That clown coach and his mouth deserves all of the smoke right now. Good coach, but he will learn when to stfu on such a stage.
Maybe I'm old. This was not the start of our downfall. More like the mid-downfall plateau. The Downfall began in November 2001.
Wrong, we still played for the national championship in which no one in the country was beating Miami in a championship game.
We’ve had numerous seasons like what Indiana just had go back to the Iowa board
What year do we finally see an end to the Covid kids and their extra year of eligibility? Man it’s getting tiresome
You can always spot when the idiots out wondering around like this one..
No one is blaming Eichorst for the current issues stop lying.
Never. It lead to 5 and 6 years, now it’s continued to 7. And with the lawsuit the Vandy QB has it may lead to unlimited years.
I hope he's a one hit wonder and has nothing but losing seasons from here on out.
I was in Boulder. The writing was on the wall. The Buffs could've put up 80 that night on our defense. We made that NC game by beating out the buffs in a flawed BCS system by two hundredths of a point. The Canes players, in interviews, all relate that the 1st half of the NC game was the worst half of football they played all year. They had an off night and still managed 37. I agree that no CFB team was beating Miami in '01. However, I'd by that point lived through nearly 4 consecutive NC's and had been attending games in person since '99. Trouble was clearly on the horizon. More folks than not from my demographic (45+) have a similar view. On the other hand, younger folks who did not have to see the full dive into the dumpster fire, in my view, are lucky to have been able to skip that.
we backed into an undeserved nc game and got cornholled
Every one had their shot to play in it and lost in their conference championship game..
other than Miami that year not any true powerhouses and certainly not the huskers
Florida lost to Tennessee
Tennessee lost to LSU
texass lost to Colorado and Colorado lost 2 games before the bowl game.
Oregon didn’t have any CCG lost to 9-3 Stanford in October.
Add that Oklahoma lost to Okie State by one point in a huge rivalry upset. Ten things had to go perfectly for the Huskers to get rolled by Miami, and all of those things fell right into place.
Imagine if the SEC played 9 conference games and half their teams had 1 more loss
I would think so but who knows. I hope so!
I am totally over it, they NCAA (no shock) did it all wrong. The Covid Year should have been for seniors only and that is it.
Dude won 8 games in the Big 10.
I don't give a shit who his team played.
That is more than any team we have ever fielded since being a member of this conference.
Sure, the guy is an asshat. Wish we were asshats this year.

And you want to reward losing to Oklahoma by 20 and to Vanderbilt.
If they would have won the games they were supposed to, heck if they had only lost 1 of those games, Alabama would have been in.
Why? Every player on the roster had the exact same circumstance. If the season was a loss for one it was a loss for all.
Unless you went all the way down to 4th year players who hadn’t used a redshirt season.
This season for Indiana is similar to the 2016 season for Nebraska, if replace Ohio St with Rutgers. Beat the average to bad and lose handily to the good teams.
I have never before and probably never will again, cheered for ND but I did this game. I didn't like Indiana before this asshat came aboard.
Horse ****. Oregon, Penn State, and Ohio State are all good teams. Indiana kind of snuck in, but all they did was take care of business during the year. It’s not like Notre Dame and blew them out.
He could’ve been humble and gracious the whole year, but he didn’t, and the Internet remembers
I thought Ole Miss had more of a case than Bama. But bama had more of a case than IU or SMU.
I’m just stating the obvious. Teams won’t play tough non conference games anymore if this current format sticks. No point in them
An the team being hammered nationally because there coach is a gasbag who loves to run his mouth at 63. Couldn’t have happened to a better coach.
Indiana deserved to be in, and it wasn’t even a close call. Best season ever, 11-1 in a P2 conference. Did they luck out by avoiding the real powers except for OSU? Yes. But there are 12 teams in the playoff. 12 teams! Any 11-1 team in any of the P4 conferences deserves a seat in a 12-team tournament, even more so an 11-1 P2 team.
Seems to me that the handwringing and arguing are over the last team or two into the playoff, not the ones that wind up the top seeds. The Number 13 team that gets left outside the building looking in is always going to complain about not getting in. It's just the nature of the beast. If there was a 16 team playoff, Number 17 would piss and moan about being left out.
Would Alabama or Ole Miss have fared any better in the first round? Who knows? Other than conference bragging rights and of course money, it seems unlikely to me that any of Bama, Ole Miss, or Indiana could string together the number of wins necessary win the championship in any event.
What the first round showed me is that the round of 8 will have the top 6 teams. The team that gets through this tournament will be a true champion.
We were blowing out B10 teams to the tune of 40 to 17 on average like Indiana this year?
Damn. Maybe that magical 2016 team under Riley was much better than I thought.
At some point you should be punished for taking teams off the schedule and playing nobody. IU isn’t a top 12 team.
An 11-1 team in a P2 conference should always get into a 12 team field. Always. Without exception.
Indiana is not at fault for their conference schedule. That Michigan wasn’t the same this year. That Washington wasn’t the same this year. That Nebraska wasn’t good.
They removed Louisville from their non conference slate.
And they were embarrassed the only time they played a team who was playoff worthy
Most times I agree with you. 11-1 is damn good. And for them it was damn good. But they are not a top 12 team. They are the benefactor of a weak schedule.
The problem with “11-1” gets you in will show when everyone schedules Evansville Johnson as their premier non conference game.
Good victories and SoS mean something. Paying Louisville to cancel your game so you can beat up on a bad schedule is petty and weak.
