This will be his 3rd weekend in a row at IU. 4th in the last 5 weeks. Supposedly, their all making their commitments known this weekend. We shall see.

You seem to be the only IU fan excited about football. They couldnt even pack half the stands when the #8 team came to town. I dont think bball schools like IU will after be a football contender since they have next to zero fan and community support.

IU will never be a football school, but it is exciting they are starting to pull some of the top Indiana talent. They've never had a class like this before and right now, Wilson has them at least competing with the top tier B1G teams on the field. Long way to go, but getting 6-7 wins a season in the future would still be huge for IU. It will never pass basketball, but it could become respectful. Especially with Hopeless up at Purdue running that program into the ground.

Can Purdue play more conservative? A first down and game would have been over now ave to punt.

Northwesterns new helmets are pretty sweet.

 

Huge break on that punt there.

 

Muff party in Evanston. 3 Muffs in a little over a quarter.

WTB: Offensive Coordinator with a pulse, must be able to override s***ty calls by the head coach. Apply within.

Quite the 4th quarter collapse by NW. And that was a home game for Nebraska, the NW fans were way outnumbered

Ya that one hurt a little, they would have probably got back in the top 25 with that win.

 

Ugly game for both teams.

Two weeks ago the national media was full of "Steve Spurrier created a national title contender at S. Carolina" Oops.

 

Northwestern with another blown 4th quarter lead, bummer. This is the type of year they can make their mark in the B1G. Loved the new helmets.

Northwestern just can't play in the 4th quarter this year. Very f'n frustrating.

 

Sweet helmets though.

Collin Klein's having quite the night. He actually reminds me a ton of Tebow when he was at Florida.

I thought Geno Smith has the Heisman wrapped up?

 

AJ McCarron deserves to be in the discussion with his 16-0 TD/INT numbers so far.

His defense is too good, he doesn't have to make any plays. Right now Klein has to be the front runner. What a fluke West Virginia was.

AJ McCarrons mom is a milf. I know this because if busted coverage

Phew, close one in South Bend. I guess Tommy Rees is better in the 4th quarter than the first 3. Coach Kelly said that Golson will be starting next week vs. Oklahoma. Well f*** ME then, defense better be ready to hold the Sooners to under 10.

Yes, yes she is.

I know Beckman has been nothing short of a disaster this season, but can anyone explain to me why it was so outrageous that he used dip on the sideline?

Against NCAA rules.

Ah, well that makes sense. I thought it was more of a moral high ground issue

I had been thinking all year that Rees gives ND a better chance to win, but after the BYU game, I'm not so sure. The O-line seems to do better at run blocking than pass blocking, and Rees missed several reads/throws to the point that I no longer think his passing advantage outweighs Golson's running advantage.

 

Either way, the defense is going to need to bring it all Saturday against Oklahoma because even against a Big 12 defense, I don't see the Irish putting up a ton of points.

 

Besides, I don't see Kansas State or Alabama/Florida losing a game, so it would be less frustrating to go 11-1 or 10-2 and deliver a beatdown to Louisville in the Fiesta Bowl than to go 12-0 and have to whine about not getting into the title game.

I guess the cupbard wasnt so bare in Gainesville huh?

Still bare on the offensive side of the ball. No one ever argued that there wasnt any talent on defense.

 

 

The offense is below average at best at Florida. Course, you give any team 21 points in the first half, they should be able to win. 3 weeks in a row that Florida hasn't even thrown for 100 yards, and still won.

It's just very odd. All the talk going into the year was how they don't have a quarterback, might have to split time, etc...then they are somehow #2 towards the end of October. Never would have thought that could happen.

Oh hey, Indiana might actually win a Big Ten football game this weekend!
