IU up 2 to 18th in the Coaches Poll and up 2 to 16th in the AP Poll

I still have very little faith that they can make it into the playoff with 1 loss, but seeing them ahead of 2-loss Ole Miss in the AP poll is mildly encouraging.

Is there a place where I can find in depth stats? In particular, I'm looking for offensive line stats, stuff like hurries/pressures allowed, etc. etc.

IU/Washington game on the 26th is at noon on BTN. Rise and shine, Huskies!

I’m extremely tired of noon kicks. I’ll continue to bank on Michigan being the NBC night game.

Counterpoint: pretty good to have road teams on a flight and with a time zone change on the field warming up at an unusually early time of day.

See: Iowa scoring 40 pts including 4 offensive TD's in one game!

Counterpoint: When you reach a certain…uh…vintage, you pray for that noon kickoff because you’ve already been up for like 7 hrs and you have to fit in a nap to make it through a 7pm kickoff.

Counter to the counterpoint: Though my official BTB location is “Robbie Hummel Sucks, Actually”, I’m 90 minutes away from home games and am tired of 11am Hova time kickoffs. Cig would tell you that we’ll beat their a$$ regardless.

Night games suck for everyone! But I’d make a special exception for a national TV sellout against those turds.

In general, I agree. For a home game against a west coast team? Noon seems like an advantage to IU.

Last night I was watching The B1G Show on BTN and Matt Leinart mentioned IUFB has a legitimate shot to make the CFP. He and Dave Revsine seemed shocked about it. I freaking love it! 

One game at a time folks. Big game this Saturday, if you're going bring your A game. They'll need our help.

Articles about Cignetti and IUI from the Washington Post and New York Times so he's being noticed for what he's done.

So cool! Thanks for sharing, but the Washington Post only offers a one time free read if you put in your email and the NYtimes wants a subscription.....

Wish I could figure out how to embed this tweet. 

Hardly a McAfee guy but this clip is about as good of an IUFB interview I've seen. 

Cig taking the opportunity to use McAfee's platform/the MNF mentions courtesy of Joe Buck and Aikman... capitalizing on it for recruiting... is a thing of beauty I never thought we'd see. 

[LIHoosier 25,438]

I've tried everything in the book, I think the embed issue is up to the programmers of the forum software. I don't know if we could have a GoFundMe to pay for a software update or if its something they've never developed since Twitter became X.

Copy the link from twitter. Change "x" in the URL to "twitter" and bang.
