this is a 3/4 of the way drunk post, but seriously, we all know this is different. This coach is different. My sober mind says I’d wait till the Maryland game, but f-it, do it now. I’m just blown away with what this guy has done in 4 games.

And by the way, a lot of us had questions about the players that came with him, 3 of our best defensive players were 0 star recruits to JMU, and almost every player he brought with him are crucial parts of this team. What else can you say? I’m seeing stuff I’ve only dreamed about.

#15 in NCAA, 5th in Big Ten

2nd in efficiency for Big 10. 9th in NCAA

Record still projected at 9-3

Will a win over Maryland push them into the Top 25?

This is on Fan Duel.

Maryland is pretty good, I thought it might be closer to -6.5. Huge game for us, looking forward to it.

I like how this team flies to the ball. This team focuses on tackling, and gets a guy down.

Our prior regime focused on stripping the ball and gave up extra YAC and easier first downs, keeping drives alive.

I think the analysts picking IU are prolly just Ohio State fans that want to belittle Michigan. As an older IU fan, I'm just patiently waiting for the eventual letdown. CFP PICKS AFTER WEEK 4.

But for now, im enjoying the ride.

I'm watching the Kansas State/BYU game and BYU just scored on a 90-yard punt return, but the returner almost blew it by releasing the ball at the goal line. He just barely broke the plane of the goal line when the ball was released while celebrating the play. How many times has that happened in football where releasing the ball just short of the goal line negated a big play?

It's 17-17 with the game in Death Valley at LSU.

You can't make this up. LOLOLOL! I think DANC lives in N Carolina and I bet he'll still vote for him.

IU football is great to watch. Guys play hard, are in the right positions, and play as a team. No rah rah clappy clappy bs on the sideline. Cig is all business. I hope IU becomes bowl eligible in October

Is their schedule set or are they going week by week?

A friend of mine had an extra ticket and wanted to know if I might be interested in going to IU v Nebraska. Once he assured me IM Hipp no longer plays and is collecting social security I agreed to go. Guess we will see if the magic lasts until then.

Is it just me (I’m old) or Is Pat Mcafee unbearable? I’m thinking the kids like him but to me he’s just a clown and it’s just not entertaining. I’ve watched gameday for years and enjoy hearing what the other hosts have to say. I’ve recently switched to B1G Tailgate and Fox Big Noon Kickoff.

Interesting insights on Cigs thoughts on Charlotte and his thoughts on efficiency in time management...

Hanging with LSU at LSU.

Sorry. At soccer tournament and have not watched yet. Saw no score and no mention

Indiana football is looking to improve to 4-0 to start this season this weekend, as the Hoosiers play host to the Charlotte 49ers.
