Let’s go!!! Got some tough ones coming up

Never want to listen to Phi Simms call one of our games again. 

[Brass Cannon 25,765]

Has IU ever won 10 of its last 11 big ten games?

Fernando Mendoza: "I know I shouldn't be saying this, but I probably cooked people's spreads, and I apologize for that, but my job is to win the game."

My boss had us by three touchdowns.

For anyone that wants to hear this.... Fisch with the call

Defense held them to 13 that I will take anytime.  It’s our offense line that sucked!  You got two weeks to fix it boys!

I think a lot of it is because of Iowa’s defense and their strong focus in the trenches. They definitely get the right players for those various positions.

The end was BS.  Victory formation is designed to make the game official without getting anyone hurt.  The other option is to run it into the line and get someone’s knee blown out.   Complete crap.

Iowa had three timeouts and there was 24 seconds left.  Why wouldn't they use them?  I remember Michigan blowing a game to Michigan State in those circumstances.

Any explanation on that rule?

If my coach didn’t do that I would be livid.

Interesting stat:  Iowa has lost their last 12 games against ranked teams; ten of the twelve were on the road.  This was only their second home game against a ranked opponent in five years

[southsidehoosier 5,250]

First win at Iowa since 2007

Just like 1967.  Harry Gonso goes to his favorite receiver, Jade Butcher in the last two minutes to defeat Iowa.  That was in Memorial Stadium with a large home crowd, but it was still a huge win…just like today.

I’m just gonna have to take extra BP meds on game days cause the regular dose just ain’t cutting it!

Probably an unfair characterization but I'm hard pressed to remember an IU football team that would not have rolled over and played dead in the same scenario as what our team faced today.  Wasn't pretty but the vast majority of people will only see a score and have no idea of just how this game was actually played.

Osterman -

Obviously not a vintage day for IU's offense. But the Hoosiers still had more rushes of 10-plus yards (6) than Iowa had allowed through its first four games (4).

LSU loss to Ole Miss = top 10 Indiana tomorrow?

#8 FSU loss Friday night could help too.

Ya know, if Oregon gets beaten badly by Penn State tonight, we may go into that game as the higher ranked team

Because they suck.  :)
