I've been starting this thread for years and, yes, I used to roll it out on Fridays, but this is the NEW Indiana and a new era in IU football. Out with the old, including the old timing of the prediction thread!

Finally, I'm more than a little superstitious when it comes to sports. We haven't lost since I started doing this on Wednesdays. Enough said.

Hoosiers by 17
Tight at first then we get on them and stay on them. 37-20
SI has their SOS in the 80's and us in the 40's this morning So much for "they have played a harder schedule" BS.
Go Hoosiers!

KR has strong performance. OL stout. RB's get their yds. and pass blocking.
Their rookie QB so-so but disappoints. Their ST's let them down again.
Bloomington enjoys celebrating the best HOMECOMING in decades.
IUFB covers the bet again and breaks into the TOP 10.

Nebraska is the best team we will have faced so far, but we are the best team they will have faced, and it's in Bloomington on Homecoming with a sellout crowd! I do not see a letdown or a loss on Saturday. I wouldn't be surprised if we won by 17 or 1 though. Our O will score, but our D hasn't proven to be able to shut teams down. If we hold them to FG's then this is a comfortable win. If they score TD's then it goes to the 4th quarter and we win on a FG. I'm optimistic it will be the former and not the latter, so IU to cover:

Hoosiers 34
Huskers 19

This one is probably gonna be a battle until the end. Turnovers probably play a role.

IU wins 27-24.

IU will score. Turnovers will be the biggest factor. Their special teams aren’t good. Ours is. If we score 4 touchdowns or more we win.

IU 28-21. We cover again.

Across the interwebs, I've seen a number of Nebraska fans say "If we score at least 31, we will win."

I mean, yeah, sure, in most circumstances, if you put up 31 in a football game, there is a strong likelihood that you'll win.

Only one problem: when you're playing a team that's dropping 48 a game on their opponents, 31 ain't gonna get it done.

But sure, I'll humor the 31 point crowd.... IU 48, Neb 31, pulling away in the 2nd half like we have all year.
