MEGA Week 4 Games Thread ‘26

[kmoj9kmo]

Think that’s the great thing about this year so far, of the top 7 contenders we already lost 1 in Oregon and the other 6 really haven’t done much to separate themselves. Parity really is at an all time high

Don't know if it was a dumb playcall or a dumb QB scrambling around within FG range... looked terrible

I don’t care what the play call is, throw the ******* ball away.

 

[JamesQuall]

Flawed like everyone. They are solid though. Losing their RB might be a big one.

Them losing Richards is big. Now they’re down 2 of their starting RBs.

I hope they lose 3-4 games and crash back to earth.

CIS hoosiers with a decent showing tonight... y'all travel well

 

[skyman]

Will Indiana be bludgeoned all week about their slow half of offense?

Their fans have been complaining all season.. We dont realize it because they play cupcakes schedule until late Oct. but I mentioned in "all top 10 fans are complaining" thread

Cignetti looked shook. If Richards is out long term they are screwed. That OL isn’t built to pass pro 35x a game.

That was the one guy their fans felt like they could not lose for any stretch because Khobie Martin was already hurt til midseason.. He was backup last year who had 500+ yards.. They would be in trouble but they play no one for half the year and their defense is still very good and rarely challenged.

They have too much talent to end up with 4 losses

I think they lose to Ohio State at home and Michigan on the road playing them in back to back weeks. USC is a toss-up as well as Washington on the road.

Their schedule is a joke. They get Taint and USC at home and hard to see Michigan beating them. @Washington could be tricky but hard to see them losing l more than 2 games in the regular season

I am gradually starting to feel about Indiana how I feel about Penn St---minus the perverted coach.

 

[OBLIVION]

UAB with a big run

 

[West_Texas_Cane]

The NW QB needs to personally reimburse every NW fan who traveled to watch him play this atrocious. May God have mercy on his soul

Michigan has a **** good defense thus far. Number 10 in the country with the top-ranked DL according to PFF.

Talent yes. Depth nope. I saw after that last play the one OL holding his knee trying to get up. I think they only have like 6 upperclassmen on the OL. Everyone else are lightly recruited freshmen and r/s freshmen. That’s the danger of loading your roster through the portal.

 

[rascon]

Chiles is one of the worst QBs who’s ever stepped foot on a field

And there was some services that had him rated higher in the portal than Cam Ward.

I don't believe people have watched them play this season they haven't looked good at all. This NW team is terrible, and yet they are still in the game at half.

I thought Hoover was supposed to be the Young Jesus. Up 12-0 at the Half against Northwestern?

That's like being up 12-0 against a pick-up team of pornstars led by Ron Jeremy from Chatsworth. Plus losing that RB is like us losing Malachi. Good God, I thought Indiana was going to be the only thing standing between us and a Natty at the end of the year.

Maybe not?

BTW, should we put some stock in the Fighting Golddiggers when Notre Dame go to play them in Chapel Hill next week? Upset alert? Has Bill found is groove? Are they a threat to us? Asking for a Friend before the Clemson game starts.

Cignetti is really a good coach. But offensively they are a system that just spams the same stuff over and over. Without a run game that RPO ain’t gonna fool anyone. And Hoover will return to TCU 2-1 TD INT Hoover.

 

[OBLIVION]

Hopefully NW took Chiles blaster shield off and reinstalled his hands.

I wouldn't call their schedule a joke. They play Ohio State followed by ranked Michigan on the road, a ranked USC at home, and a ranked Washington on the road.

We literally have 1 game against a ranked team. Maybe 2 if VT keeps winning. We're the one's with the joke schedule. No fault of our own Clemson sucks. FSU sucks. We need to win all the ACC games.
