Tuttle is a great backup but he is not a difference maker. Penix can make big plays with his arm…gotta get him on track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fiveoutofsix Posted September 12, 2021 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2021 How do things work? Iowa State looses at home to Iowa and they move down to 14. Indiana looses on the road to Iowa and they can't sniff the rankings. Is there something I am missing? Is it my Hoosier glasses? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though Iowa was in control yesterday, State at least kept the score respectable. IU was never in the game v the Hawkeyes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

btownqb Posted September 13, 2021 Report Share Posted September 13, 2021 Iowa St gotta be lower than 14 though, I feel. I'll check more into it tomorrow. I mean.. UNI took them to the brink and they were fairly handled yesterday. I'm not saying unranked, 14 seems high though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Hawkeyes manhandled them on both sides of the ball. With a decent qb, Iowa scores 50. Coupled with the struggle against UNI, it just goes to show polls aren't really about the best teams.

The influence they have is tough to undue through good play. ESPN wields way to much power in shaping thought on things that should be decided on the field. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OLDIUFAN Posted September 23, 2021 Report Share Posted September 23, 2021 I don’t think we deserve to be ranked! We lose embarrassingly bad to Iowa. Beat a Idaho team that who cares, then give a game to Cincy away. Our offense couldn’t score 3 times inside the 10. What top twenty five team does that. I would think the big question is how long do we stay with Penix! I would think the team is losing faith in him! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For being a “flashy” kind of athlete, he’s usually the first to defer credit when it’s given. And despite his struggles, it doesn’t look like he’s lost his confidence. If the team hasn’t lost confidence in him, that says a lot about him. Despite him not being at his best, he’s still the guy they want to follow into battle.

There was a video IU put out a few weeks ago. As players were coming off the field after practice, someone was asking them who they'd like to be stranded with on a desert island. One of the guys said they'd like to be stuck with Penix because they knew everybody would try to find him. They respect him, and know how important he is to IU football. Even though he's struggled a ton, I think they're still all behind him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

btownqb Posted September 27, 2021 Report Share Posted September 27, 2021 Campbell is 38/38 on XP in his career. 19/20 FGs... which I think was a 44/45 yarder. Not exactly a chip shot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now how would CBS bill those early season games without some fake generic rankings lol. I mean people can't be trusted to tune in unless they see a number next to a name.

Seeking6 Posted October 1, 2021 Report Share Posted October 1, 2021 Should be an interesting day in South Florida. My gut says Manny will be gone by end of the day. Ever since lighting up Notre Dame in 2017 the program has been .500....only reason Manny hasn't been let go before is that Florida St program is even worse. What a shame. 2 dominant programs for decades are in shambles because the Administration/AD/Coaches aren't on same page. We've experienced the same too. Glad IU is hooked up across the board in all sports right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
