After the game…..

….as the teams were standing on the field talking, I saw about 7-8 IU players go over to talk with Washington’s #3. They were all shaking hands and in an extended conversation with him for several minutes. The IU guys were all players from last year’s roster. It was then that I realized that #3 was Jordan Shaw from the IU team last season. I had completely forgotten that he ended up at Washington and is starting there.

FBS current team stats

Forget the AP poll. Two-thirds of the way through the season, here's where IU ranks nationally in some key categories:

  • Scoring Offense: #2
  • Total Offense: #6
  • 3rd down conversion pct: #3
  • Red zone offense: #14
  • Rushing Defense: #4
  • Total Defense: #5
  • Scoring Defense: #7
This is an exceptionally good team, on both sides of the ball.

MSU is a huge game! We need to beat them and then we can look forward to the first CFP rankings on November 5.

Go Hoosiers!

Poll: Fascist vs Progressive

Would you vote for a fascist or progressive for POTUS?

  • Fascist

    Votes: 6 23.1%
  • Progressive

    Votes: 20 76.9%

This should be a fun one. I don't know if Trump and Co are wannabe fascists and I don't believe Harris is a total progressive. Let's say one candidate is a true fascist and the other is a true progressive. Who would you vote for if that were the case in this year's presidential election?

I'm not giving a third response option of Neither, Write-in, or I'd sit this one out because I believe 95% would still vote for one or the other.

Today’s game has meaning.

If you listened to Woodson this offseason, he is well aware that he face planted last year. Has mentioned how important getting off to a fast start is multiple times. He wants to win this game very badly. This is not an exhibition game to him.

I do not think he is going to be tinkering with lineups or running different “stuff”. Frankly, he is who he is and there is not gonna be much deviation from his plan.

One thing I have learned from Woodson, is that he does not change it up much. Goes with what he thinks gives him the best shot to win and is pretty set on that. We either are gonna show we can play today or it might be an oh shit moment.

Let’s see what ya got woody. There ain’t no next year. The train is locked and loaded let’s see if we are packing that bitch this year. All aboard!!!

Cooper's Touchdown/ Interaction With Cignetti

I don't know if I saw something that wasn't there or missed something leading up to it. When Cooper came off the field after the Touchdown, it appeared that Cignetti went right to Him and discussed something with Him. I won't say He got in his face, but Cignetti appeared to be animated and not particularly pleased. I didn't see anything in the Play that obviously led to this - showing up an opponent, hot dogging, or anything fundamentally wrong. Wondered if anyone else noticed this and had an idea of what the discussion could have been about.

IU unchanged in both polls at #13 (links).
