With a masterful, best in class QB who is an unfair comparison to Julian due to age.

That IU offense had so much experience, consistency, and surprisingly decent talent in 12 personnel.

The result?
- limped past Iowa
- played okay vs Oregon
- played okay vs PSU
- limped past OSU
- Narrowly beat Miami, despite being gifted 7 points on special teams.

That's not to undermine their effort, or how dominant they were at other times. But if OSU looked like Indiana most of the year, and then played like that against IU & Miami, the fans would not be pleased.

Winning cures all.

10 games left...6 wins to get to 20 on the season.

Wins I see: Maryland, USC, Iowa, Ped State

Toss-ups: Virginia, Indiana, Wisconsin

Unlikely to win: TCUN, Purdue

Not winning: @Sparty

@ Maryland

vs 3 Michigan

vs USC

vs 17 Virginia *

vs Wisconsin

@ 7 Michigan State

@ Iowa

vs 12 Purdue

@ Penn State

vs Indiana

I think if they can get to 20 wins against what they have left, and maybe win a game or two in the Big Ten tournament, they get in. We'll see - they could easily blow any of the 4 games they "should" win at the top too...

This.

They have to protect the narrative of superiority at all costs and feel justified in doing so because….wait for it…the narrative tells them so. They are better people and doing a little bad for the greater good is ok.

See Penn State and the Cult of Paterno.

Not quite as sick but same principle.

An honest dealer in for a couple of shifts at the black jack table doesn’t clean up the casino.

When the very core of your cultural identity consists of the ironclad belief that you're special, superior, can never do wrong but rather are always the victim, it gives license to engage in all kinds of disgusting behavior and show zero reflection or self-awareness for that behavior.

Whittingham will probably run a clean program for the 3 years that he is there, but he will fundamentally change nothing about the place.

BYU also has an absolutely amazing backdrop for their baseball stadium.

I really want to go there one season just for the sights.
much better view than all of the nothing that's in outfield in Lubbock at Texas Tech.

yeah, I'm biased, but I think Death Valley looks pretty damn good nestled right between the scoreboard and The Indimidator at The Box

edit to add: I may still make the 2 hour trip up to Lubbock on one of the 2 days they host a game when LSU is off.
$10 per ticket ain't too bad.
