Losses in the SEC are as good as wins so even though teams look like they have losses, the whole conference is basically undefeated. I think they should be forgiven if they're caught looking ahead to Chattanooga. What a tough opponent.

One thing all this NCAA eligibility chaos the last few years, and this year in particular, has done is highlight how jacked up our court system is. These are definitely not unbiased decisions being made for these cases so no reason to believe they're unbiased in other types of cases. The judicial system is trying to make laws not just upholding them.

What a CF the NCAA has made of this season. All that and they still won't get the laws they want.

Cig throws the curveball no one saw coming and trots out Cherry. Nah, I'm with you. I think it'll be Hoover.

I haven't looked at them but it wouldn't surprise me, especially if it was an SEC team. Loses there are as good as wins, don't ya know?

Committee: "When teams don't win that week they can take a large drop in rankings. IU didn't win this week."

Every October we are the "deepest we've been in probably a decade or more." Once the real games begin, we're "significantly lacking depth. The coach should be fired for being so inept as to put together this severely lacking roster."

Owed retention bonuses even though he got fired? Whoever wrote up that contract needs to be fired as well because that's not a retention bonus in that case.

IU won the CSL wild card meet on Thursday then had to swim the final on Friday. Tough. They finished 4th (last) in the final, which isn't surprising considering it was 2 days in a row for them. Some of IU's top swimmers also sat out the final.

It was their AD.

Too highly ranked.

Not super accurate but certainly more accurate than he's been at IU. Around 66% the two years before compared to 60% this year. For comparison, the year before he came to IU, Mendoza was at 68% accuracy. So less accurate than Mendoza but not a lot.

Cignetti hates to lose. Winning has also earned him big money and continuing to do so will result in more raises. These 2 reasons are why I think the coaching staff will go with the quarterback they believe will give them the best chance at winning individual games as well as making the playoffs. They have a lot more information about the extent and nature of Hoover's injury than we do plus see each of these players every day in practice so they'll be making an informed decision.

Defensive rebounds. That's a lot of defensive rebounds. I guess they'll be winning by 100 points per game. 40 assists per game. So basically every shot will be assisted. We're going to witness PU being the best college team ever.

Former Hoosier swimmer Van Mathias (still trains with the program and is the Director of Operations) and current Hoosier Liberty Clark had record breaking swims at the short course WC trials. Van had a World Record as well as 4 American and US Open Records. Liberty had an American Record. https://swimswam.com/2026-u-s-short-course-world-championship-trials-records-roundup/ The teams have the CSL this week. https://swimswam.com/college-swimming-weekly-preview-november-2-8/

I didn't even realize Indiana did strombolis different until a few years ago when I was craving one. Looked all around and at first was like "What's this? That's not a strom." Then I realized that Indiana is where they're different. Still haven't found one here, only normal. There is a place where you can get the large tenderloin sandwich. Hoosier Cafe in Chandler. No strom though.

A normal stromboli or an Indiana style stromboli? Plenty of options for normal ones around here. Not so much the Indiana ones.

This guy sounds spiteful. I agree that IU probably should've taken a TO there but, man, I just can't get past the tone. https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/ncaaf/bigten/2026/10/31/curt-cignetti-indiana-football-clock-management-mistakes-minnesota-cfp-hoosiers/92542765007/

Some of the posts in this thread are crazy. Even though they aren't playing the best football ever, they still have only 1 loss on the season and are one foot landing several inches over from being undefeated. Cig turned the program around over night and not only has a national championship but only has 3 losses in his time at IU. He's not infallible or above criticism, nor are the players, but some people here go way overboard. I think he has earned at least some leniency.

I really think part of the problem is that the players are feeling a lot of pressure as defending champs. Playing tight. Radicic especially is having a difficult year. Maybe he's just trying to boost their confidence and stay positive. Enough people are taking shots at them, he doesn't need to publicly.

You're underestimating the ineptness of Congress. Even the NCAA falls short of that lofty standing.

I wonder if this obstinance will backfire on the NCAA. They're not going to get the bill they want from Congress, so all this chaos they're creating just highlights for everyone how unfair and incompetent they are. I could see them dropping even further in the public's opinion. Someone in PR should let them know that they should give up soon.

Look, they don't want to put any good defense on tape during exhibition season. Obviously. He's playing 5D chess

The B1G is implementing parts of the bad bill before Congress. The part that restricts NIL. They'll hurt themselves unless other conferences follow. I think the B1G and SEC want to get back to cheating helps teams. Looking at the numbers, this shouldn't hurt IU since the cap is more than what we currently spend. https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/big-ten-cap-nil-spending-protect-college-sports-act/
