#5 IUFB @ #2 Ohio State - 11/23/24 at Noon on FOX

[LamarCheeks 18,580]

Funny how a win over weak, pathetic, little ol' IU -- the losingest program in FBS history -- is such a feather in O$U's cap.

Its and ESPN and SEC affair. Film on a 17 point loss would’ve showed us as close except for two bonehead special teams plays. Annoncers were even lobbying for it. Now is just a curb stomping.

Yep,

I perked up when the announcer was throwing out the “they were close except for 2 special team plays” excuse (even though we were outclassed) but then they got the last TD. That last TD might have been very detrimental.

Now that is huge.

If we’re in on Tuesday, we’re in for good. 

[LIHoosier 26,045]

That pick surely has to count, right?

It’s official now. Whew…

Finebaum will defend the Ole Miss loss because Florida was a very, very strong 5-5 SEC team heading into todays game 

[RoadRage 1,722]

I have no doubt Tom Allen's Hoosiers would lose to Purdue next week....Cig won't let that happen! We had a bad game today, OSU is better, but we also made unforced errors that were uncharacteristic. Still a great season and Cig is here thru 2032, so we will have another chances!

Ole Miss eliminated

[DChoosier 8,213]

We have one foot in the playoff grave but….

Ole Miss lost

Let’s hope Minny beats PSU, Army beats ND and Kansas beats Colorado and Oklahoma beats Bama…..
Who knows?

Once we started rolling and had a chance at the CFP I said I actually preferred we did just enough to make the playoff but not have to deal with the big ten championship since we’d prob be 11-1 anyway. Maybe this is for the best. But I hate Ohio state. What a waste of the color red pairing it with gray… 

[RaceToTheTop 25,288]

I would not be all that shocked if Minnesota gives Penn state a game

One of these two happening pretty much erases the margin issue from today imo. Kansas did their job last week; that almost locked in the Big 12 being a one bid league.

Who knows if it’ll even take all that but man would it be nice if it played out that way. If Notre Dame loses to Army, that is going to shake things up big time.

I think PSU is overrated most years.  
They are often treated as a top tier team but in reality they are usually a high mid-tier team.

[LamarCheeks 18,580]

Today sucked. 

But we were picked to finish 17th in an 18-team conference -- and are now 10-1. 

I'll take that six days a week and twice on Sunday. 

 

[IUHoosier5 1,586]

That Ole Miss loss may be all that we need.

I’m telling you this would be bad. Better hope army gets eliminated and nd loses to usc if you want teams out. Army beating nd could easily result in army and nd in over IU.

No doubt, in the grand scheme of the horror story that is IUFB this is still a dream season.
