Still say we should try to score, until we are eliminated from the CFP you have to score as many points as you can!

The one bright side is we know Coach Cig will be more pissed off than all of us combined. He may lock the players in the film room until next Saturday.

This game was too much of a slog. Hoping next week is better.

Throw it here.

Cig looks so pissed lol

Woof.  Hoping to see a lot better game in person next week.

Besides that WTF moment at the first drive, a rather pedentic opener.  Not impressed with our red zone offense or pass game, but the rush game and defense is quite good.

He's gonna turn into a chimney stack tonight.

I was a little surprised ODU didn't onside kick after they scored. Maybe they were just happy to be close. 

 

The ghosts of IU football past still lurk when a mid-major opponent is within striking distance in the fourth.

Glad we weren’t at Iowa today .

So much for me having a crack at the prediction game.

Hard to feel good about this one. Obviously the first game and ODU has played others P4 teams tough, blah, blah, blah. Still, Run defense was terrible, dropped a sure TD, missed a FG, fumble, turn-over on downs, poor short-yardage blocking, Mendoza looked very rough. Over all a weak effort against a SBC team. 

IU isn't a top 20 team, imo.

Me too.  We would have had to forfeit our home opener.

[Home Jersey 16,803]

Maybe we are not a CFP team this year, maybe we are. Too early to say with certainty. Every team that makes it, will get a lot better between then and now. We won game 1. Yes there is a lot that could've been better about today, but on paper, we end it in as good position as any other team to get where we want to be. Survive and advance, lol

Florida State beating Alabama 24-10 in the 3rd quarter......

Hopefully that translates to some suicide sprints after several hours of film.

[Pagoda 5,448]

That is not what I hoped to see today.

But, it’s one game.  We have three weeks to evolve as a team and figure some things out.  Unfortunately, we have a lot of work to do.

[RoadRage 3,063]

So did ODU take Sarratt out of this game or did Mendoza just not look for him?
