We’re Iowa on steroidsThe Ohio State game, PSU game and Iowa games were physical in nature. Each was close, and could have been lost.

Yea and I think IU got some nice games with backups and such.. Not including 2 fcs schools a G5 and then 6 of 7 bottom b1g teams..I didn’t look into this further how it compares to others but this will be the 8th top 30 offense we face this year
That’s pretty wild
Trebor Peña went 6rec for 99yds.Who is the best slot receiver Indiana has faced this year?
Have they faced a Jedi Knight yet?

“Adversity”We're battle tested.
I’m going to laugh if opening series they go 3 and out and we easily push them around for a god forbid if there are any IU fans around me that happens“Adversity”

THE WEZ.. (the original board)I don't know who funded the banner planes when Golden was here - but when we win - it might be fun to fund a billboard or two in Indianapolis and another one or two in Bloomington, just off campuses.
"Miami Hurricanes! Big Boy Football!"
They're putting gas on a fire that's already burning strong....“Adversity”

The DL has to win their matchups. Our secondary will be just as important to winning this game.Blay, Moten, Scott are gonna be key in this game.
#1 key to me, they are a run the ball, ball control outfit with rpos and such to keep a defense honest so they can stay ahead of sticks. They want to RUN and stay ahead of chains, then they take shots once they cross 50..Blay, Moten, Scott are gonna be key in this game.
Man, stopping the backshoulder throw is tough. I agree that you have to get physical with the WR but it's such a hard pass to defend for the DB because of the positioning of the WR which essentially blocks the DB from making a play on the ball.On the back shoulder fade throw.
1. You have to have big receivers. That throw doesn’t work for smaller WRs like Toney.
2. DBs are taught to be on top of routes to take away the deep routes. So when you are against a QB that is great at purposely under throwing the ball, that’s problematic for the DB.
3. The best defense is to have big physical corners. The key to stopping the back shoulder fade is for the DB to be able to “feel” the WR. Feel him slow down, feel him turn his body, feel him put his hands up.
4. The back shoulder fade is truly a 50/50 ball. The offense will get theirs and the defense will get theirs. But when will the “getting” be? If the DBs get theirs on third down, it’s punting season.
50/50, man. Our physical corners vs their big WRs.
