I can see them being at #14 in the CFP rankings cause of brand bias.

If I’m Cignetti, as soon as someone asks about falling behind, this is my answer:  “Well, you know, that was by design.  You see, a bunch of you media types have been saying we hadn’t faced any adversity this year.  So, we manufactured some adversity, and I think we can all agree that we handled it pretty well.  Next Question..”

Great game and circumstances to fight against

IU is the national story in college football. It has a huge fanbase with likely a lot of secondary fans that like a feel-good story. In this era of money ruling all things college sports it would be absolute insanity to leave IU out of the playoffs if they finish as a 1 loss team with that 1 loss coming at OSU.

Probably a lot of good high school recruits saying "that looks like fun!" too...

"The Spartans were outclassed. By Indiana."

Sparty fans have seen the light 🙂

Love this headline-

"Michigan State pummeled by undefeated Indiana at home"

Well we weren't ranked by the AP in the preseason, we are not stacked with NFL players like OSU, we have a first year head coach, Yada, Yada, yada

At this point in the season, the question should be, “who can play with US?”

I wouldn't know why any offensive skill guy wouldn't want to play in this offense. Hell there is no reason any player not wanting to play here.

IU after the 1st quarter

Such a strange feeling being down 10 and having no doubt.

It is easy to say after the fact but in the moment I was perfectly fine spotting them 10 points because let's be honest, at some point that was going to happen. Rather get it out of the way today than having it happen for the first time in Columbus.

What a response though. 47 unanswered points. Total, thorough dominance. We became the 1985 Bears vs the Patriots in Super Bowl XX.

We need to stop thinking we will be a one loss team. Change the mindset. OSU will be a 2 loss team after losing to the 2 undefeated teams that will be in the big ten championship game? Will OSU be left out of the playoff?
