Sure it was a bad outcome but it didn’t have a negative impact on anything beyond that one game IMO. Doesn't mean rival fans aren't going to talk trash about it for a few years, just like you guys like to talk trash about IU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were on their schedule for the next year too. Not sure how that is a rivalry, but I guess they had to have somebody. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because a lot of the old rivalries (OSU-Michigan, Michigan-MSU, Iowa-Nebraska) are all in the same division now so they had to create new ones. Ours happened to work out since we’re not in the same division. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 2022, each team has a protected "rivalry" game each year, and they have MSU as theirs. IU-PU is the only one that is an actual rivalry. https://btn.com/2018/08/29/big-ten-releases-2022-2025-conference-football-schedules/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't go wrong with either one though! As much as I'm not a Purdue fan, it would be nice if IU and Purdue were both good. It should be a much better national rivalry than it is, but our schools (especially IU) are rarely nationally relevant. At least Diaco won't have to make up a trophy for this rivalry (couldn't help myself!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zlinedavid Posted January 2, 2020 Report Share Posted January 2, 2020 Good showing by Minnesota. Michigan hung with a better Bama team for 3 quarters and didn't make it an embarrassment. About what I expected. Well well, looks like we have the rubber match for the B10 vs the almighty SEC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then the "rules" expert comes on trying to defend the refs by saying that the receiver has to spin or juke around the defender. So, if a defender pushes you a few yards off the line of scrimmage, you're not allowed to push back.. Haha, come on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think replay has made officiating in all sports bad because it gives the officials an out to not get the call right. I am just tired of people trying to make everything in sports be so mechanical or no human element so they are ruining officiating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seeking6 Posted January 2, 2020 Report Share Posted January 2, 2020 Anymore I expect about 3-4 bad calls per game along with incorrect interpretation by booth during review. If Wisconsin doesn't turn the ball over 4x none of the bad calls come into play. Hate to be that way because I know the officiating stinks across the board in all levels but this one is on Sconny. Not the refs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosierinbham Posted January 2, 2020 Report Share Posted January 2, 2020 Agree with expecting a certain amount of bad calls, especially on the road, but critical calls that change the outcome of games are unacceptable. I like Ohio State, but can't stand Wisky; they both got screwed. Both teams had their chances to make defensive stops, but that has to mess with your head wondering how you're going to get screwed over next. Watch the Ohio State game and you'll see the db's sarcastically putting their hands up when they were 3-4 feet away in coverage. Right or wrong, they were being affected.
