You argue like a member of NBA Twitter. 

Bruh... Penix is 78-149 on the season. 52%. With 4 TDs and 6 ints... We really gonna try and say Penix is even in the same realm as Chappell?

Good god Wisconsin scored 83 points on us that year. In football. Lol

Yah. We were getting blown out every week against good teams. Pretty easy to pad stats when the other team can go into a bit of a prevent at half. LOCS thinks the world was invented 5 seconds ago

Penix is in junior year Kellen Lewis territory right now... What happened to Lewis? Had his job taken. By who? Ben Chappell.

I had thought about going to this game as it’s only 3 hours away from me, but I wanted to wait and see how we looked early in the season before committing.. Decided not to spend several hundred bucks on what seemed to be a potential blowout. 

Anyway, this is basically the worst way for the game to start for us. Our offense isn’t good enough to climb out of an early hole, so we needed the defense to stay strong. They helped with the INT but unfortunately the offense couldn’t capitalize.

I honestly didn’t watch IU football back then but his stats look like they were good. 3300 yards and 24 tds to 9 INTs as a senior. 

Back then our offense could score. On the other hand, our defense couldn’t stop a thing. Our secondary roster management was like high school athletics. Bring over talented athletes from other sports because we couldn’t recruit anyone. Our games were inevitably shootouts as a result with the other team usually winning by either a blowout or in the last minute because we couldn’t stop anyone.

You have no idea why Lewis lost his job, do you?

He was inconsistent but was on more than  off. This year he has no on button.

This one's gonna get ugly really quick.

Wait. Are you comparing a pandemic shortened season to a guy who played for a team that was getting blown out on a weekly basis. Oh and our entire offense was Penix last year. You are something else. 

[Hoosierfan2017 19,886]

Penix stinks but the OC doesn’t do him any favors. Our playcalling is so basic and predictable. First down rush up the gut, pick up 2-3 yards, 2nd and 7-8, repeat. Minimal rolling Penix out of the pocket even though he’s better when he’s on the move.

He stunk without James Hardy, that’s why. When he no longer had Hardy to run 40 yards downfield double-covered so he could scramble, he was SOL. Plus his off the field problems sealed the deal….

He definitely was doing better in the TD/Int area. Consistency was a problem. This year though... Too often it seems he's just chucking it into random areas half the time. Throws a lot at the ground.

It didn't happen within the last 5 seconds.. So no

[Alford Bailey 12,244]

We gonna give ourselves a chance or play Penix

[LamarCheeks 16,811]

Sorta surprise they're punting. They could get 3 yards with their eyes closed.
