no bueno strategy:
Ankles are fluid
Debating sports is fun?

They were all in against Duke as well. No sense being in game. I guess depth isn't that great and they wanna Redshirt all the young guys? I don't know, 2 weeks in a row. Absolutely idiotic to be up that much, 2 weeks and still playing. Indiana lost hell of a RB1 doing same crap.

Oh, I agree. I just think that, even if it is a minority of both fan bases, I have seen WAY more arrogance that shouldn't logically exist from the IU crowd. In fact, I think most overconfidence on the Illini side is just an emotional reaction to that, and the vast majority of us always thought this would be a tough game. Meanwhile, I have seen more than a few Indiana fans online tossing around 3-score win predictions like it isn't even a remotely hot take.
Point is, and this plays into your post, both of our fan bases should be excited right now but also pretty damn humble given what we have been through.
Welp, that's it, no point in even playing the game then. We're 4-0 now...bring on the Trojans! See you all at Homecoming!

from the numerous podcasts I have watched he was their 3rd rated RB , although he is noted far behind the 2nd rated RB who is a transfer from twerp-land named Hemby............
The general predictions of the many podcasts boiled down 50/50 pick'em although the spread is now loosiers a 6 point favorite....
I didn't love them playing up big, but at some point you have to play 4 quarters and be ready and tested.
We lost Kaedin Feagin last year in practice.
WE sHOuLdn'T pRaCTice!!
100%. You have to get guys conditioned for a full game. It could have just as easily happened in the other quarters. It was likely his last series. Just bad timing.
Scott being out hurts, no doubt. Time for someone to step up.

I always thought we'd add his name to the athletics admin building, Bielfeldt-Bielema Athletics Center.
Then we'd call it Biel Square(d) for short.
Then again I tend to overthink and really stretch for a bad pun, so there's that.
I had a crazy dream last night! I was swimming in an ocean of orange soda. Turns out it was just a Fanta sea.

I saw a tweet this week that said Mendoza passer rating is like 2nd in against no blitz, and 3rd against zone coverage. Those numbers drop significantly (like 55+ I can’t remember exactly) when blitzed or against man defense.
Hope Henry has seen some of this in the tape
Its what bret said after the game.
We should practice, but should use more bubble wrap for our players.
