IU vs Minny Game Thread

[Kelsey]

Purdue still got beat 56-0 by Ohio State

[Kelsey]

Yep. Glad you joined us. We run a game thread for all FB and BKB games. Hope to see you back.

I will definitely be back

And my quickly thought out math failed, if IU makes either PAT, they play it safe there and kick the FG, and win the game. They should have made damn sure to not lateral it down there anyway. Really tough to see a bowl here now.

Tiny's fault.

I was okay with the first 2 pt attempt, it would've tied the game.  I would've gone for the PAT the second time though.

 

I hate the lateral call.  Why the hell did Coleman give up on it?  It wasn't a good pass, but he could've covered it.

Tiny's fault.

LOL, probably. My wife would definitely agree.

 

I was leaning towards it being Reb's fault. I think he finished that lucky rum and coke too early

I came here with a lot to say... But I don't think any of those words would get by our filters....  I'll settle for "Dag Nabbit."

This post game press conference is going to be EPIC

If it doesn't include the words "Doug Mallory is no longer employed by IU football" it's not good enough.

Naw, I sipped it out till the clock ran out.

I'd have to see it again, but did he ever even get his head turned around on it? I thought it hit him in the back and that he probably never even realized the pass direction.

[HoosierReb01]

And I really think Natty is to blame.

It hit him in his hands.

 

After he got up all he did was stand there, even though the ball was right there at his feet.

[HoosierReb01]

Oh, I got it. It was TRMBH's fault. She was at the game today.

I might need a rum & coke or a few when she sees this.

[johnsoniu]

I think Coleman gave up on it because he thought it was a forward pass. We've run that play a couple times and it was a little swing pass. Either Nate didn't drop deep enough or Tevin got too flat in the route. I'm leaning towards Nate because it was behind TC anyway. If he leads him by about a yard, he walks into the endzone, that whole side of the field was cleared out, except for #21 and he had a bad angle.

[IU Hoosier41]

Every single person I was wTching the game with yelled JUMP ON IT.... I know e couldn't have known it was backwards, but he should have atleast known to jump on it.

If you are dumb enough to run that play, you should at least tell your players, "hey this could be a backwards pass. Jump on it regardless of if you think it went backwards if you don't catch it."

The defense was bad again, but they were good enough to win today. This loss falls 100% on Wilson's shoulders for ever letting it get to that point. You kick the FG to go up by 5. Then when Minny scores the TD they will have to go for two. Regardless of that play, Indiana could have ended in the same position down by 3 if they convert the 2pt play.

I yelled for him to jump on it too. My main point is I am fairly certain it was not a designed lateral, which people are tearing CKW to shreds for. Was it an unnecessary risky play? Yes. A monumentally stupid play call? No, because if executed properly we score or it's an incomplete pass.

 

Now, going for the 2 pt conversion the second time was unbelievably dumb. Can no one on the coaching staff count? Did they lose that little "when to go for 2" cheatsheet every other team seems to have?

Hey hey hey now why are we blaming me for this.
