Indiana defense is very underrated. They have shut down Ohio State, Alabama, and Oregon the last 3 games.

Watching on the ESPN 4K channel which doesn’t show the commercials. Instead they go to this shot and we’re getting to see lots of PDA from the couple on the right in timeouts. Anybody know them?

Not going to be able to watch but it wouldn’t surprise me if I wake up in the morning and see that the final is 3-0 IU

 

[rolltide_21]

Also, I’m pulling for IU just to stick it to ND they’re no longer the alpha program in their state

 

[AlistarWills]

Why do they feel the need to re-sod these fields before a big game? Theres no way that is attached well if you can still see the seams in the rolls.

interesting play calling behind the sticks by IU....

 

[Bamabuzzard]

#99 for Miami is a beast. He's eating some people's lunch

 

[Tide&True]

TOP definitely in IU’s favor

 

[Bazza]

Good game so far!

Miami was ranked #1 in QB sacks this year.

Vs the Heisman winner tonight is making some good football watching!

 

[bamadwain]

Would love to have Taylor as our d-line coach, but no way he leaves Miami

I wish they could both lose, but dislike the Candy Canes more

There’s a lot to dislike about them, no doubt. But I’ve never been able to work up much of a hatred for them. Probably because they were never much of a threat to us during their heyday, because we were out of the picture during that time. When we did get back into the hunt, we dismantled them pretty good.

Also, during the eighties they whipped some of the other teams I hated, like OU and Notre Dame.

How does Black reach top speed in TWO strides like that??!!!

The average age of their starters is something like 23 years old...they should be VERY experienced by now!

one of the radio stations here in Atlanta had an Indiana media guy on and he said he wasn't surprised Indiana blew out Alabama and Oregon and that they would do it again tonight.

I just saw that it is 3-0 in the 2nd quarter.

 

[rtr90]

becker looks so unathletic but man he breaks so many tackles

 

[bama_fan01]

UM's defense is arguing among themselves...not a good sign.

Even their media folks are arrogant.

I was going to say it it a thing of beauty to watch a RB hit the line and explode forward.

Yes. He looks like he should be in the band.

Yeah, I know who youre talking about. He predicted they would blow us out. He said when you watch the tape we make a lot of mistakes and are undisciplined.
