Ole Miss

It is a concern.

Our easy schedule was not say, Colorado's, which is somehow ranked 12th to our 70ish.
Colorado lost 28-10 to Nebraska. We'd be 11-0 if we played their schedule. Yet their weak conference is rated way higher than us playing last years title teams, Michigan, Washington. And the Nebraska team that whipped them?

Could say the same about many big least and acc teams. Boise too, but they didn't lose badly to Oregon. Plus they are a 'name' lol.

Ole Miss

Georgia dropped from 3rd to out with a much more competitive loss at Ole Miss. My worry is we’re gonna similarly drop like a rock, and the Purdue game will not help us in anyway. A loss at OSU in and of itself is not any cause for concern. How we looked, now combined with how we looked against Michigan…with regards to our CFP outlook…is a huge cause for concern.
I’m waiting to see the revised odds for us to make the playoff. We do have the 12th best odds to win the title right now, with a decent gap to 13th.

It’s gonna be close. Total was very extremely frustrating.

Well it was nice while it lasted.

Box score says minus 23 on Evans, minus 33 on sacks of Rourke. At one point I saw minus 44 on Rourke.

Cig has said since last winter Rourke throws it away so you don't get way behind... With untouched rushers he didn't even have time for that.

I kept wishing we'd run more. But they make the big bucks for a reason. But it just went south.

Ole Miss

No way a one loss Indiana is left out for a three loss team. Worried more about Clemson and the ACC getting two teams.

We looked bad. At a very tough place to play against the number one or two seed, if they drill Michigan and Oregon.

Cig says he thinks it's obvious whether we deserve to be in our not. In his presser. What did he mean?

America’s favorite coach and team….

….media loves them. They got their ass beat and commentators, saying they “pass the eye test” and should be highly considered in the field of 12. Lost to Nebraska, Kansas St and Kansas.

Deion has a bunch of showboats that guys like Stephen A. Smith and Brian Jones love. Wonder why?

For a moment I thought maybe that might be the better option in this game. Frankly, I just think if we had had a veteran duel threat QB, instead of Rourke, that would make us less vulnerable on offense. OSU and Michigan made us look one dimensional and the defense won the Michigan game and would’ve given us a punchers chance in this one if our special teams hadn’t made mistakes. Right now we have a playoff level defense, but not offense.
How ‘bout just running the ball more, even down 21-7? When IU ran the ball, they at least weren’t losing big chunks of yards like on sacks of KR, giving us no chance. Getting 3-5 yards per carry > negative sack yards. Between Rourke’s sack yards and Evans’ minus 20 or so, that had to be at least minus 50, right?
