I'm serious...

If Cignetti is smart (and I think he is), he'll do whatever it takes to get Zander Diamont, Mike Dumas, Chris Dyer, and whoever else might be available who's played at a high level in this game (maybe Trent Green) to come in on Thursday or Friday to speak the TEAM about what The Bucket really means...

Beat p u !

Yes, this is a tradition that we would prefer all the newcomers to appreciate…
To avoid a distraction to the weekly prep. routine, I think a post game talk may be better.
Return to normalcy seems the watchword after Saturday’s trip to Columbus.

Naw... This is the one time where you add something verbal to your game prep... It's "The Bucket"... Someone needs to fill this Team and this Staff in to what that means (and I know we already have a couple of guys on staff who do know, just need to get the rest up to speed)...

I follow Zander on X...he's IUFB 100%...
I'm not sure I've seen a kid hit harder than Mike Dumas.

Those are Hoosier legends that we need to elevate and appreciate for sure...
 
I'd like to think the team is jacked just on this alone.
You need to win by 28 or so.
Or you could be jumped in the CPF..
CFP trumps everything..imo

Probably more than double that...

I don't trust the sports powers that be to not go out of their way to try to find a way to screw us...

Given the chance, we need go for 108 (kicking a 55 yard FG as time expires)...

I'm serious as a heart attack...

Agreed. No Indiana University football player since 1967 has competed in an IU game that had anywhere near the importance of tomorrow’s game. We are playing for inclusion in a 12-team tournament that will determine the national champion.

I love the history and tradition of the Bucket, regional bragging rights, etc., but that’s all secondary tomorrow.

I have a sneaky suspicion that Coach Cig feels the same way you do and his team will play accordingly.

Cut the Punt Team out of the equation by going for it at nearly every opportunity from our own 40 on in... That's one way to solve that potential issue...
