2024 IUFB Season

[RoadRage 1,679]

To be honest I never really expected us to beat Ohio State in Columbus, but I have seen them play 3 or 4 times this season and this was Howard's best game, maybe not numbers wise, but his decision making was his best, maybe partly because he faced very little pass rush. On the other hand I thought this was easily one of our worst games, of course part of that was the OSU DL, but we also made a number of unforced errors and had dropped passes and the play calling did not find the weaknesses in Ohio State's defense that other teams found. When teams like Alabama, Georgia, and Texas have bad performances they are considered a fluke, but when Indiana lays an egg it is who we are....I think this team can still, win a game in the CFP, maybe more?

Heather Dinich is such a traitor. She keeps attacking us.

This will change through more wins. Most of the country has this perception of IUFB and rightly so. This is brand new territory for the program. It's not for the coaching staff but it is for the program. We'll make noise in the CFP wherever we end up playing. I foresee this being the new expectations for IUFB going forward... and it's spectacular!!!!

She's just a talking bobble head for ESPN at this point. She knows who signs her paychecks. Most of the folk at ESPN keep going after IUFB. It's all good though, being 10-1 in the Big Ten will get you in the EXPANDED CFP.

I would feel great about a PSU - Miami path to the final 4.

I feel the same way, but I bet enough teams lose in rivalry week to see a shake-up. As long as we don't have to go to Georgia, we have a good shot.

I also wouldn‘t mind a PSU matchup.

The OSU game was the first time the team encountered a huge/hostile/“big time”/loud crowd. I think having played that game was good prep for the PSU environment.
