Maryland just ran that possession like it was end of the 4th.

Jackson is regressing!

Play calling is terrible. If receivers can't get open what's he supposed to do

You would too with his coaches. He left Tennessee for this lol.

Looks like maryland wanted to try something out of Walt bells playbook, and it didn't work

Yup. Time to start over. Again. And I’ll die on this hill: if you hire a guy for your job that no one else would hire for theirs, you’re gonna be wrong almost every time. And Allen wasn’t getting a power conference job anywhere else. 

IU is never going to hire a top coach to turn this losing program around...Allen at least seems to love the job, our only hope is he gets better players and coaches!

And in IU coaching staff’s minds…they have Maryland just where they want them.

Without getting into too much detail as I haven't tuned in yet, I assume the game has been "run it up the middle" by the Hoosiers, resulting in no gain, while the Terps have dominated the defense, right?

Lucas hasn't been good this year.

Tom’s gotta go at the end of the season. Team is dead. I wonder who he’ll throw under the bus during the post-game after this one.

He's going to scout all the JuCos and benches of the top programs!

Our last offensive play Carter was open with nothing but green turf between him and the end zone. TJ overthrew him by 10 yards.

Just ran it up the middle (for a first down) for the 2nd time in the game I think. Turns out we suck everywhere.

Might be an improvement!

Jaylin Lucas is billed at 185 pounds on Wikipedia; I say that's nonsense.  He's lost 40 pounds.

I think I mainly disagree.

IU doesn’t really have the option to hire the guy that another P5 team wants for theirs.

We've gotta be a dice-rolling program. At least get some young guy with upside.

My wife just asked me to name 1 thing the football team is good at and the only thing I could come up with was “warmups” but I’m not really sure that is even accurate.

The fan who insisted that this is a business!

I’d bet quite a bit of $$ that he will be pretty good next year but at another school.

The football team is good at losing.

At one point (after his ridiculous extension), I think CTA had one of college fooball's top 20 salaries. So there's somewhat of a commitment to football. Unfortunately, the commitment has been to making bad decisions.
