Game Thread: IUFB vs Michigan St Noon BTN

[LamarCheeks]

Officials didn't help matters -- but the decision-making is horrid. 

 

[DChoosier]

The killer was not holding MSU on the 4th and three with a low snap.

[RaceToTheTop]

Thanks, refs, for throwing a ******* meaningless penalty after it doesn't matter.

[rcbowla]

That was not great officiating

Hate losing to classless programs like Michigan State.

[Hovadipo]

Tom just went after their QB…

Tough look. 

[maharkn]

Five star kicker on the bench. If Dolsonn doesn't fire him today then Dolson's job need to be in question.

Turned it off. What did he do?

I'll take this version instead. When comedy was funny.

That really sucks! The refs wanted to make sure we had slim to none chance to win!

I'm not a fan of conservative play -- but what do you gain by going for it on 4th and 1 from that far with 18 seconds to play? 

Although ... if we make a FG, we're subjected to more of this atrocity. 

You kick the field goal at that point.

[Alford Bailey]

Classic Tom Allen. Let’s figure out how to lose.

[LamarCheeks]

Still not sure I understand going for it on 4th and 1 from the MSU 27 with 18 seconds to play. 

Yeah, we got the first down -- but then we have the ball on the 25 with 12 seconds left. What the hell were we gonna do in those 12 seconds? 

There have been many times for CTA to roll the dice and pull out the stops over the past few years. That wasn't one of those times. 

What a goofball!

When the clock hit zeros he went well out of his way to run by him and yell something at him. Probably something along the lines of “that wasn’t nice, you cottonheaded ninnymuggins!” Didn’t even have the class to stop Coach K-style, just yelled and ran away.

Classic clown show BS. 

[Napleshoosier]

Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.  That’s IU football!

There’s no good reason to do it. Not when you only have 1 timeout. Too many things can go wrong (as shown by what actually happened). Tom’s at the end of his 7th season and still has no feel for the game. He’s just out there winging it.

Tough. Poor Tom Allen.

I want him gone but yah. Like those last 3 calls, two being none calls, were rough. The no DPI was the worst. Dude never attempted to play the ba. It wasn't all that well thrown. But I think it looked a bit worse cause of the whole defender impeding thing

I was just confused why we felt the need to call our second timeout after they called theirs to make a decision. Was just sitting there like "???????????????????????????????????? lol"
