I root for Nebraska, so I’ll take the “your team” comment as you generally speaking
IU fans generally feel more passionate about tailgating than attending the games. Yes agree with 6-0 team fans should be showing more support
NU-Indiana will be the Big noon game 10-7 PC Notes

Indiana has destroyed everyone they've played. I'm not saying they are unbeatable but their closest game is a 14 pt win over Maryland.
FIU (2-3)
W. Illinois (2-3)
UCLA (1-4)
Charlotte (3-3)
Maryland (3-2)
Northwestern (2-3)
So their crowning achievement is a 14 pt victory over 3-2 Maryland.
Haha!
The only way it is even close to "packed" is if 15k Husker fans show up.
This would be a road game that I would like to go, the fans are nice, they are not going to be lame, they know they suck at FB so they are just there to have fun.
Their tailgating and bar scene seem about as laidback and chill as it could be.
I have not been to Bloomington yet but pregame is totally more tailgating, right? Not so much the bar scene?
Something interesting about Nebraska's run game:
Last season they finished the year with a top 25 rushing offense, but only 16 rushing TDs.
This season they are on pace for 22 to 24 rushing TDs.

Love this stat. The Frost years and last year were so painful. Take care of the damn ball. Take the ball away. Win the game. Dylan has been so important in making the right decisions and not turning the ball over.
QB run game is also ZERO this year. Last year, I believe it was the majority? or at least a much bigger factor
Yeah def more tailgating, there are large fields across from the stadium and assembly hall. If you get a chance I would encourage everyone to go to a game, Bloomington in a true college town and has a great campus.
With all that said I hope Nebraska wins by 21+. #GBR

Maryland beat Villanova, UConn, and Virginia. Their remaining schedule will make it very difficult to achieve bowl eligibility. They might be a tad better than NW but it's close. The rest of their games they will be underdogs.
Bottom line is Indiana scored a lot of points but they have played the easiest possible schedule in the Big 10 to get to 6-0.
History also shows that when great offenses go up against great defenses, the defense tends to win. When the statistically incredible OU team of 2008 played the best defense it faced all year by far in Florida in the championship they scored 14 points.
If NU can play a complete game of 4 quarters I like our chances. Hopefully that point spread provides some extra motivation.
I have not looked at stats but isn't IU similar to CU? Just with a worse QB and worse WR's?
I believe Kurtis Rourke is a good QB. Not close to the draft projections of Sanders. Has he faced real pressure this year? No. There is a huge difference between standing in a clean pocket all game and picking apart the opposition versus having to scramble.
Their WR room is also not the level of CU's, which includes Travis Hunter who could be a first round pick as a receiver. I don't think any team on our schedule is as talented at receiver except Ohio State. Actually Sanders is a vastly better passer than Will Howard.
Don’t want to put too much weight on just one game but the whole Rhule 3 yr rebuild narrative is going to be a tough pill to swallow if Indiana who only won a single conf game last yr beats us to go 7-0 with a first year coach whose head coaching resume reads IUP-ELON-James Madison
I agree.
The "rebuild" thing is what a lot of coaches push so that they can get more time. Especially now with the transfer portal it is really hard to pretend that you need 3 years to get good ESPECIALLY if in year 1-2 you are playing a bunch of dudes that are 23 years old.
Years ago when a new HS opened up out by me, this guy I was coaching with who was a fantastic HC and is no retired said that if he took that job, he would pretty much start all 9th and 10th graders on varsity, let them take their lumps and in 3 years, they would beat the shit out of teams. Makes a lot of sense.
NU is playing dudes that should have been gone already. Nash, Robinson, Bullock and so one. Even on the OL you got some old dudes.
