I’ll be scratching my head over the lack of awareness about an onside kick for weeks now. Not sure what they were expecting UT to do there

The kicker telegraphed it too. Then only one guy on our special teams unit seemed to realize what was going on

No it wasn’t 

Went to conservative mode on offense when we could have cut their throat and then let them fly down the field when we went into prevent defense with about 6 minutes to go. Reminiscent of the MSU game. And....we weren’t prepared for the onside kick and made extremely poor use of out timeouts (think we used two tonight to ice our own kicker...lol).

They just said that teams that trailed by 13 with 5 minutes to go were 0-471 this year. Now it’s 1-471.

Bigger picture we won 8 and played a bowl game in Florida. I would have taken that in a minute when the season started.

 

 

Yes it is.

 

The kicker has one job. ONE.

 

He missed a FG and a GIMMIE XP.

 

He failed.

If he makes the XP and misses the FG it’s tied.

 

He missed both.

don't start THAT crap. 

He’s right though. Anyone familiar with my posts on the basketball threads knows I’m not quick to blame coaches but this loss falls on them. It was just horribly mismanaged.

Haha, can’t believe some think these clowns are really IU fans. I give them props for making taking the time whenever IU plays turrble or losses but damn. Get a new gig.

If your “friend” only showed up when life tosses you a bad break would they still be your friend?

I'm sure gradman took a quarter long piss in the third quarter....that's why he didn't post.

Some people post just to blow off steam. Most are too engaged in the game when it’s going good.

Tom Allen is now 0-2 in bowl games. He’s also proven he might be the dumbest decision maker to ever get a raise at IU. I’d trust Mike Davis more.

Yes, our coaching staff deserves blame for this loss.
Yes, our missed kicks deserve a lot of blame for this loss.
This was our best season in decades.  This program is trending up.

I wonder who would win between this team and the 07 team... makes you wish we had a defense like we did this year in some of those Kevin Wilson years.

FG was a 52 yarder so not on him at all. Plus he was basically iced multiple times. The XP hurt but we were still up 13 with 5 minutes to go and allowed them to score twice. The onside kick imo was one of a number of head scratching blunders by CTA on the night. That and piss poor clock management/use of timeouts. He certaintly had a game to forget.

This team.  This was a great season.  I haven't been able to say that in decades.
