I’m as down with a good rivalry as the next guy, but comparing it to the ACTUAL Civil War, ya know where people died and all, might be a touch on the tasteless side.

Haha, that is unhinged.

It definitely adds some spice to the game tonight.  Classic college football drama.

Spoken like a true Mizzou fan. Wrong side of history much?

Both are top ten teams, but both IU and Miami have been criminally under-ranked at the start of this season. Who in the bloody hell thinks that Oregon and Texas have a better chance than Miami and IU of dominating and winning it all.

....I'm all about giving ANY team credit where credit is due, no matter how much I dislike a team.

Yes, Miami is definitely good, probably better than last year, but...... Florida A & M (obviously) appears to be a really bad team. I have a feeling that Miami's focus is to "leave no doubt" in anyones mind where they feel they belong. JMO

Miami is beating the teams they are supposed to beat but they are doing it in an "ON A MISSION" fashion. They only have two decent teams on their schedule. Right now, I don't see how they stay out of the CPD. And going undefeated isn't out of the question.

Is that really a more interesting question? I know we talked about this with Montverde basketball a couple of years ago but football’s such a different animal. Would think, say Purdue, would beat the absolute living mess out of any HS team. 
Am I wrong?

You are correct. And that should give Barry Odom an idea - Purdue should be playing their out of conference games against high school teams.

One more vote that you are quite correct.

I’m not clicking that so as not to give him any more interactions, and it’s probably bait anyway, but I certainly hope he’s getting dragged in the replies. What a stupid premise. 

To your Purdue point, they beat ISU handily last week and ISU would wax the best high school team in America. You’d have to get pretty far down Bill Connelly’s 1-7XX rating of CFB teams from FBS-NAIA before I start listening to an argument.

Purdon't has a football team?   Why even schedule that? POTFB.
