  1. That’s why I chuckle when I read that we played well in a spring game...
  2. We made the Minnesota receiver work for it. He did not get his 100 yards until there was 10:29 left in the 3rd.
  3. I said this last week but....I really thought we had at least turned the corner when it came to making tackles but we have really regeessed the past few weeks
  4. Time flies......... We are only 10 months from the “I can see us winning 8 or maybe 9 games” posts which will be followed by calling prognosticators (who always turn out to be correct) crazy for predicting we will stink again.

    So the OSU QB just underthrew his receiver and the PU DB was called for pass interference when he made contact as the OSU receiver came back to the ball. Herbstreit says good call as there was obvious contact. The same thing happened in the IU game, when IU had the ball, but pass interference was not called. Griese said that was a good no-call because the offense should not be rewarded for a poorly thrown ball. Sometimes it is like the NBA where the “stars” or prestigous teams (ie PSU) get calls but the IU’s of the world do not get 50/50 calls.

    It is sad but it does illustrate the difference a coach can make, Wilson won a grand total of 10 BT games in his last 4 years. 40% of those (4/10) were against historically awful PU teams. How lucky for Wilson, that PU was really bad, as he needed PU wins to get into his two bowls. So PU was absolutey at the bottom of the barrel but a new coach immediately helped them get some decent wins. I hate PU but it is fairly impressive.

    I thought this was illegal but apparently Purdue locks their entrance gates so that half of the crowd cannot leave at halftime. I proudly back the freedom to leave early at IU that allows 50-70% of the fans to leave at the half.

    Indiana vs Penn St Game Thread

    Are you implying there is a correlation between having the 10th or 11th or 12th best recruiting class and having the 10th, 11th or 12th best team in the Big 14 ?

    I’m not sure that even the players parents are still at the game.

    We need to run some clock and keep it to a 12 point loss. Could be considered another asterisk win!!

    My fault. I honestly turned to my wife and said “just watch....he will run it back”.

    We have no luck...Penix limps out to the locker room.

    Good that Polk dropped two balls. He played with McSorley in HS.

    I meant that the end was a group clown show.

    LOL’d when Allen, at the half, said he brought in Ramsey for time management.

    Bad couple of minutes for Fitzgerald. wiffs on the McSorley run and then loses the tight end on the TD pass.

    (2019) WR David Bell to Purdue

    Hopefully the staff sent Bell to the library, rather than the game, during his official visit.

    Corruption in College Basketball

    Three things are clear... Kansas is a filthy, low-down dirty program. The NCAA won’t do a damn thing. If KU makes a run in the tourney their filth will be ignored by the talking heads just as they ignored the University of No Classes infractions

    Corruption in College Basketball

    A little off topic but still related to cheating... Does anyone hear anything about WWW (Worldwide Wes) anymore? There used to be a lot of articles about his “special relationship” with Scumapari/UK but the connection seems to be quiet these days.
