2023 IUFB Prediction League - Week 2 vs Indiana St 9/8/23 7pm BTN

[LIHoosier 25,855]

Quick turnaround as this is a Friday night game against our blue neighbors. Don't Archie this one, IU football.

How does this work?

Each week I will create Prediction League threads for the weeks game(s).

It's a simple concept:

Each week you start with 100 points (only if a prediction is made, otherwise 0 points for the week)
+25 PTs if you guess the winner
-25 PTs if you pick the loser
+10 PTs if guess IU score correctly
+10 PTs if guess Opponent score correct
-The # of points different between the actual and predicted score of IU (over/under doesn't matter)
-The # of points different between the actual and predicted score of opponent (over/under doesn't matter)

*** Reminder if you post a prediction and want to change it, please just POST a NEW Prediction, do not edit a prior post as I may miss those edits.

The person with the most points (MINUS LOWEST GAME) at the end of the season wins.

Our defense didn't look bad against OSU. Our offense did. 

ISU was shut out by Eastern Illinois on Saturday.

With that, I give you ...

Indiana wins this one, but it's embarrassingly close.

This implies the 'Mores get us in the endzone.

Indiana State was god-awful in their opener.  While I don't expect Indiana's offense to dominate, I think their defense and special teams will put 2 or 3 TDs on the board to make the score look worse than it was.

Indiana 50, Indiana State 0.
