At halftime, Indiana is slaughtering Ducks in Atlanta. Three TDs on turnovers including a pick six on the first play of the game.

IU -9 over Miami?

This team is genuinely frightening.

Well, Indiana is 90% terrifying but 10% of Oregon didn’t hand them four freebie TDs on turnovers this is a closer game and lol I’m just kidding, Indiana like +6

Give full credit to the Hoosier defense for the turnovers. Constant pressure on the Ducks qb really caused shaky play. My nephew who is a Ducks alum living in Eugene must be crying in his (home brewed) beer. Only losses by the Ducks this year were to Indiana.

GIven the game location IU favorite as a road team. That may lower the spread just a bit. IU will have a lot if fans at the game. That will help them. Having BIG win 3 in a row is a good thing.

Many pointing out the maturity of the Indiana roster comparing the average age to some of the younger NFL teams why the Hoosiers have dominated. “Boys to (vs) Men”.

I get where the line is, but I think Indiana will win by ten.

I'm genuinely curious if Miami's pass rush can cause enough problems to make this a low scoring game like OSU did in the BTT game. They've been amazing.

1983? (Canes 31-Huskers 30.)

If you're referencing the 2001 natty, that was controversial precisely because it was the dying gasps of the previously dominant Huskers, who'd been whomped by Colorado in their prior game, were not undefeated, and still BCS computered into the title game anyway. The last time an unbeaten Husker team played in the Orange Bowl was the start of their dynasty in '94.

EDIT: The last time an unbeaten Husker team played Miami there, I should say.

I still laugh (and in a good way, if I would ever meet him I would just shake my head and shake his hand and say....Dude....LOL...) because he sold some sort of second rate (more like third rate, fourth rate, fifth rate) audio website called broadcast.com to yahoo that simply linked to already existing College Football and Basketball games (and some other things, rock concerts, some other events, but college sports was the main thing). He sold it to yahoo for 5.7 BILLION dollars. As I recall it it was just site with a list of teams, and "click here to listen to Arkansas Razorback football" and "Click here to listen to South Florida Basketball" and....that was pretty much it. Maybe he had some agreement with someone for some articles, some stats. A few other things, here or there, but lawdy miss Clawdy 5.7 billion?

Mark Cuban: ‘People thought I was an idiot’ for launching the company I sold for billions

Mark Cuban says skeptics laughed in 1995 when he launched Broadcast.com, the streaming audio startup that eventually sold to Yahoo for $5.7 billion.

Yahoo closed down broadcast.com a few years later as people didn't use it for anything. To use NU as an example, why go there to that site when you can just go to WGN.com? Same with...any team.

Good for him though!

Mark Cuban’s success is more evidence of a few maxims:

1. There’s a sucker born every minute (Yahoo! Was born about 30 years ago, was “the first Google”, and has made many mistakes)

2. Knowing when to sell is Important

3. It is often better to be lucky than good. 🤷‍♂️

It also speaks to the exaggerated role of sports in American culture. If he had never bought the Mavericks which led to his overexposure and role on “Shark Tank”, then we likely would never have heard his name.

I wonder what % of Indiana’s NIL he has accounted for

This whole age thing from the media about IU's roster cracks me up.

UM and dOSU won Natties in large part bc of a large no of veteran/upperclassmen opting to return instead of declaring for the draft, and that's also why BGJ ended up getting fired because the Nittany Lions were in the same boat with many players having opted to return, but without anywhere close to the level of success.

Anyhow, the ESECN talking heads are grudgingly admitting that the B1G is the better conference (at least at the top), but they're still peddling the falsehood about the "SEC gauntlet"/that the middle of the SEC is so much better.

The clown that is Finebaum (who admitted to being a paid-troll for the SEC.) had the gall to say that what Vandy did this season was similar to what IU is doing. Lol

What Vandy did this season is not even comparable to what some NU teams did in the past...
