    Assuming we would have lost to OSU last year, we would have needed to go 8-0 against the rest of Indianas schedule to do that. Given that we actually lost to the Michigan team that Indiana beat, and we lost to a 4-5 Rutgers team, im not sold that we would have gone 8-1 against that schedule.

    I hope we pull it out. Looking at the total yardage, if we do, we stole one

    So, for the record, im now hearing the argument that Indiana Hoosiers football as at a structural advantage over us that makes us unfairly stuck on a lower tier?

    ***OFFICIAL PURDUE AT MINNESOTA HOMECOMING IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    I cant get over that, in a close game, we left four potential points on the field because our coach is too stupid to know how a clock works. I watch a lot of football, I can't remember ever seeing a team run out of time when they got the ball with that much time and three timeouts.

    We had 3 timeouts and almost two minutes, and have to settle for a field goal on second down. That is horrible clock management. How can a big ten team possibly be that incompetent at the two minute drill? Whatever positives PJ has, this kind of in game management is a horrendous liability for...

    This is the worst clock management in history. Even if we get the first down, what do we do?

    If we run out of time and have to kick when we started the drive with almost two minutes and 3 timeouts, thats unforgivable.

    That offensive possession was almost good enough to let us punt the ball to their half of the field!

    Serious question: does indiana have so many structural advantages over us that they are an unreasonable barometer of success?

    Felt like the right balance of recognizing the obvious (you need to do something creative because you are too outmanned to call a conventional play that requires you to win a battle straight up on the goal line) but also not desperate and gimmicky (like trying to have the right guard throw a...

    Absolutely loved that play design by Bielema on fourth and goal.

    Before every lines up to talk about the refs being on OSU's side, its worth noting on that third down completion that came back, it sure looked like the Illinois defender was grabbing the OSU receiver's arm before the ball arrived and it went uncalled.

    Playing like you dont give a damn can be a powerful thing, especially if you are an underdog.

    Mason says it's "mind boggling" why Eslinger, Spaeth and TC don't have their jerseys retired at The U

    Im surprised coach Prime isn't lobbying to have the entire NCAA retire his son's number, like the NHL did with 99 for Gretzky.

    Fleck after watching OSU film: "There's so much good in that film. It gets covered up by the score, but there's a lot of good to pull from that game."

    I went to the team stats for the game to check under the score. Apparently, I also have to check under total yards, passing yards, rushing yards, yards per play, first downs, and third down efficiency.

    I dont know what part you're struggling with. Hopefully we can do a better job trying to p Purdue's sub zone in the back end than we did with OSU.

    Week 7 AP Poll - Texas and Penn State OUT

    Its tough doing rankings this early in the season with teams who are undefeated against a soft schedule. Maybe indiana will lose and fall. But no one would bat an eye if Georgia, Alabama, or OSU were ranked 7 at this point with Indianas schedule to date. If nothing else, I think indiana should...

    Fleck: “I’m proud of our players fight. We didn’t turn the ball over which is really positive for us…We have a really good football team though.”

    Should have been 42-3 if not worse? 42-3 was worse than Ohio, Washington, and Texas (who may be nowhere near as good as advertised) played them. Only grambling state had a worse showing than us. Being upset that we lost is unreasonable. Being upset that we looked as bad as we did is fair.

    Killing a drive that is moving well against a team we have the talent to match up straight up with is fundamentally different than pulling out the stops against a team that is light years ahead of you when you need to do something to try something unconventional to tilt the field in your favor...
