ESPN Predictor (Rourke @ qb) IU vs Michigan Winner IU. 81.7%. Michigan 18.3%

November 14, 1987 Exciting BEFORE game started. AT 10 carries for 23 yards. Lorenzo White 56 carries for 292 yards I watched that game and it can actually be googled. Keith Jackson and Bob Griese (said MSU should win) ABC TV MSU ranked 13 IU ranked 16 MSU had a highly ranked defense and IU ranked near last or last in big ten. The late Dave Schnell out with appendicitis surgery and Qb Kramme played in his place.

Fall 2024 in South Central Indiana: The weather, colors, and mood have been maybe the best ever September and October.

Good analysis post game by the coach.

That’s an excellent win.

End of game toughness test coming up, especially mentally.

Tennessee would probably be a 4 to 6 place team in big ten.

Minnesota 1972 (brawl with Ohio State). That team was big and strong and kind of played through the slower motions as I remember.

Has coach awakened from his pregame conversation with Fish yet?

Fever had a short win streak after break but tapered off. That was probably Fever peak including next season under Sides. (Coaching change is definitely in order).

IU 38 Michigan State 13

Nice picture of some IU Lady teammates today with Lexi appearing to be braced up around right leg below knee to foot.

T.J excellent playing and coached to his strengths just like he did at Center Grove high school

IU physical grind out game demonstrating a variety of strengths and strategies to its game.

No problem. IU sustained long drive can leverage Washington defense for quarter 4 comfort and T.J. will shine..

A version of the Wildcat in the red zone works two times in a row after a half decade of trying it.

IU after long first half drive and gets ball to start 2nd half with no turnovers other than on downs…looking for IU to sustain an opening drive with some points to start 2nd half…and leverage game by wearing down Washington defense as 2nd half wears on including plus 2 more turnovers created by IU defense for a solid win.

T.J. is going to settle down and away he goes. He is going to have a stellar game.

On cue

Looking for IU to create 4 defensive turnovers

Believe it or not T. Jackson is about ready to go big time. Athletic and can hold up physically. He can be a running threat to move the chains when needed and can also throw the ball accurately. Like K.R….T.J. will benefit from the OL and excellent receivers he is playing with. Need to get timing and rhythm down this week.

A lot of good players and T. Jackson is very good. He will do well. IU 41 Washington 20

IU is blessed to have T. Jackson as a QB. First and or the biggest situation facing the football team this year. I think T. Jackson and teammates will pass this test with flying colors. Jackson will be a pleasant surprise that in reality won’t be a surprise at all …Jackson was excellent at Center Grove High School a 4 star per ESPN and had offers from most major power 5 programs including some blue chip schools. Plus IU has really good well coached players on the whole team. IU is a really good team. Plus…Both, Jackson brothers are really good people.

Regardless, is there another team in the country that beats Nebraska 56 to 7 on this Saturday afternoon?

Cignetti off to great start for a career winner in both big ten and overall records.
