Before the B1G kicked off, a Purdue fan called into DD's show and asked him what he thought Purdue would do this year.DD was like"oh yah you guys will win at least 5 and probably 6, including beating IU". Lol

I keep brining it up, there is no reason for Oklahoma to be above us. If they are after today thats beyond ridicukous

I LOVE THIS TEAM! It’s just a shame we can’t be at the stadium supporting these kids and thanking these seniors for what they’ve done for Indiana football and completely changing the culture. I already can’t wait to be in the stands next year supporting these guys...no reason we don’t start ranked top 10. Truly believe this program’s success is here to stay!

Iowa State jumped us last week, even though they lost to Louisiana and a flailing Ok State team.  Oklahoma has a name so they'll stay ahead of us too. 

We should jump OU, Miami, Iowa Sate, and Georgia but I'm sure the CFP committee didn't get ABC during the IU-Wiscy game today.  Good thing it's back working so they can evaluate Clemson!

We play in a conference where the athletic directors are willing to change the rules to benefit the league's best team.

 

Expect ridiculous.

I heard that the rules could only be changed with unanimous consent.  Not sure if that’s accurate.

Im not sure what’s sadder that this even exists or that poor Andrew Drake could rally anybody else to donate.

It kind of just blows me away. Iowa State and Oklahoma have legit bad losses, Louisiana and Kansas State (They're one of the worst teams in the nation), whereas our one loss came @OSU. 

 

You can't even really argue either one has a better win than us now, the only one that could qualify is when they played each other. Unless you want to pretend Okie State isn't just some mediocre program

The win against Wiscy should give IU quite a bump in the rankings.  If IU is not 8/9 I'd be surprised.  The only way those teams are ahead of IU is through recruiting rankings and program prestige.

IU has no bad losses and a solid win against Wiscy.  I still don't get how Georgia is so high with zero great wins and huge losses against their good opponents.  Doesn't make sense besides $EC.

I suddenly have an opinion on whether or not the playoffs should be expanded to 8 teams

5 $EC teams, O$U, ND, and Clemson?

Assuming IU takes care of business against Purdue and we either play in the B1G Championship game and beat NW or we play Iowa in the crossover game, both of those wins will most likely be top 15 wins. If IU finishes 8-1 with a B1G Championship or even a win over top 15 Iowa in their final game, does anybody else feel like IU has a legitimate case to make the playoffs? I know some things would have to go our way but it’s not totally crazy to rule it out just yet. It’s December and we’re talking about IU’s (somewhat) playoff chances. Amazing!

Would definitely need some whacky losses to occur but it’s 2020 anything can happen.
