TJ is ok! He wasn’t ever daunted! Like CCC said, he just needs to learn and be better by experience! This team has had its 1st real test of adversity early on and passed the test! I got to say that our defense is legit though! I hope Fisher is ok, but any other IU defense from years past would have folded in these types of tough situations! Good win today, but beat MSU, and the talk of greatness can continue!
Going in at 28-7 last week was a little different look than today.
Agree. I also thought the offense controlled the last drive and did not let Washington O back on the field. That was a great offense drive.
I agree, thought the DB made contact early on the play.
IU’s O line was the difference. We had a ground game in the second half and it allowed us to score and take valuable minutes off the clock. Defense played very good the entire game.
TJ just kind of. managed the game and handed off. He’s not anywhere close to Rourke and it’s obvious, and everyone knows it. No big deal. He doesn’t go through the progressions like Rourke because of his experience level. Easily the best environment at The Rock in my lifetime with the towels and noise level. I told my son today that at some places, this is the environment every Saturday at their venue.
Lots of difference makers on this outfit. But my favorite operative is Bostad. The difference in OL results since he took over is off the chart. Wasn't 1 iota surprised when Cignetti kept him. OL can't block, offense don't execute much. 2+2!
Right, not addition but multiplication, as Coach Cig says. I bet he loves Coach Bostad!
We had only 1 penalty for 5 yds.
