The whistle was after (or perhaps simultaneous) he dropped it

 

It was wrong to blow a whistle by the refs at the time anyway. He never had the ball. Refs probably would of just called it inadvertent.

exactly....... that wasn't going to undo the fumble recovery. Somebody just jumped the gun, assuming he was going to catch it

Good win by the Big Blue. Given everything they had to deal with in Hart and Henne, they played well. The defense stepped up big time and a great game plan without Mike Hart.

 

This is finally the Michigan team we expected early in the year. I tried to tell folks it was coming.

Great game between LSU and Auburn going on.

 

Why didn't Auburn challenge the spot on that play? It was clearly short, the ref got the spot wrong by six inches to a foot.

 

Wow! LSU just iced it.

I'm not sure what makes you so sure Miles isn't a great coach. It sure as hell took a lot of stones to make that call at that point. Granted, it wasn't that risky of a call because there was time left if the pass was incomplete or if Flynn was sacked (although that would have made the FG tougher). The only real downside was an interception and the odds of that happening if you throw it deep to the end zone weren't great. An underthrown pass could have been disastrous, however. Maybe its just a matter of knowing your personnel and trusting them.

 

I'd call that good coaching.

But I agree -- with games against Ball State and Northwestern left, we should be bowling.

Indiana should beat Ball State, but I find it funny that you both mentioned Northwestern as a game they should win. IU's 2 wins in the Big Ten are the 2 teams at the bottom of the standings and they lost by 25 at Michigan State, where Northwestern won. I'm just saying, you have no real reason to be confident about winning in Evanston. Not to say I expect the Cats to win that game (it's in the very winnable category), but c'mon guys, you are still Indiana football.

Anybody got a corner, closet, or basement I can go hide in for the rest of the year?

Yeah....Mizzou is good. 41-10 should be a statement. Harrell must have nightmares about Mizzou's defense. That's 2 years in a row.

 

Mizzou is better than most people know, but eventually they will find out unless they do the usual and lose a game they have no business losing. Today, they ran the ball well, which made the offense resemble Northwestern's more than Tech's. I luuuuvvv watching run-first spread offenses, it's the good combination of being able to score quickly and run out the clock when needed.

Congrats UM. Mendenhall still being completely underutilized. No reason not to have 25-30 carries every single game. The QB roulette is just ridiculous. And a big f*** you to Joe Morgan and Kyle Hudson, those two gave Michigan the game tonight.

So....basically U of I isnt as good as Michigan. Pretty poor showing by a team that needed a win. The QB position is lacking as is the secondary. No reason U of I shouldnt have taken that game if they really wanted it.

 

If there was any time to beat big blue it was tonight with no Hart and no Henne. U of I just isnt there yet, they are a middle of the pack team.

I never claimed it to be in the bag. If you see, I mentioned Purdue as well. I'm just saying those are the games IU has the best potential of getting wins in.
