Indiana Hoosiers (2025 National Champions)

it’s what all the big programs should be doing.

These smaller schools need the money anyhow with less OOC games for the big conferences. You get great experience for back ups, you stay healthier, and I think Indiana is banking on the fact that there’s more risk in losing these games than there’s upside in winning them.

I think they’re right.

We very well could be out of the playoffs if we drop 2 more games even if they’re close and even if they’re to top 10 teams. There’s absolutely a world where we finish 9-3 with 3 losses coming by a total of 3 points yet we are out of the playoffs despite losses to 3 top 10 teams.

It risks a lot. But let’s see how this year ends up.

If the scenario above happens and we miss the playoffs we better cancel those OOC games with UGA etc

Indiana Hoosiers (2025 National Champions)

I'll this one positive thought... With matchups set years out in a lot of cases, how many options did they really have to fill an OOC hole for next season? Granted, they didn't HAVE to drop UMASS, but is this really a major downgrade/upgrade?
You pointed out the problem in your question. They already had UMass - one of the worst FBS programs of all time until this year - scheduled along with fucking Kennesaw State and Jacksonville State. That is an abomination of an OOC slate, forgetting about whether they "need" to schedule better ones or not.

Login to view embedded media Its almost like Whittingham and Beck had no clue what kind of offensive talent they had when they took their positions. Neither RB fits what they've had success with in the past. And the WRs they paid a bunch for(Marsh and Ffrench) don't fit the scheme where they need to be solid blockers, and the threat of the run(there is none) is supposed to spring them free for deep passes. With the run not being able to succeed, the passing game becomes almost non existent. Its going to be a long season dealing with this offense, since Beck also needs to treat Underwood with kid gloves as well. He can't trust him to read defenses, and make his own reads, so every RPO has already been chosen when the play is called, that's missing the most important part of the RPO, the Option. It almost reminds me of the spread offense RichRod tried to implement, and could never get his players because he had too many remnants of Carr's teams. Ad that's where Whittingham is now, trying to fit a round peg in a square hole
Hey Klatt......how about you stfu and let them figure it out on their own
