rogue3542 Posted September 29, 2018 Report Share Posted September 29, 2018 IU is line play and play calling away from being a decent to good team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy06 Posted September 29, 2018 Report Share Posted September 29, 2018 Haven't been able to watch today, just listening to Fisch and Buck. Just feels like the whole second half has been "not to lose" instead of trying to put a bad team away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWatShot Posted September 29, 2018 Report Share Posted September 29, 2018 If we blow this game, the season is essentially done. No way we'd recover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iuthruandthru Posted September 29, 2018 Report Share Posted September 29, 2018 Wow, that’s how bad Rutgers is. They just didn’t need to do anything. IU was not going to run a play there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rogue3542 Posted September 29, 2018 Report Share Posted September 29, 2018 I do have to say, that was a veteran play by Ramsey. Everyone else is just standing around, and he's still locked on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Artesian_86 Posted September 29, 2018 Report Share Posted September 29, 2018 Not a pretty win at all....UGLY win, but still a win is a win. I sort of feel that they took Rutgers a bit lightly. I said before the game started that Rutgers was not going to lay down. Rutgers will beat someone at home this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's IU football. Yeah...I was happy at the half...no reason not to be as I saw it. But I got beat up for saying "negative" things during the MSU loss, so I figured as long as IU is winning everything is good. Guess not. LOL.

milehiiu Posted September 29, 2018 Report Share Posted September 29, 2018 Number 21 with just 58 running yards. Note to myself, he is just a freshman. Number 12 with an "efficient" game. Per Coach Allen : "He's a tough sucker." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rogue3542 Posted September 29, 2018 Report Share Posted September 29, 2018 Here's looking at the bright side. IU has had a game like this the last few seasons, but we've lost most of them. Today, we did just enough to not lose. Hopefully we've gotten it out of the way for the year. Also, Debord HAS to get better with the play calling. We were really aggressive in the first half, and we were dominating. Then...we come out and run it up the middle three times, and every possession after that was overly conservative. We cannot win that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FWIUFan Posted September 29, 2018 Report Share Posted September 29, 2018 Always love the W. Just my observations: 1. OL still not perfom to level we need. Should have dominated Rutgers if our lineman are as good as advertised. 2. DL did not pressure QB enough. 3. PR is a smart, tough QB. Still unsure of his ability with long ball. Seems we threw a few more passes more than 20 yd today. Hope he's capable when called upon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But my question is...... who called the play to draw RU offsides, which worked .... but allowed IU to get the big pass play ? I don't know, but that play locked the game at the end.

According to CTA they were going to run the ball. PR stated he saw the flag and audibled to the pass as he's been coached. Gutsy of CTA and smart of PR. We are still a work in progress and I don't see us losing out. Bowl still possible! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy06 Posted September 29, 2018 Report Share Posted September 29, 2018 I don't think we lose out, definitely some winnable games, but have to be better than today. If we play like this next week it will be ugly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We try to draw the other team offsides with the hard count on every other play. It was a nice twist to add the motion on the hard call. While that was one good play call that worked, we shouldn't have had to rely on that to win the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For those folks that hold more positive viewpoints...I apologize in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can tell you the guys on the radio was questioning why IU was playing conservatively. Plus the 4th and 9 in FG territory and you go for it and come away with nothing? I don't know if that was a "gutsy" call by Allen or just plain dumb. Another team I watch is ND, and Kelley is notorious for playing conservative, drives me nuts!

The worst part of that 4th down attempt is that IU took a shot into the endzone on both third and fourth down. If Allen thought they'd be going for it on 4th down, they should have been going for the first down, not taking shots at the endzone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
