Final OSU thoughts and observations

I was there as well and there definitely were a lot of IU fans. They were loud and definitely had a presence. When the stadium did the O-H-I-O chant, IU fans chanting “IU!” between the Os was definitely noticeable.

That’s awesome. I was in that section
doing the “U” during the OHIO chant but had no clue how it sounded anywhere else.

Anecdotally, I felt like I saw a lot of IU folks walking to the stadium. Because of the color scheme, have no estimate on numbers.

IU fans, nor any visiting fan, can show up “by the thousands.” The visiting team gets the normal allotment of tickets just as if it were a regular season game, which is around 2,500 tickets. Same would hold true if IU hosts a game. It’s going to be a true home game for the higher seed.

I imagine there will be plenty more than the allotment of 2500 for the first time IU has had a good team in forever. I imagine I’ll be getting mine off resale, as I’d guess thousands of others will too. Maybe not 10,000 but significantly more than the allotment.

Did Cignetti's Words Fire Up OSU?

C
One of Cignetti’s assistants noted how his head coach’s “calculated” nature means that whatever he says, he means:

“What I’ve seen is that he’s telling people he had to get this place excited. He knows that he’s said things to get people excited. He did it because he knew he needed to set an expectation. Who would come in and say Ohio State and Michigan sucks, after you say Purdue sucks? Only him. To me, that’s calculated. That’s why we were able to beat Michigan — because he’d already come in on Day One and said, ‘F— these guys!’ You’ve got to think about what that means to a kid who has never beaten Michigan.”

With losses by Colorado, Mississippi, Alabama and BYU, it looks like Indiana will still make the twelve team NCAA football playoffs unless they stumble badly against Purdue. But I hope that Coach Cignetti learned a valuable lesson. You never say that any opponent sucks and you especially don't do that if your opponent is OSU. I have never heard of better bulletin board material than that if you are OSU. The only good thing about yesterday is that OSU now considers IU a worthy opponent but Cignetti needs to eat some humble pie and just shut up.

OSU is a superior team/program. They had a 99.9% chance of beating us regardless. Outcome would’ve been the same even if Cig said something like “I like you guys and I hope we can be friends!”

But Penn State didn't get so overwhelmed. I watched it. They didn't look like much. But they didn't look dominated, just not all that good. But yeah, home helps.

But all anybody can talk about now is Ohio State's athletes outclassing us. Nothing about noise hurting our adjustments, or schemes or special team breakdowns, or the fact that our defense showed they belonged. The narrative is 'men against boys', Indiana sucks'.

Which isn't true. But if the only game of ours you see is so many pass plays of 'snap ball, get snowed under' that's how it looks. Even Cig said pretty much that in the post game. 'They got some guys...' He sounded like we were overwhelmed. Don't blame him. What stuff was he supposed to blow smoke about, he's not that type.

Some commentators are saying that's what they've seen since second half of Michigan and we beat Michigan because their offense sucks. And they're right in that it looks that way.

The one thing they never mention is we don’t have any bad losses. Those SEC teams that got their 3rd loss yesterday all lost to 5-5 teams. It took a top 4 team to give us our first loss and the rest of our games weren’t even close except Michigan

But it’s the reversible jacket fans you’re seeing. They only care about the basketball program. They aren’t showing up for football. IU will have no issue selling out its small allotment of tickets for the game but don’t expect to see 10,000 IU fans inside of Notre Dane stadium just because SouthBend has IU people are in the area. I would bet many of those same fans are attending ND games in full ND gear during the year and then when basketball rolls around, out come the red jackets and dust off the mothballs.

I don’t expect to see 10k up there. And all the ones I knew, or talked to, were IU alumni. I lot of those reversible jacket fans traded in their jackets back when RMK was fired. I’m sure there are still some, but the ones I knew were hardcore IU.

Like the blowout that Penn State had at Minny kind of a blowout? Or the blowout win Oregon had at Wisconsin? Or, the blowout win Georgia had at soon to be 4-8 UK earlier this season? If we are considering margin of victory in all of this, every single team in the CFP is up for scrutiny.

The problem with your statements is the name recognition of PSU, Oregon and Georgia is light years beyond IU.
The same reason that IU has gotten little respect during this season. I think people can't believe their eyes.
That name brand bias isn't right but I believe it to be real. If IU would have beaten or had a close loss to OSU, that could have changed the dynamic but they didn't.
