ND will get to the CFP before LSU.

If ND was in the SEC theu would recruit just like the rest of the SEC. not all players at ND are rocket scientist but compared to the majority of LSU players come on now. This is nothing more than about money.thats it. Load up the next 5 or 6 years and retire.

I don't live in a glass house and never said IU or ND were holier than thought but what goes on at LSU is obvious. Like I said it's about money and more freedom to go head first into gray area with no worries. I think if LSU thought Dave Bliss could win games they would hire him

I could care less who the coach is. The next one will be fine but you SEC LOVEFEST goggles cloud your vision. ND, OSU, would be fine in the almighty SEC.

Just how does that mean ND could not compete in the SEC. Are you sure your not Paul Finebaum Jr. Really starting to think so. It's all about money and now with the NIL and LSU does not care about ethics. It's a chance to win the title. I guess his motto is if you don't like the results find a place that let's you cheat more

Real big, rape, gun charges, etc..... real big

They shouldn't but I don't trust that committee, Finebaum has a lot of knee pads he can wear out to get Bama and UGA both in

If you keep throwing the ball 40 times a game JT will have from Chrsitmas til camp to rest.

Elbow and short corner get scorers to those spots and you can destroy a zone. It's not so simple against a Syracuse zone but those holes are there. Guys need to attack and not be hesitant. If we make decisive moves we will have no problem beating their zone

I just don't get all the Bama love this year. The only truly good team they beat was Ole Miss. Barely beat a bad LSU, and Auburn, lost to a bad A&M team and beat a good Arkansas team. There is no way a 2 loss Bama team deserves it.

In the 2nd half the Colts had zero balance to the offense. Several years ago I heard Antoine Bethea talk about how easy it is to play defensive back when you make a team 1 dimensional. He spoke of the offense getting ahead and forcing teams to have to throw to catch up. Also said when DL can pin their ears back and go after the QBturnovers go up and his.j9b got easier. Also said that teams like the Patriots and Steelers gave the Colts troubles because they never became 1 dimensional. Yesterday Todd Bowles tricked Frank into becoming 1 dimensional. Take a look at the 3rd quarter aND beginning of the 4th. The box was not stacked like in the first.in the second half I believe Frank got out coached.. learn from it and move on

That's my whole point if he gets 25 touches I think the Colts win. I am not advocating 35 runs a game but your best player cannot got 4 or 5 series without a touch.

I agree with almost all of this. I just think JT has to get touches every series. He is special and can take itnto the house at any given time. Both turnovers came in the passing game as well. Whether up or down I had not seen the Titans abandon the run with Henry back there. Have to keep them honest. I think Bowles saw that the Colts were dead set on.passing and made them pay.

Lots of facets of course. I agree we shot ourselves in the foot with turnovers. How many of those drives would end with a JT TD? zero because he wouldn't get the ball. In the 1st half even thought we did not run much it gave opportunity for Wentz to carve the defense up. Once the Colts decided to stop running TB dropped into coverage more and was not stacking the box like in the first half. TB DL is very good but it's not elite. When you score 31 you should win for sure. Another thing is to eat up some clock by running the ball. Look up the Colts record when they throw it 40 plus times. Maybe I am just too old score but with a 2 score lead and the best RB in the business you ride that horse to the finish line. My biggest issue the past 4 years is that it seems like at halftime adjustments are made by the other defense and too many times I don't see the Colts countering very well

Ever, I think the Titans beat the Colts this year with a 4 turnover outing. How oh yeah they went with their stud RB. Guess what everyone stacks the box against him. JT would have found holes and I also think you have said so many times how great our line is eventually it would pan out right. The Colts are one of the worst in the 2nd half of games and that's when you wear your team out. The Colts have blown 3 double digit leads and in each have thrown the ball 40 plus times in each. Since your ok with the play calling it must be fine

25 and you win in my opinion. So if the Cuse zone packs it in around TJD 26 straight 3's are fine with you and you just take TJD out

My last statement about play calling. Every team in America tries to game plan on defense to take away what the other team does well. If a team plans to take away your best player is the best option to take that player out. Basically that is what Frank did. Taylor was the best player on the field, and you just let him be a non factor.

26 straight pass plays, you don't feel that made a difference.

My only issue with Frank is that even though Taylor was stuffed he went completely away from the run. We had success in the first half just by mixing in a few runs and allowing Wentz to carve up the defense. Once we abandoned the run the Bucs changed Defense in the 3rd and we continued to throw the ball. The defense in the 3rd was the same as it was in the 4th and Taylor had no issues. Like I said in the game thread the Colts beat themselves and are showing just how good they are but need to finish. I called into the Greenie show 2 weeks ago and I told them I believe the Colts would beat the Bills and Bucs and make a deep playoff run. Greenie said he could see that. They have proved they can play with anyone but beating anyone has eluded them for the most part. Texans and Jags are wins. You have to win 2 out of NE, Arizona and the Raiders. I see 4 of 5 just like you.

I feel really good about this one. We are not counting on Freshmen to carry us. Our vets will do just fine in the Carrier Dome and a double digit win for the Hoosiers.

Frank catching lots of heat by the national guys for his usage or lack thereof of Taylor. Hearing a few people that think the Colts are the best team in the AFC from top to bottom and that if Frank did a better job they wold be the #1 seed.Earlier today Greenie said that if the Colts get in he is picking them to be in the Super Bowl.

As do I. Going to be an interesting couple of weeks

Yes we opened 5. Got 6 Ripken all black box corrections. 4 Griffey Rookies 2 Randy Johnson blacked out Marlboro ad, several sheffield cards. These must have been late boxes in the run after all the errors were noticed. Between all of the unopened packs of Donruss, Fleer and Bowman we got 14 Griffey rookie cards.

My bench had 1 heck of a good week.
