BottomLine

Damn garbage time really affected the results for the Maryland game and the overall standings. @rcs29 takes the overall lead and ties @cthomas for the win with 129 pts. They got IU's score right along with @BottomLine @Demo @Napleshoosier @Rico @thebigweave @WayneFleekHoosier and @RoadRage.

Well it seems that Sparks has extreme prejudice against that Rim ! !  I like it.

So does everybody younger than me have to respect me?  @Hovadipo go get me a beer

Don't start picking on the old guys.  I was at IU the same time as Old Fart (class of 69) and you need to do a bit of climbing to catch me,

Age has its privileges. 

What did we learn in our first game?  Not much.  Our defence has improved a bit and our offense sucks.  Last week we played a pro team and this week we play a high school team.  How does one translate to the other?
Hope the problem with the offense was OSU and not that it is non existant.
IU.    38
ISU.    10

ISU kinda sucks. We only suck in comparison with a top 5 team.

Golly gee whiz @Josh I had to scroll down so far to find your score I didn't realize you had even made a prediction!   

2 tds and a couple of fgs is probably the most we can hope for.  As usual osu is looking for a national title.
IU 20
OSU 48

Too good not to share.  Oscar Robertson grabbing a rebound during 1959 NCAA Regional Semifinal at Manhattan, KS, between Cincinnati and Kansas State.

Cute picture.  That you?
 

BTW  When in September is the first game?

$22 mill from NBC vs $80 mill from B10.  Plus ND was  granted AAU membership this year, usually a filter for B10 membership.  ND won't get a better offer anywhere else.  Can they work well with others?

Notre Dame is getting 22 million a year for football from NBC.  Deal runs out in a couple of years.  The ACC is the next conference that is set to implode and probably isn't the most stable place for ND to hang out.  They don't bring a new market for B10 tv but they are a national brand.  Would you take a deal with a shaky ACC or a 80-90 mil deal with the B10.  It is all about money sometimes.  ND would then also get a chance to reconnect with old rivals MIchigan, MSU, Purdue, USC, UCLA and Stanford.  Stanford would come in to B10 after a couple of years as an independent.  Stanford and ND are both AAU schools and the culture would fit the B10.  Also, B10 would also wrap up all the major markets on the west coast with Stanford a member, not to mention Silicone Valley.  If the ACC implodes sooner rather than later because of Florida ST, Clemson and Ga Tech, it could all come about quickly.
 
 

Cherish the good memories always and keep love in your heart,  So sorry for your loss.

I think it’s awesome he’s practicing at dinner - dedication!

The only guaranteed starter on this team is Galloway.  The only starter returning from last year's team. Galloway and X will be the team captains and will take on the responsibility for teaching the others the Woodson way and holding them accountable.  How many minutes he plays may be up in the air and whether he will finish the games is also open to speculation.  But, he will start.  Call it team politics if you like.
