Magnanimous

FSU instability following Jimbo’s tenure landed us Penix and a few others. Allen needs to scoop up who he can while this mess lingers in Tallahassee.

Agreed. The zip on Penix’s throw makes the defense have to play that much quicker and allows the receivers to catch the ball in stride and make get more YAC. It also stretches the field more for our running game and underneath routes. His grasp on the offense is very promising for a RS Freshman.

Penix may want to go out for baseball if he keeps getting hurt like this...

We’re officially a good team if we’re getting these calls.

He jumped forward but was far back enough that he didn’t cross the neutral zone. And flinching = false start.

It’s still Halloween in Btown.... student section looks good. The end section is empty, not student tickets.

Our rush d is leaving a lot to be desired

Can we please not put Penix in a position to take hits with these designed QB runs?

I think the momentum coming off last game coupled with the fact they’re off next week will help keep them focused on the task at hand.

Northwestern is averaging 10.7 points per game and their QBs have a combined 2 TD passes to 11 INTs. 38-14 Hoosiers.

Now that Allen has established himself as the coach and we are officially in the “Michael Penix” era, this next phase needs to revolve around distancing ourselves from the Big Ten East bottomdwellers and supplanting MSU as the fourth best team in the East. That will entail having the Rutgers and Maryland games considered as automatic wins, bowl games becoming a regular thing, occasionally beating Michigan and Penn State, and being an 8-9 win team on a near regular basis. I know this sounds like wishful thinking, but the team is there and this is the step the program needs to make over the next 3-5 years.

Hats off this team and Peyton Ramsey and Tom Allen in particular! Indiana just won...at Nebraska. I know they’re a shell of their former self but this is like Vanderbilt winning at Alabama pre-Saban. Still a huge deal. IU is now 10-8-3 all time against Nebraska. Interesting historical record given we’ve played them over 20 times now.

I hate these sideline hit calls when contact begins while the offensive player is still in bounds.

This team is Even Steven

That side of the field keeps pushing kicks to the left.

#22 made a great tackle but you gotta turn around and keep blocking! Should’ve been 6.

Defense is absolutely abysmal. More athletic than in the past, but terrible.

As bad as Nebraska is, I don’t see us pulling this out at there place without a healthy Penix. Some of the scores you all are throwing out there are crazy, btw. A Ramsey led offense putting up 35+? Nebraska - 34 Indiana - 20

At the game. Penix not out for the second half.

It’s not as big of an issue this game because MD’s defense is porous and there is no rush but he can’t lead receivers past 15 yards and had no zip on his passes. His arm looked much better against UVA a few years ago than it does now.

It shouldn’t take a new coach for our players to learn their necks are capable of turning.

I’m very happy we have him, but he’d have to make significant and unforeseen leaps in development beyond his current trajectory to be considering leaving early.

When was the last time we were favored by this much in a big ten game?

Tom Allen’s awesome.

Tom Allen seems like a fun guy.
