On a positive note it’s still a 0-0 tie.

More positivity: College Gameday at Cincy has been a sh!t on Gary Barta fest. So that’s been fun.

I feel like we cover this. Maybe after their loss Michigan is thinking too far ahead at their must wins against PSU/OSU and we have our bowl eligibility on the line. We catch them totally off guard and put in a mighty valiant effort culminating in a drive to score in the last minute to only lose by 20. Legendary.

I can’t come up with a more realistic scenario.

I'm definitely not thinking we win this game and there's a good chance it won't be close, but I do think it's fair to question how good this Michigan team really is and if they might come out a little slow after last weekend's blown game or look ahead to better opponents to redeem themselves against.  They struggled at home against Rutgers and at Nebraska, and beat down G5 teams, Northwestern, and Washington thanks to a back loaded schedule and Washington being mediocre.  The only exception was a win at Wisconsin with Mertz knocked out of the game and Wisconsin's backup QB looking lost.  Plus Michigan lost to MSU by only one point less than we did.

Also, aside from 2019 where Michigan won big, Harbaugh's meetings against Indiana have resulted in an OT win, a 10-pt win, another OT win, an 11-pt win, and a loss.

Checking in. 
My enthusiasm level for IUFB is lower than the chance of locating a hot chick in W Lafayette.

 

Edit. Oh sorry. Gary Barta sucks farts out of a clowns arse.

Tuesday night can not get here soon enough!

[Hovadipo 57,532]

3rd and 5 QB draw; drink. 

[LIHoosier 26,831]

If we can have this drive go about 29 minutes, 55 seconds that'd be great.

[Loaded Chicken Sandwich 8,870]

Missed a roughing the passer. 

13 needs to actually try or stay off the field. 

Why does Sheridan refuse to run slants and ins and get into the space in the middle of the field? Way too many routes going towards the sidelines with this offense. 

[Naturalhoosier 15,439]

I don’t mind a QB draw. But every single play?  MCulley has to let it develop a bit more. Just sit in the pocket for a second or two longer to open the lanes a bit more. 

[Alford Bailey 12,426]

Purdue has 2 of the best wins (at the time) in CFB. They are not a good program but capable of having a legit good year from time to time.

When your OC has further to go than your freshman QB…

[Brass Cannon 25,005]

Our offense is like a bad madden player 

[Hovadipo 57,532]

Michigan playing smart sending a ton of pressure at the kid that’s not comfortable with pressure yet and playing behind a below average line. I suspect they won’t stop either because I don’t know that we have an answer. 

[Alford Bailey 12,426]

Well instead of having a bad QB that just throws we have a bad QB that sometimes runs
