How in the hell was that not a penalty on 6? Late hit and way out of bounds.

Saban must really need money to do those AFLAC commercials…..

No, but we would have looked better if Fryfogle caught that. We need a big play or two to get some momentum.

Our new punter needs to get more consistent but he has a leg and I think he could end being a good one. Nothing like learning on the job (still find it crazy that his Iowa punt was his first football game punt ever).

He literally targeted a defenseless guy laying on the ground… WTF

I believe the replay booth.

Yes, we have to flush that bad call and move on but it’s a bummer that the Cincinnati offense went from rattled to looking much more comfortable. Need a good drive to start the second half. Allen won’t do it but if Penix looks bad the first 2 series I’d give Tuttle a shot.

Need to change the momentum with a good drive to start the second half.

They just showed the replay and he was clearly shoved in the back. Just a staggeringly bad call….and it wasn’t even called on the field!

He was shoved into him

Our D is just crushing them. Love it!

Love how Penix suckered the defender and Carr went to open space.

We better F’ng score this time!

THAT…Was “old” Penix.

Yes, I also saw that. Sort of a brief painful limp.

It must be a rule that networks have to mention IU futility trivia every time we are televised.

Let’s get 7 out of this drive. Everything is clicking except the downfield passing game. Hope Penix gets more comfortable and that changes. Would love to see Fryfogle involved.

There is a reason James left Two reasons (Carr arriving and Baldwin) actually.

Crowd is WILD..Love it.

Yes….the blocking was, dare I say, outstanding that series.

Love watching our D. Hope the OL and Penix can come through.

Against Iowa we were already down 14-0…..

This game is huge on so many levels… *win this and Iowa is a faded memory. *the sporting nation does not completely believe the IU story. Win this noon game on ESPN and our defeat of the number 8 team in the nation will be nationally highlighted all day and night on ESPN, highlights/recaps etc *a win would solidify our recruits belief that Allen has the train rolling. There might be a little bit of doubt if we get smoked by both Iowa and Cincy in our first 3 games. Want the Florida/southern guys to feel they made the right choice and show the Indiana kids (HELLO Mr. Curry) that the last 2 years were not a fluke. *it will keep the mojo going with the team and program. *Crowds….47k for Idaho was exceptional especially when you consider that we were blown out by Iowa and there were very few Idaho fans in attendance (ie we did not depend on 12k from UM,OSU etc). Beating Cincy will help keep the students interested and with future single game ticket sales. I’m pretty confident our defense will keep Cincy contained but am concerned about our offense, especially Penix and the OL. What a 180 degree difference from years past when we could score a ton but were unable to stop anyone. Can’t wait for Saturday.

Vegas is not trying to predict who wins. They create a point spread they hope drives 1/2 of the bets to be placed with one team and 1/2 of the bets with the other team. If the bet money is evenly split then Vegas is a no risk sure winner because of the juice (vig) they get. They don’t adjust the spread during the week because they think a team has a better chance to win or lose but rather to help drive more bets to a team that “needs” more bets in order to balance the action towards the desired 50/50 balance.

At least you get to go. Should be electric next week.
