Fine, we’ll be David

I keep hearing this but don’t believe it. The seats aren’t exactly sold out and the price is coming back down from $4100 to $3800. The bigger concern, are the wealthy fans that attend going to actually yell. I attended the cotton bowl and a number of Miami fans didn’t yell when we were on D.

I’d expect closer to 50/50
 
Forgive me, I am older than most of you, the year I graduated from this U, 1983, we were scheduled to play Nebraska in the Orange Bowl.

That Nebraska team was thought to be the greatest team in college football history (at that time).

While you may be too young to remember this, I know you know the outcome and what was born from that VICTORY.

10 penalties and 4 DROPPED interceptions on Thursday. Mario has plenty to work on (which is GOOD) these 10 days.

I have no doubt this team will be ready.

Suggest you take the points.

Exactly. Throw out that 2002 OSU comparison. 1983 Miami is the one.

Respectfully, no we are not. That Canes team had 32 players drafted, 17 in the first round, 2 future NFL Hall of Famers with a couple more on the way. Indiana's roster has nowhere near that type of talent.

And we are definitely not David vs Goliath, lol.
 
2 questions that I have:

1. How many NFL draft picks are on their two deep and what round projections compared to us?

2. How many six or seven year super seniors on their two deep compared to us?

Obviously they are a very good team that has mostly blown teams out all year. That said, I think alabama is a mediocre team at best, oregon completely self destructed, so that game is hard to judge, they should have lost to a mediocre penn state team (but they didn't, where we lost twice) and we looked better against an extremely talented OSU team.

But they should be the favorites and Miami needs no penalties and no dumb self destruction.

Media loved to hype up those Nebraska, Oklahoma and Notre Dame teams. Indiana will follow in a long tradition of false giants.

Are you saying we are 1983 Nebraska? They were they favorites. Indiana sure as **** isn't 1983 Nebraska and I think we are given a better shot in this game then we were in 1983. We are a touchdown dog. The media believes Indiana is unstoppable and so far that is true. To me this is more like 2002 or 1992 Miami where we were similar favorites and unbeatable (undefeated both years) and we lost.
