Coin doesn't lie. Oh, wait, that's the ball that doesn't lie. Never mind.

The Jackson 5 is going to be on my playlist for the tailgate. Maybe even some Michael Jackson.

IU covers. Book it.

Number one skill need for IUFB qb against Ohio State? The ability to run for your life.

Zander Diamont is out of eligibility.

Sorsby is a slow runner-for-lifer. 
So it’s Tayven.

I thought was the other way around though? I thought Sorsby was the more "fleet of foot" than Tayven?

@Stuhoo I'm asking for a friend.  You captioned the thread and referenced #3 OSU and then your first comment was that we're a 28.5 point underdog.  So for clarification, does that mean we're a 28.5 dog to OSU's 3rd string?

Don’t think either of them are getting away from any of the creatures that will be chasing them in scarlet and gray. Hope Walt is getting the ball out of their hands in a hurry.

Others may know more than me,, but I thought that Sorsby is not fleet of foot at all. I don't think that Tayven is known as a dual threat either.

That includes the 3rd and 4th quarters, which encompasses extensive playing time for OSU's third string.

So yes.

For sure. He should also use any and all the RBs. One of my biggest beefs the last couple of years is not using all the RBs. Unless we have a total badass, allow multiple RBs to get some touches throughout the game. We have 3-4 capable guys, let's allow them all to contribute.

I'm going to assume that whoever starts isn't going to be the one finishing, probably changing by halftime

All kidding aside, there’s a real chance that now that we have a competent offensive line coach , our o line and therein our team will be improved.

[Loaded Chicken Sandwich]

Just score once and it'll be a positive. One TD. All I'm asking for.

[cthomas]

I just hope we get out of the game without any significant injuries. Our depth isn't good enough to overcome losing key players.
