In my best Max Klinger voice -  Holy Toledo!.  We're going to be 10-0 in 72 hours and no game thread!!    I don't follow the betting lines but last I saw we're a double digit favorite.  Current weather outlook has afternoon showers but only 30%; temperature 60; wind ESE at 9 mph.

Max Klinger, to know him is to laugh and cry with him.  Jamie Farr rocked drag.

Frank: "Another week in command and I'd have had you out of that dress!"

Klinger: "I'm not that easy!"

Halloran: "Hey... up close you're a guy!"

Klinger: "Far away too."

Klinger : "Sir, I have to confess: I'm a Communist. An atheistic, Marxist, card-carrying..."

Henry Blake : "Bolshevik".

Klinger : "No, honest".

I disagree with Klinger about Tony Packo's restaurant.  But the mementos on the walls were great.

Klinger, to Radar:  "You were born a clerk.  I was born a civilian."

Game day!  Michigan is a mess.  And Indiana is outstanding!  Mark it.  And nail it.

You have no idea how happy I am to finally see people excited for a Michigan game.  It's going to be a beating, but we're going to do the beating.

Repping IU well sailing out of Miami today. Hopefully the sports bar on the ship will be showing the game. IU 14.5 favorites, never thought I’d see the day

Announced today redshirt sophomore offensive lineman Drew Evans will miss the remainder of the 2024 season due to an Achilles injury suffered during a practice this week.

Oh no……hate to lose an OL. 
 

Anyone have insight into the quality of his replacement?  Bummer that this happened right before facing UM’s DL.

That is incredibly awful and devastating. Not much depth on the O-Line.

[RoadRage]

I really want to stomp Michigan, but I would settle for a 1 point win and nobody getting injured! I hope we get comfortably ahead and pull a few starters!

Maybe this guy?

From SI.com

Without Evans, Indiana could turn to fifth-year senior Tyler Stephens for the starting left guard position. Stephens leads Indiana's non-starting offensive linemen with 68 total snaps this season. He has mostly played in offensive formations where Indiana brings in an extra offensive lineman.

Stephens started 31 games at James Madison from 2020-23, taking snaps at left tackle, left guard and right tackle. He was named second-team All-Sun Belt in 2023.

“Sluggish”  first possession.

[WayneFleekHoosier]

Michigan finally figured out their QB for their game against us?  
 

Gonna have to gut this one out.  Lot of talent on the field.  
 

Running game gonna be challenged.

Yep,

a few weeks ago I was hoping it would still be “Tuttle time” for this game.
