GASabresIUFan Posted September 21 Posted September 21 As many of you know I'm a UGA fan, but I'm also an IU Alum and am really impressed with Curt Cignetti and the job he's done with the Hoosiers. I was a student during the good Bill Mallory years, but Cignetti has done what Mallory could never do and make IU competitive with the top teams in the BIg 10. Today's beatdown of No. 9 Illinois was as impressive a win by a Hoosier team that I can remember. The 63 points was the most a Big 10 team has ever scored over a top 10 ranked squad. Now go beat Iowa on the road. Quote
GASabresIUFan Posted September 21 Author Posted September 21 Wanted to mention that Herbstreit, Howard and Saban all picked Ill to win. Said they'd out physical the Hoosiers. How could Saban pick against his old asst Cignetti? Quote

Stop ranking teams before like week 5 Not taking anything away from IU No rankings until week 5 makes a lot of sense. Preseason rankings set narratives that are hard to rewrite with results. But yeah, Hoo, Hoo, Hoo, Hoosiers! (I went to grad school at IU and lived in Bloomington from 1998 until 2007). Quote
