Penix walking to the locker room looking absolutely battered. Hate he had to end it this way but glad he was in a position to rise to his potential.

I hated seeing Penix so uncomfortable in he pocket last night. It brought back bad memories when IU's O-line couldn't keep him safe. I was surprised he didn't scramble and use his feet more.

Wow, didn't know I could like a college fanbase less than some of my all time favorites in PUke, pUKE, and pUKe! Mich fans wow!

You can add the Suckeye fan base to that list.

Couldn’t happen for a worse fanbase. Haven’t been this annoyed about a champion in a long time. 

I used to think Purdue fans were the absolute worst of the worst, but between being a follower of boxing and the toxicity within that sport as well as listening to the post-Covid musings of Walmart Wolverines, I think Purdue fans slightly moved up in my book without actually doing anything.

We hate Purdue fans because we're supposed to. And they stink! But overall, seem like pretty reasonable people outside of the crazies.

I've never met a Michigan fan that I could stand to talk college sports with for more than about 5 minutes. And I don't know which is worse between the Walmart Wolverines or the alums. Both have plenty of faults.

Yeah, and it sucks because now they actually won a title.

Before, they'd flap their gums and puff their chest out despite the fact they had never really won anything, other than the split title in 1997. It was easy to point out that glaring weakness on their resume. Plus, OSU had owned them in the 21st century. 

Guess I'll have to get used to seeing plenty more UM gear up here in northern Indiana.

Godspeed.

I'm glad to know IUFB played in the toughest division and lost to the best team in the country. I'm looking forward to the expanded playoff to shut up ESPN and folks like Finebaum about their beloved SEC. I'm predicting less titles from the SEC going forward.

One of my lifelong best friends is absolutely die hard Michigan. Born and bred in Indiana, still living in Indiana, idk. Something bit him when we were kids. He could care less about IU and Purdoo. 

I guess that's why I don't identify with people saying how terrible the UM fans are. Don't get me wrong - he can talk his trash with no qualms. But I definitely don't see them worse than Purdoo or UK fans.

Hyperbole is my brand, so of course not ALL of them are terrible people with no redeeming qualities, but I'm in the same boat as you with a longtime dear friend being a diehard UM fan and we have (not so peacefully) agreed to not really talk about our teams.

I know approximately 3 UK/PU fans. You might notice I hate everything about Illinois with the fire of a thousand suns. Depends on where you grew up/who you interact with for sure.

The fire of a thousand suns? Hyperbole? Nah. Lol. 

My boss is an Illinois native and fan. Someday when I give him my notice I'm tipping over his Illinois bobble head on my way out, just for you.

I don't know if that will play out, but it will be great to see the on campus games in the Round of 12 and see an SEC team have to play in the North for once and in real elements. It's easier to win bowl games in nice/controlled weather and in most cases within a few hours drive of your school and alumni base.

So how long before they get stripped of the title?

I don't like the expanded playoff, except maybe to 6 teams max. There is no reason the #9 or #12 team in the country deserve a shot at the title. Cheapens the regular season. 2nd tier of teams should shut up and go to the Outback Bowl. But if the result is less of the insuferable SEC winning titles, I'll take it. 

Maybe so, but the more meaningful postseason games, the better. Especially with the regular bowl season being so terrible now.
