lucel15 Posted November 18, 2016 Posted November 18, 2016 I decided to do this. Such a shame. Anyways..... Hoosiers Kick-off tomorrow at 3:30 up at the big house on ESPN. If you guys haven't heard looks like O'Korn will be QB. Jimmy Khakis is keeping tight lip on everything. I'll be up there enduring the rain/snow and wind. Remember basketball season doesn't start til March. Also, we still have 1 more regular season game and then a bowl game. Go Hoosiers....shake up that CFP party.

akhosrof Posted November 18, 2016 Posted November 18, 2016 Finally a game topic. I don't know what's wrong with this week. Usually I go on the opponent school's SB Nation page to read a preview from the opponent's point of view. Maize N Brew just posted their preview this hour. I think we have the right formula to win this game. We held Barkley to less than two yards per carry. If we can contain Michigan's running attack, and put the pressure on O'Korn, we will have a chance. On offense: Can't turn the ball over! Need to try and run the ball and take shots downfield. lucel15, HoosierAloha and hsrtxp 3 Quote
hsrtxp Posted November 18, 2016 Posted November 18, 2016 Agree. If defense plays like they have been and offense plays up to there potential WITHOUT turnovers I think we have a chance. Then again, sometimes I feel like Charlie Brown, who keeps trying to kick the ball and each time it's pulled away.

WayneFleekHoosier Posted November 18, 2016 Posted November 18, 2016 For most schools , CBB doesn't start until March. For Indiana, it starts during the first recruiting period. I don't know or expect that we can hang AT the big house. A backup QB won't hurt our chances, that is for sure. However, the ugly weather will likely lead to less passing down field, and it might negate that advantage for us. Not expecting anything here, but excited to see our performance as always. Losing last week was such a major bummer. Had it in the proverbial bag. HoosierAloha 1 Quote
hsrtxp Posted November 18, 2016 Posted November 18, 2016 Question: are they overlooking IU or are they pissed and going to prove they belong after last week. I have to believe [emoji35]! Wouldn't think coach khaki will let them be anything but completely focused on IU. But with OSU one week away.....Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners HoosierAloha and lucel15 2 Quote

Can we sellout on their run game and have Fant, Ball, and Co. get a few Tom takeaways? Josh and WayneFleekHoosier 2 Quote

Louisville felt like they were focusing on all the wrong things whereas Michigan has been quiet. Hope we pull off the huge upset though. hsrtxp 1 Quote
Sota Hoosier Posted November 18, 2016 Posted November 18, 2016 Hoping we play decent and don't turn it over. There is a good level of talent on this IU team but seem to self-destruct at the worst times. Not expecting much but would be great to keep it close!Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app ALASKA HOOSIER 1 Quote

johnsoniu Posted November 19, 2016 Posted November 19, 2016 Any advantage we gained from UM having to go with a backup QB is probably cancelled out with the wolverines coming in mad as hell after losing last week. Effects of crappy weather unknown, probably bigger advantage to the home team. Who knows, maybe we find out Lagow is a bad weather QB. Stranger things have happened. Usually not to our favor, but they happen nonetheless. My biggest fear is the early bye is catching up to us. Gut check time boys. Talent wise we can hang. Take care of the ball, play smart, and hope Jabrill Peppers oversleeps. We got this! Go Hoosiers! hsrtxp, HoosierAloha, ALASKA HOOSIER and 1 other 4 Quote
Sota Hoosier Posted November 19, 2016 Posted November 19, 2016 The Hoosiers are so unpredictable which makes this game interesting. I could see us keeping this close for a while.Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app ALASKA HOOSIER 1 Quote
akhosrof Posted November 19, 2016 Posted November 19, 2016 I don't think the weather will affect Lagow. Look at the NFL: Joe Flacco, Ben Roethlisberger, teams look for big QBs with strong arms who can play in bad weather. Lagow is in this same mold at 6'6" 240 with a rocket arm. He's built for this weather. Granted he's a Texas boy, so there might be an adjustment to the wet northern cold. However, I don't think his arm strength will be affected, nor will his accuracy get much worse given his hand size. johnsoniu and CR3AMnCR1MS0N 2 Quote
