No. 23 is way too low for the Indiana Hoosiers

I called this earlier in the offseason. Indiana is more than sneaky-good; the Hoosiers just might be good. Hiring Curt Cignetti away from James Madison has brought newfound life to the Indiana offense we have not seen since Kalen DeBoer, or even Nick Sheridan were in Bloomington. This team played hard under Cignetti's predecessor Tom Allen for years but became so moribund offensively.

 

There will be at least three teams in the Big Ten making the playoff, possibly four, and maybe even five if the SEC cannibalizes itself. After Ohio State, Oregon and Penn State, who is going to emerge as No. 4? It might be Michigan, it might be USC, it could be Illinois, possibly Nebraska, but what about Indiana? This is a team many picked to win only a few games. Now they are one win away from a bowl.

We have been late to arrive to the Indiana party, but I think this is going to be one worth staying at.

I don’t know about underrated, but I’ve seen every Mizzou(#9) game and multiple games of Michigan(#10) and USC(#11) and with my untrained eye  I’d be completely comfortable against any of those teams on a neutral field.

No, they should have extended him.

My heart is bleeding - NOT

2026 4-star QB Oscar Rios has decommitted from Purdue. He is the second recruit to back off his pledge to the Boilermakers this week.

CBS Sports story on Cignetti

In case this hasn't been posted.  Nothing new, just some nice recognition.

Is that gonna go down as a worse hire than Hazell? I wasn’t sure if that was possible.

Yeah, if you’re on a national broadcast and getting you’re a$$ beaten so badly that announcers are talking about the rules for shortening the game, there is no coming back from that. You are dead man walking. Firing your OC is not gonna do it.

Purdud off to a Purdoo start. Two Wisconsin punts; two Purdidn’t fumbled punt returns. One Wisconsin touchdown.

Almost halftime and UCLA is only down 7-3 at PSU.

UCLA was tied at the half at LSU.

Our win at UCLA might have been better than we think.

I think some injured players have returned which has helped and they’ve simply improved.  IU’s win does look better IMO.  :)
