OSU has lost 7 of 8 and we are a 6 point dog. How bad are we then. Holy hell.

When you lose at home by 14 to Penn St what do you expect? Being a 6pt underdog is probably about right. I hope it’s that close, because if it is, we just might have a chance to win.

Seems like with Peacock the on demand doesn’t work until the next day. 

Which is something they need to fix.  It's 2024 NBC.  The Big Ten should have never came to an agreement with that kind of restriction.

If you want people to pay extra the experience should be at least as good as free!!!

The other night my son was running late and wanted to watch the  pay for view wrestling. He had me turn us TV on Peacock and then pause it so he could start from the beginning.

Indiana has struggled often this year, and the Hoosier Nation fan base isn't very happy. But it's even worse at Ohio State. 

The Buckeyes are next up for Indiana, with a Tuesday night game set in Columbus. Ohio State has lost seven of its last eight games, and two of its last three at home. Both teams are 13-9, but it's Ohio State that's a game out of last place.

But get this: Oddsmakers favor Ohio State, mostly because Indiana hasn't been very good on the road all year and they looked pathetic and uncaring in an 85-71 loss to Penn State at home on Saturday. According to the SISportsbook.com gambling website, the Buckeyes are a 5.5-point favorite.

It's a given that both teams are desperate for a win. The Big Ten standings have been flipped on their side this year, with Michigan 14th, Ohio State 13th and Indiana — if you want to take the negative approach — tied for 11th. 

This trio, mind you, has won a combined 57 Big Ten championships, with Indiana earning 22, Ohio State 20 and Michigan 15. The trio of Northwestern, Nebraska and Penn State haven't won any titles in the past 90 years, but they've combined to win 17 league games so far. IU, Ohio State and Michigan have only 10, and that includes Indiana beating both of them, and Michigan beating Ohio State. Against the rest of the league, they are a combined 7-21.

Pathetic, isn't it?

I'll be watching tonight but apathy is setting in. Didn't search out my Hoosier sweatshirt to wear this morning. I find myself coming to HSN and checking the Colonial Crester and Football forums before the basketball ones. My wife no longer hears me complaining about the officiating during games. Well, maybe just not as much and not as loudly.... With that said, I'm expecting a bounce back effort. We know we can beat these guys. A disappointing showing and IU basketball will no longer be must see bball for me the rest of the season. I'm already thinking about not watching the PU game as the last thing I want to see and hear about is PU .

With you on the bolded, I watch to escape the world problems not bring more pain! The last half dozen games I turned them off at halftime or soon thereafter!
