Seeking6 Posted September 20, 2022 Report Share Posted September 20, 2022 For the first time this season we get to see how this team plays without the must win pressure. Kind of looking forward to it. Players knew how important those first 3 were with the schedule,etc...to get bowl eligibility. Now we just head over to Cincy and let it rip. See what happens. I'm still looking for more pitch and catch on the offense. Saw more of it this past week vs first two weeks combined. I have zero clue what Cincy's DLine is like but I sure would like to see some more running in space and not up the 4 or 6 hole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosierfan1901 Posted September 20, 2022 Report Share Posted September 20, 2022 Can’t we all agree that IU will on Saturday, they might be down by 10 at half, but they come back in the 2H to win the game by 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosierfan1901 Posted September 20, 2022 Report Share Posted September 20, 2022 Cincy does have the 11th best passing defense currently too. But has 73rd best rushing defense also, which I hope we exploit under Henderson 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5 championships Posted September 21, 2022 Report Share Posted September 21, 2022 (edited) Honestly Cincy fans were incredibly annoying last year at the game. They acted like they were Ohio State. Haha like who you do you play? 2 power 5 teams the entire year? Real tough schedule. Come play in the BIG East Edited September 21, 2022 by 5 championships Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OGIUAndy Posted September 21, 2022 Report Share Posted September 21, 2022 (edited) IU got to where it needs to be, but this game might indicate how the rest of the season goes. A win would be huge, although it's far from a must win. I do think it is a "must be competitive" type of game though.

Billingsley99 Posted September 21, 2022 Report Share Posted September 21, 2022 I might be way off but a 16.5pt dog for the Hoosiers feels like a very safe bet for those of you that partake 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly having a center start his 2nd ever game. I can see the O Line struggling in this one. I’d be happy with a close game in the 4th. the one we really need to get is the Nebraska game the following week.

I’m sure their crowd will be energetic but if Nippert was in the Big Ten it would be by far the smallest stadium in the conference. it only seats 40,000, for comparison, even Northwestern seats 47,000. It is the smallest stadium we will play in by a considerable margin. Second smallest will be Rutgers, and that’s a considerable jump up at 52,000.

So many factors at play. Now, I have zero knowledge of the UC fanbase, but if this game is a sellout and the crowd is raucous, this could be a good "environmental practice" for when we go to Lincoln, Columbus and East Lansing later in the year.

jojo123 Posted September 23, 2022 Report Share Posted September 23, 2022 Notice how the Bigs tv heads said last week, that the Hilltoppers was a trap game. This week it was said again. Cincy a trap game.? But we are not a favorite? One thing for sure they hate the fact we beat the Illini. Oh and now they are saying the illini are one of the favorites to win the west. Hell just keep winning. Go Hoooooooosiers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrflynn03 Posted September 23, 2022 Report Share Posted September 23, 2022 IU will miss an extra point early in the game. Cincy will score as time expires. The score will be tied 37-37. Then IU will block the xp attempt and return it for 2 points. IU wins 39-37. If I'm right, I will buy everyone a lottery ticket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluegrassIU Posted September 23, 2022 Report Share Posted September 23, 2022 So IU is a bigger underdog against Cincinnati than Florida Atlantic is to Purdue. Not sure who that looks worse for, lol Just a weird looking thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
