OGIUAndy Posted September 24, 2023 Report Share Posted September 24, 2023 3 hours ago, D-BONE said: Between how far I've gotten on DVR so far, comments/reports from here and media, two things stand out to me (despite the no lack of things to criticize). O-line got smoked by a MAC D and Allen reporting in post-game presser that he sensed late in the week we weren't taking Akron seriously enough. I mean, if that's not ultimately on the coaching staff then nothing is. And our play looked like just that. Really sh*tty game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FritzIam4IU Posted September 24, 2023 Report Share Posted September 24, 2023 I spent my morning doing a deep clean on my gas grill and other assorted grills, as well as working in yard. As much as I hate thoroughly scrubbing down my grills, it was more pleasurable than watching IU play last night. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not allowing someone to transfer after they’ve used their one time free transfer prior to being a grad transfer. I don’t see that holding up if that happened.

Hoosier987 Posted September 24, 2023 Report Share Posted September 24, 2023 Awful game. There seems to be a lack of situational awareness. CTA acting like we won the Rose bowl against the 2nd worst team in the MAC. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Common Sense Posted September 24, 2023 Report Share Posted September 24, 2023 "Anchored in substance" as the Oregon coach said in his pregame before beating the hell out of Colorado. IU football is anchored in substance. Probably need to get rid of LEO. This is college football for God's sakes. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Common Sense Posted September 25, 2023 Report Share Posted September 25, 2023 I actually feel like we have a path to six wins this season with some modest improvement. The defense is a .500 level defense and opportunistic. Good quarterback and will only get better. Skill guys have got to make plays. Dropped passes happen. But geez, we could have been up a couple touchdown at the half. Play calling is stupid. Unless you have a kick ass offensive line that can block second level, triple option football is dead. 4th and short, IU should kick the field goal and go up two scores. Allen has got to chill the hell out. He needs to let his D-coordinator go crazy on the sidelines. I think part of the bad decisions that are made are because he is all over the place. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with talent being six-win-worthy with the significant exception that it's hard in the B1G with an impotent o-line whether or not the skill players are good, which they appear to be. Then, you've got the coaching (all areas) piece overlaid too. Coaching staff needs to step up and make something happen. I mean 5 wins would still require 3 B1G wins, which while disappointing, would would at least show competitiveness. Another 0 to 2 win season doesn't cut it. If you take out the COVID season recored TA is 11-35 in B1G with 3 2- win seasons and a 0-win season as 4 out of the 5 years. Yes, it's Indiana football, but how long do you tolerate that rationale? Come on, TA, get something done this year and allay some of this criticism. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not lol It’s just frustrating because just a few years back it felt like we were getting close to having a solid program. we are maybe expecting to much out of a freshman QB! Also a lot of new coaches so could be a few years off again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
