okay... Another article said that IU plays a physical kind of football...wow...now THAT is inciteful. I stopped reading when one headline said that Rourke was the head of IU's snake. A win on the road against a new Big Ten conference opponent would be outstanding. A win in the storied Rose Bowl stadium would be the cherry on the top. Make it so.

Shake it, shake it, baby! UCLA's offensive line is suspect. Watch their two tackles. Their ground game was awful. They just squeaked by Hawaii at the end of the game. They had too many mistakes against Hawaii. Will they look sharp this weekend? It is their new coach's first game at home. Don't think that IU has played no one so far this season. Yeah, Western Illinois was weak. But FIU just walloped Central Michigan 52 - 16. If IU's defensive secondary is good and there is pressure on their QB and we keep mistakes low this game will be in the bag.

UCLA is apparently not a very good team. The barely beat Hawaii on the road by one last minute FG. UCLA has a new head coach and staff. Do not have a great understanding of the experience level of UCLA's FB players. UCLA has only had one game...bye last weekend. IU will ruin the Bruins. Welcome to the B1G. Indiana at the Rose Bowl!! 31 (Lebowski can mark another off of his predictions.) UCLA 20

ESPN Power ranking has IU #26. 2024 College Football Power Index - ESPN That is ahead of Purdue, Maryland, Rutgers, Illinois, Nebraska, Iowa...and on and on... CBS has IU #74. College Football Rankings 2024 - CBS Sports Rankings - CBSSports.com Just keep winning.

My wife says that she feels sorry for WIU. While that is true. They asked for it And, it is something unusual for IU. Not a signature win. But more than a blowout.
