Understood, but I think just about every college football fan realizes that the advent of even having a 16 game schedule (since 1900) is a recent invention.

It surely is in the eye of the beholder, but at minimum it's 1-3 games better than the others. I find it impressive none the less, considering the last 4 opponents. Nobody else finished with fewer than 2 losses. 17-0 will be on the table shortly, as soon as next year.

Dakich was not on the 32-0 team.

Cignetti is the first coach ever to lead a team to a 16-0 season.

Indiana became the first Big 10 Team to win a National Championship other than Ohio State or Michigan since 1966 when Michigan State claimed a share: https://www.ncaa.com/news/football/article/college-football-national-championship-history

The Eagles fired Andy Reid and their franchise eventually found their way to a Super Bowl Trophy before he did. Also, it worked for Tampa Bay when they fired Tony Dungy, as was mentioned on yesterday's Dan Patrick Show.

Because it's entertaining and if one wins 52.5% of the time (against a regular 10% vig) it's at least break even. Betting outside one's means, is not smart.

Amazing how many years Nebraska was not eligible for Bowls with that slate.

The 13th month of 2025.

I think you mean 2024. In 2023 doubt Indiana was the favorite in 11 games on their way to a 3-9 overall record, 1-8 in the Big 10. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2023_Indiana_Hoosiers_football_team

Nope. No recollection whatsoever. Looking at Wiki, it was the season opener (season delayed and truncated due to COVID) so zero chance the Hoosiers were on my radar. Game was on October 24, I am sure I was golfing that day before the Gophers opened up against Michigan. First Big 10 game I was...

Nailed it.

I have watched the Hoosiers play 7 games in the Cignetti Era. That brings the total number of times I have watched Indiana football ever (not counting games against Minnesota) to roughly 7 games.

Nailed it. It did look and sound like 60/40, but in favor of Indiana, especially upper deck.

Reusse must be a mutual Ope3 fan as he used my 3 Playoff Victories under the Wilf Ownership tenure. https://www.startribune.com/minnesota-vikings-giants-2021-nfc-title-game-super-bowl-patrick-reusse-column/601564703

The only thing that gives me pause is the Rams Defense has treated Darnold like a rag doll multiple times over the past 2 seasons.

The Cubs resigned former Randolph Rocket/Twin to a 1 Year $4.5M contract a few weeks ago. https://cubbiescrib.com/cubs-free-agency-update-caleb-thielbar-contract-details-bullpen-chris-martin-01kcpg789y0z In another life I just want to be born left-handed and able to throw a 90ish MPH fastball.

I think Stroud believes his team is wearing the Blue jerseys.

Twins Alert on Today's Grid. New Players are the Vanimal and Cecil Travis a Senator who ranks in the franchise Top 24 WAR. Current Blue Jay, Daulton Varsho also is a newcomer.

He will at least have a full week of preparation time, actually an extra day.
