I am really impressed with the way we took care of business. I think we win vs. Meeechingan at home. I don't think we beat PSU, but coming off a BYE I think Deboer has something creative foe for their stout D. That PSU game is interesting because they have Minnesota this week and OSU after us. Very possible they are looking ahead. PSU is also probably thinking "Minnesota and Indiana....this was supposed to be our break before OSU. We're going to have to actually show up now."

jefftheref Posted November 3, 2019 Report Share Posted November 3, 2019 Congratulations to the players , coaches and fans on the win. Indiana looked like the team it should always be. A WINNER! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milehiiu Posted November 3, 2019 Report Share Posted November 3, 2019 Total team effort. Best game of the year for our Hoosiers. And I hazard to say, best game in years. I saw the defense step up. The offense had some spectacular plays. Especially the catch by Hale. Special teams with some great plays to keep Northwestern deep, and Justin Logan remained perfect kicking FG's for the season.

Our four BT wins have been against teams that are 3-21 in conference. Think we will be top 25 if we beat PSU (highly unlikely) or UM (fighting chance at home but they are certainly looking better than they did earlier in the season). In any case, we are going bowling and that is GREAT and a step in the right direction for the program. i agree. we still have not beaten a good team this season. is penn st a night game?

Our guys are playing with an edge and have confidence. Sure, things have broken our way with scheduling but past IU teams would invent ways to lose against teams we should beat. Nice to see an IU team taking care of business! everyone else is curb stomping maryland. we barely survived Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michigan is playing better now than earlier in the season, but we have them at home and have been playing them close for several years. This is probably the best chance in years IU has the opportunity to beat them. Harbaugh sucks and this is a vulnerable Michigan team. IMHO. hope you are right, but as you said, they finally look like the team they were expected to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minny id play em anywhere and feel like we would have a solid chance.. Wisky would have to be at home. But ya if we had Wisky and Iowa at home I feel we would have a legit chance.. no shot being in the east with OSU and PSU. hopefully conference realignment is coming soon! there won't be a realignment. best hope is for no alignment, as in eliminating divisions entirely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead, I’d rather look at yesterday’s game and say we beat Northwestern worse than Iowa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milehiiu Posted November 3, 2019 Report Share Posted November 3, 2019 47 minutes ago, jv1972iu said: The cold and the score = leaving early Yes. As I posted earlier. IU played late morning, early evening games when the weather was warm. The problem with that, is many IU fans were non believers, at that time. Then... it made no sense to me, once the interest in IU football, picked up. that IU was saddled with a night game when the weather (for the fans) would be a factor. Oh well. It is what is is. IU is 7-2 and this IU fan is a very happy camper. Bowl game here we come ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
