IU vs Purdue 11/24/18 Noon ESPN2

[colonel06 1,917]

I'll admit that I refuse to watch IU football but I do follow the game threads.  Even to me, someone who is far from an expert, I can't understand the number of times that we need 9 yards and we throw a 7-yard pass, etc.  It's blatantly clear to me that this tactic has failed on so many occasions but I can't fathom why Coach Allen hasn't given DeBord a kick in the a$$ and told him his play calling sucked.  

I’m not so sure he really thinks it does Old Fart

That’s just terrible. This tacking is so bad. Would’ve forced Purdue to punt from the end zone

[JSHoosier 20,310]

Of course, they convert 3rd and long via screen pass because no one ever taught this defense how to friggin' tackle.

[VO5 8,272]

Aaand that’s it for me. Good luck to everyone who keeps watching this shitshow

[JSHoosier 20,310]

Who is supposed to teach these guys to tackle?  And why do they still have a job?

IU football can’t get that lucky

Maybe this means we'll beat Purdue in basketball, since we never seem to beat them in both sports in the same year.

Probably the only positive of today's game:  Stevie Scott has broken Anthony Thompson's IU freshman record with his 6th 100-yard rushing game. He has 104 yards on 20 carries today.

Speaking of him ... When I was in school (or right before I got there), we recruited Dave Schnell and AT, who were in the top 5 nationally at their positions. They were guys just about any school in the country would've been happy to have. When is the last time we had recruits like that? It seems every time we get a commit, it was between us and a MAC or C-USA or AAC or even a top-notch FCS school.

Why does the administration not care about athletics?

We’ll have to play much better than we’ve seen PU trounces the cupcakes. We on the other hand, well, you know...

We are vanilla, undisciplined, and soft.  It's getting very, very old.  Someone.  ANYone...make a damned play.  We have to throw screen passes against long yardage because our QB can't throw it down the field today.  We get roughing the passer penalties.  Chop blocks.  Personal fouls.  Undisciplined garbage.  This team frustrates me SO much.  I know it's not all Ramsey...   Allen needs to really be taken to task after this season.  His team looks horrible.

I knew Count Von Count would come in handy

That covers part of the first quarter.

Let’s just be glad that Brohm will be gone after this season

He won't leave. We'd never get that lucky.

Honestly it’s IU football. We don’t have the money to spend 5 million on a coach and no coach wants this job.

We have to get lucky and get the right up and comer. But realistically that guy will leave if he can prove himself.

That’s why I root for Allen. He would stay no matter what success he has.

Rooting for IUFB is an exercise in futility but I know that going in so i can still enjoy myself.

We are the dumber team in every game we play. Just pitiful

There's a 'Hey, we care' penalty to further the cause

[Hoosier Guy 7,529]

This is ridiculous. IU is so stupid and undisciplined it’s unreal

To be fair, AT did not play the first 4 games!
