IU looking really good again…

[IronChefBBQ]

Don’t think for a second that they’re not going to run the score up if they can on us…

Yep

 

[Bank Shot Podcast]

We deserve it every now and then after the decades upon decades of teams doing it to us.

 

[RossMackey]

Yep

That’s why it’s a rivalry.

We want to emasculate them at every opportunity, and I gotta believe they aspire to do the same to Purdue.

They are no ND, but I have little doubt they saw today's score and a drooling (more than usual) at the thought of playing us.

They have one of the easiest schedules there is and we sure aren't going to make it any harder.

They did whatever they wanted vs a better defensive team than us in UCLA…

Based on what, and that’s a broad statement? Our pass coverage actually looked ok with the exception of a couple busted plays and missed tackles. Our run defense was abysmal.

IU was favored to win this game and score a lot and they did but it was the passing game that looked very very good and it opened up the run game. It’s hard to gauge our defense. On the first 4 drives we actually looked ok except made some mental errors and they just ran over us. This indiana team is the polar opposite of the ND team we faced today that manhandled us. We matchup better against them.

Hey, why did I joke for years that IU should sign a lifetime contract for Allen. I guess that joke now unfortunately falls back to us with our coach.

Some will say they deserve it but iu has an easy big ten schedule this year to go with their 3 cupcakes. Instead of usc and Oregon they got UCLA and Washington. Swapped out Penn state for northwestern. They could easily go 9-3. Put final game could br our redemption game.

They aren't that good and you are correct. Their schedule is an absolute joke. They will win some games because of that soft schedule, but they will also get beat down. Their fan base is god awful.

8 home games. Big year for geese droppings.

Yet many of our fans want to schedule the same way they do.

When you have 9 B1G games every year, and your goal is to build a winning program, it's simple pragmatism to schedule 3 winnable non-conf games. The B1G is going to test you one way or the other. There's no hiding at the end of the day.

Michigan won the national title a year after playing a weak non-conf schedule and it didn't hurt them in terms of making the playoff.
