You know, if we just take the 'Eastern' out of Eastern Michigan, people would think it was a good win.  

I would rather win ugly than lose bad. 

We don't have to have a boat load of shooters. We have a couple that's enough with an inside game and great defense. 

In todays game with the shot clock momentum is everything. When the ref made the bullshit call. the game shifted. Then the Noah kid went off. We have to have a defender to take on that person that's in a zone and get in their head piss them off and get them out of sorts. That s what fife was for IU. Dane will find his man. For IU Stewart ran away and hid after that great start. Ball has to move and get shots in rhythm. a win is win. Keep improving.

Why would any sane person list MSU ahead of IU?

Well of course in my heart I don't want too, but my mind says something different. 

This is how I see it shaking out. 

1. Purdue

2. O St

3. Michigan.

4. MI St

5. IU

6.ILL

7. Wisc

Next week we will see who the worst team is. Talking of firing Allen over one bad season riddled with injury is crazy talk. With that said. Something was definitely going on in that locker room? We may never know, but in a few weeks the firings and the departures will tell the story. I am not sure how many of you caught what the announcer said and quickly moved away from it. turmoil and controversy. 

Going to be interesting to see just how much was going on behind the scenes with this team in a couple weeks. 

now the f------ start calling them. 

Nick is a gonner!

oh Man Allen just let Sheridan have it big time. 

More injuries than any team and the country and the only school to require the Jab,

can we just call it covid and quarantine for two weeks and play PU and call it

any kind of offense and we're up two scores right now.

Woof. 

can anyone say portal

And If out student body can't come up with something to scream about PU at the start of games, they don't deserve to be Hoosiers. Come on lets get in the dirt. 

I hate PU but I love seeing Sparty get clowned on National TV

I hate PU but I love seeing sparty get clowned on national tv. LOL

No one is putting it up. So here it is. I hope we have some guys back and healthy and we play are best game of the season.  

Rules are made to be followed if you are a so called development program. Rules are made to be broken if you are a so called brand name. The league officials in all of these power 5 conferences will also change the rules to benefit the brand name programs. This has been proven to be fact. 

No doubt Coach Allen will be very busy in the transfer portal this winter. Just pay them the way Alabama, Ohio State, are allowed to year after year.

I feel like holding in general isn't being called as much this year. I have seen so many blatant holds go uncalled in a lot of different games. 

I totally agree, but my point is they were called on us.

First I didn’t watch the game! Saw we lost and had no interest to watch the tape ! 
just can’t get over how bad we are! Coach Allen has got to own this season  and how bad his assistant coaches or ! That is totally on him!, No more excuses, our coaches can’t fix anything and or over their heads! Maybe we beat Rutgers Maybe that’s all I see us winning! 

coach Allen has no problem taking the blame and has every week. Just as he had no problem winning the coach of the year award last year.

Not being an ass here, but its funny to watch the football fans complain about the exact same thing the basketball board does.

The refs are out to get us.
We have so many injuries we can't compete
We're in the toughest conference/division
We have no depth at [insert Position]
Our coaches are in over their head or don't make good calls/adjustments.

 

I would say all of that was on display today. I watched McFadden get tackled about 6 or 7 times while blitzing today. How many times today did Maryland get a pass interference called on them? 

What we witnessed today was a defense that is beat up and beat down from trying to carry the team all year. I am not sure Indiana will ever have the depth for the offense or defense to singularly carry the team. Injuries was the enemy from the beginning with Penix not being ready and horrible O line play. Our speed guy goes down and horrible O line play. Best D backs get injured and horrible O line play. Injuries, from third string to starting, horrible O line play, horrible play calling and it all equals 2-6. a pipe dream, but we could get healthy enough to win? I would love to beat PU and Michigan's ass and call it a wrap. 

Its been said for a hundred years and it's no different today. It all starts up front. Where we have sucked this year. couple that with injuries horrible play calling at times and a lot of big injuries and horrible officiating and no way IU or 85% of college football teams overcome those problems.  My only question, is something else going on in that locker room?
