Muddy River Posted November 25, 2023 Report Share Posted November 25, 2023 How kids on scholarship can be so bad at tackling, the most fundamental aspect of defense, is baffling to me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDB Posted November 25, 2023 Report Share Posted November 25, 2023 IU football. In the biggest moments, our defense is the absolute worst. Not even competent. I will be shocked if there’s not a change this off-season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's see if it comes back to bite us in the ass yet again. Henderson missed the crease and bounced it right to the tackler.  Maybe he doesn’t get the first down anyway but there was a crease there.  Also, I’m not making an argument that the call was ok.  Not at all.  Just saying the execution wasn’t good.  Which still tells me something. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rogue3542 Posted November 25, 2023 Report Share Posted November 25, 2023 The most frustrating thing is that I think we are a much better team than Purdue, and we just gave up in the fourth quarter 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FritzIam4IU Posted November 25, 2023 Report Share Posted November 25, 2023 Hope this was Allen's last game with IU. That was a brutal defensive effort. Indiana snatched defeat in the jaws of victory. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-BONE Posted November 25, 2023 Report Share Posted November 25, 2023 Last series we were at 2nd and 1. Couldn't get a yard on 3 plays. Damning indictment of play calling and play execution. Nobody is without fault offensively. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-BONE Posted November 25, 2023 Report Share Posted November 25, 2023 Don't give a damn about the buy out. Allen has underachieved the last two years relative to talent level on the team. He is a good recruiter by IU standards. But what difference does it make if there's never anything to show for it on the field/in the Win column? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU Scott Posted November 25, 2023 Report Share Posted November 25, 2023 I hate running out of the shot gun on short yardage but that is what football is. With Allen being a defensive guy our defense is horrible and can't tackle. He better be out of a job by tomorrow afternoon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D-BONE Posted November 25, 2023 Report Share Posted November 25, 2023 I think on this occasion we had better talent (at least equal) and a veteran coach versus a rookie struggling in his initial B1G campaign. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly, there's no shortage of plays we could be talking about where we failed to pick up a short to medium first down conversion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
