The Daily Hoosier -

Before the season ESPN's FPI model gave IU a 17.3% chance to beat Penn State. It now gives the Hoosiers an 82.7% chance.

The PSU podcasters are throwing in the towel as well. For us old-timers this is hard to process. Welcome to the new world order.

Gus Johnson please lay off the overly exaggerated excitement, overly exaggerated emotion, overly exaggerated enthusiasm, and overly exaggerated pronunciation of words.

Still a little surreal to me that we're two touchdown-plus favorites over the Nits in Happy Valley, when we're 2-25 against them overall -- with both wins in B-town. This was the country's No. 2 preseason team. 

My former boss is a PSU grad and emailed me saying he thought the spread wasn't enough -- that he didn't think his boys could stay within 3 TDs of us. 

After nearly two-plus seasons of this wonderful football ride, I don't think skeptical is the right word. I wouldn't say I'm skeptical, but to used a hoary cliche -- I just don't like to count our chickens before they're hatched. 

So, while I'm expecting us to win -- if somehow we don't, it might not surprise me all that much. This is till Penn State and they'll still have a stadium full of 106,000 hostile fans.

Alec Lasley - Indiana gets Aiden Fisher back today against Penn State. Elijah Sarratt a game-time decision, however.

They have the talent and are due for a better game. Home field helps. Wouldn’t surprise me if it’s a tighter game than some expect.

still think we win, just maybe not cover the spread….BUT, hoping for another woodshed exhibition!

the earlier post about lesser teams tiring of the final scores, we’ll, that’s why they are lesser teams.  Just ask us, we know from experience.  ECSTATIC to have some killer instinct back on campus.

Time for Becker, Brady, EJ Williams…TEs and RBs to all step up, as they have and will, again.  Screw all the predictions and betting spreads or whatever.  The score is 0-0 first play and the second and the third etc etc etc.  GO HOOSIERS!!!

Coach Cig arriving at the beaver bowl.  Looks like he’s in a good mood!  Go Hoosiers!

Penn State is not due for anything….as disarray in absence of long time head coach taking affect on full display.

Holy smokes—does PSU really have that many scholly guys injured or are those healthy guys getting off the sinking ship?

The PSU fans don’t have much to fun with, but kudos to them for posts well-played:
