You know, we'll talk a little 89 00:04:30,280 --> 00:04:33,640 bit here, I guess, about last. Week's game, now that it's in 90 00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:36,040 the rearview mirror. Yeah, that was a very. 91 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:38,680 Very difficult game. And very, just very difficult 92 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:40,160 to. Watch Indiana. 93 00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:43,760 Lose the way that it did to. Rutgers 31 to 14, the final 94 00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:46,040 score and, you know, just a game. 95 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:48,720 Where you know essentially by the time the. 96 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:53,400 Fourth quarter started Indiana. Was statistically dead, I think 97 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:55,280 that. Rutgers got to a 99% win. 98 00:04:55,280 --> 00:04:58,160 Probability with about 12 minutes left in the fourth 99 00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:00,320 quarter. Indiana just never showed any 100 00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:02,880 signs of life. On offense in that fourth 101 00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:03,800 quarter of play? Really. 102 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:06,160 Really. Upsetting and disappointing and. 103 00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:10,440 You know, not a lot else to say. Beyond what we said in the. 104 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:12,680 Postgame press, Postgame press conference, right. 105 00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:16,840 Postgame Podcast on. Sunday other than you know, in 106 00:05:16,840 --> 00:05:19,640 reflection. You know, you look. 107 00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:21,240 At that game and you look at the. 108 00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:24,120 Position that Indiana was in. I mean, they really needed to 109 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:25,480 win that game. They win that game. 110 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:28,000 They're three and. 4. You know they're ahead of 111 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:30,360 Michigan State. They weirdly at that point. 112 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:31,800 They would have only. Been one game. 113 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:35,960 Back in Maryland in the Big 10. East and at least then you feel 114 00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:39,160 like you've got. Some level of. 115 00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:41,520 Balance in what? You have to do down the line 116 00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:42,760 every game. Isn't a must? 117 00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:44,400 Win at that point. You can. 118 00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:48,440 Still reasonably scrape through. And. 119 00:05:48,840 --> 00:05:50,600 You know, pick up. The wins that you. 120 00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:55,680 Need to get to a bowl? And Indiana loses that game and. 121 00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:57,040 Now they're two and five. They're. 122 00:05:57,040 --> 00:05:59,800 O and four in conference, and they're staring down the barrel. 123 00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:01,960 Of a bunch of. Games that are. 124 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:03,760 You know, on. Paper somewhat winnable. 125 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:06,160 But you look at Indiana's, you know, as a comp to the. 126 00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:07,400 Teams that they're going to be playing. 127 00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:10,160 After this. Upcoming week Wisconsin, 128 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:12,320 Illinois. Michigan State you can kind of 129 00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:14,320 put aside because of how. Just weird. 130 00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:15,840 And bad their season has been. And then? 131 00:06:15,840 --> 00:06:19,880 Of course, Purdue. And it feels like all of those 132 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:23,640 teams with with the. Exception really of Michigan 133 00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:26,200 State have had. At least a moment. 134 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:29,480 Where it felt like they were doing some positive things. 135 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:31,520 I mean, you know, Purdue. Big blowout. 136 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:34,880 Win at home against. Illinois, they won on the road. 137 00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:36,840 Against Virginia Tech. Illinois. 138 00:06:36,840 --> 00:06:39,200 Big win on the road against Maryland. 139 00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:41,280 You know which. Is really kind of their only 140 00:06:41,280 --> 00:06:43,200 signature, but they also were. Close against. 141 00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:45,720 Wisconsin last week you. Know they weren't. 142 00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:47,400 They were completely embarrassed by. 143 00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:51,840 By Nebraska, you know Wisconsin who's been very up and down. 144 00:06:51,840 --> 00:06:54,080 But yeah, they've got wins against Purdue and. 145 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:57,000 Rutgers and Illinois. And they weren't embarrassing. 146 00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:58,120 Against Iowa, they just couldn't. 147 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:01,840 Score Indiana doesn't really have any of. 148 00:07:01,840 --> 00:07:05,960 That and it's. It's really disappointing, you 149 00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:07,320 know, because. Even if you compare Indiana to 150 00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:08,800 Michigan. State who has not looked good at 151 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:10,840 least. Michigan State has been in some 152 00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:14,760 games they they only. Lost by 10 to Iowa on the road. 153 00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:17,520 They only lost by. Three to Rutgers and were 154 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:18,840 leading. In the fourth quarter. 155 00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:20,880 It'll be interesting. To see how they fare in their 156 00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:22,040 next. Couple of games they've got. 157 00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:24,520 Minnesota on the road, in Nebraska at home. 158 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:27,120 And my biggest? Complaint with Indiana is that 159 00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:28,800 they. You know, if you take the 160 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:30,000 Louisville. Game out. 161 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:34,680 They just haven't been in any of these games in the second-half 162 00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:36,760 we. Talked in the preview last week 163 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:38,560 for this Rutgers. Game about. 164 00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:42,080 How Indiana was likely. Going to compete in that first 165 00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:44,800 half. And then Rutgers would adjust. 166 00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:46,640 And Indiana wouldn't and that would be it. 167 00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:48,560 And that's pretty much. Exactly what happened. 168 00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:52,840 Indiana looked fairly good defensively to start. 169 00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:54,840 And then just got. Ground into a pulp. 170 00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:58,200 By Rutgers and and that. You know this is? 171 00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:00,680 One of those things that I we've been mentioning on the podcast 172 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:03,360 as much. Focus has been placed. 173 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:06,720 On Indiana's offense. Indiana's defense has. 174 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:10,640 Just been bad. You know, and this is now 175 00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:13,600 another. Week where Indiana has. 176 00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:15,320 Surrendered at least 30. Points. 177 00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:16,920 To a Big 10 opponent and this is. 178 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:20,120 A streak if you go. Back over the last two and a. 179 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:24,160 Half years now, Indiana has surrendered more than. 30 points 180 00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:28,160 to most of the teams that they played in Big 10 play, and 181 00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:29,920 that's just not. Getting the job done, I mean. 182 00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:31,800 Yes, the offense. Certainly needs to get. 183 00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:36,559 Better but. The fact that Indiana gives up 184 00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:38,400 31 to. Rutgers a team that. 185 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:39,799 Only runs the ball. I mean they. 186 00:08:39,799 --> 00:08:42,440 They only completed I think 5. Passes in that entire game. 187 00:08:43,039 --> 00:08:44,320 As we talked about in the post. Game. 188 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:47,960 That's just. Not that's not acceptable. 189 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:50,280 It's not good and it really makes. 190 00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:53,120 It hard. You know if you, if you. 191 00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:55,480 You could have tried to talk yourself prior to the Rutgers. 192 00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:59,720 Game Into this team has a shot. And it's really hard to talk 193 00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:01,280 yourself. Into it at this point and. 194 00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:04,080 You know this is the absolute wrong. 195 00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:06,600 Team at the absolute wrong time for Indiana to be in this 196 00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:10,920 particular state, Penn State coming off a game. 197 00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:14,040 Where they They really did. Kind of embarrass. 198 00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:16,320 Themselves on the national stage again. 199 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:19,200 You know they they. Lose it was only an 8 point. 200 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:23,640 Loss to Ohio State But what was? Embarrassing for Penn. 201 00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:27,120 State in this game. Was not the loss. 202 00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:29,120 But it was the fact that. You know this? 203 00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:31,560 Seemed like a team that potentially. 204 00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:35,160 Could have been, you know, able to beat Ohio State. 205 00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:40,920 Ohio State has not been that. Impressive so far this year, You 206 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:42,320 know, they they had that skin of their teeth. 207 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:45,000 Victory. Against Notre Dame, they 208 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:48,160 obviously. You know, they they struggled a 209 00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:51,200 little bit against Indiana offensively, which was weird to 210 00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:53,640 see. You know, they just, they 211 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:56,760 haven't had the vibe of. The Ohio State. 212 00:09:56,760 --> 00:09:58,600 Dominant teams that we've seen over. 213 00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:02,080 The course of the last several seasons, you know, So it felt 214 00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:04,600 like this was a spot where Penn State. 215 00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:07,880 Could have picked them off they. Felt right for the. 216 00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:10,680 Picking, but Penn State has just been. 217 00:10:10,680 --> 00:10:13,920 Catastrophically bad in these top ten matchups over the course 218 00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:16,320 of James Franklin's career. And this was another one where 219 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:18,640 they just. Couldn't get the job done when 220 00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:19,880 they needed. To and so. 221 00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:22,000 Penn State. You know to some. 222 00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:25,600 Degree, again, has been. Relegated to the second tier of 223 00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:30,080 the big. 10 and now has to sit. By and and watch as Ohio State 224 00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:31,600 kind of coast through the rest of their. 225 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:33,160 Schedule until the Michigan game. 226 00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:35,360 Under normal circumstances you'd. 227 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:37,720 Look at what happened in that Ohio State game and you'd say, 228 00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:38,960 well, gosh, your Penn State can't. 229 00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:40,560 Compete there? Surely they. 230 00:10:40,560 --> 00:10:43,120 Can't compete against Michigan. The flip side, of course. 231 00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:46,520 Being that Michigan seems to be. Completely falling apart thanks 232 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:48,920 to this sign. Stealing scandal that's 233 00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:50,320 engulfed. Their program. 234 00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:53,080 To the point that it's hard to. Get your head wrapped around 235 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:55,480 what they're even going to look like. 236 00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:57,600 Michigan. I mean down. 237 00:10:57,600 --> 00:10:59,800 The road. But, but even with all of that, 238 00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:02,520 you know Penn State lost the game that they had to win to 239 00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:04,080 really make themselves a competitor. 240 00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:06,280 And now they find themselves in a position. 241 00:11:06,680 --> 00:11:09,960 Where they're going to. You know. 242 00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:14,280 Have to make up style points and that's what worries me about 243 00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:18,000 this week. Penn State on the season they're 244 00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:23,720 six and. 1. They are looking at a run out 245 00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:28,160 with games at home against Indiana this weekend, at 246 00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:30,120 Maryland next weekend, Michigan at home. 247 00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:31,680 The following week, Rutgers at home the. 248 00:11:31,680 --> 00:11:36,320 Week after that, and then at Michigan State, Penn State, and. 249 00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:39,120 I think this year really did harbor ambitions of being in the 250 00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:41,120 College Football Playoff and. The only way they're. 251 00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:43,720 Going to be able to do that. Is if they. 252 00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:45,160 Blow the doors. Off of. 253 00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:47,920 Indiana and then. Win. 254 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:49,760 The remainder of their. Games including beating 255 00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:51,560 Michigan. At home, which is doable, you 256 00:11:51,560 --> 00:11:54,400 know, But I think for now, there's there's so many 257 00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:56,480 questions about this Penn State offense and look. 258 00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:58,880 We know. Ohio State's defense is very 259 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:01,480 difficult to go up against, but in the eyes of the. 260 00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:04,240 Voters the way that. Penn State lost that. 261 00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:06,040 Game and the way. That they performed. 262 00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:08,800 Is going to. Disqualify them from serious 263 00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:12,400 playoff contention unless they make up a lot of ground here. 264 00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:13,800 Over the. Course of this. 265 00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:17,920 Next several weeks and. You know, you look at, you know, 266 00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:21,000 Penn State's offensive statistics drew aller the very 267 00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:22,320 young. Quarterback that they have. 268 00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:24,240 A 18 for 40. Two for 100. 269 00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:26,440 And 91 yards. And a touchdown like that? 270 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:28,360 That's. Going to be real hard. 271 00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:31,920 To justify in terms. Of Oh yeah, we. 272 00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:33,880 You know, we we. Would back Penn State as a team 273 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:34,760 that would look good in the college. 274 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:38,160 Football Playoff rushing wise, you know Penn State's top two 275 00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:41,400 backs only carry the ball 9. Times each 48 yards and then 26 276 00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:45,120 yards, they're they're leading. Receiver only at 52 yards 277 00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:48,520 receiving. They just, they just didn't look 278 00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:50,520 up to the task offensively and so. 279 00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:52,320 That's what. Worries me the most about this 280 00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:53,160 game. Is that Penn? 281 00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:59,240 State is an absolute dire need of a big. 282 00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:02,640 Offensive game and Indiana's defense has just not shown an 283 00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:04,840 ability to stop anybody in any phase of the game. 284 00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:06,640 You can throw in Indiana, you can. 285 00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:09,120 Run on Indiana. You. 286 00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:12,120 You really? You know, in almost everything, 287 00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:16,720 Indiana has struggled. Defensively, the one place where 288 00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:21,560 Indiana hasn't struggled weirdly enough is an allowing, explosive 289 00:13:21,560 --> 00:13:23,760 place. Indiana's actually, Quite. 290 00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:26,560 Good at limiting opponent explosiveness. 291 00:13:26,560 --> 00:13:30,320 The problem? Is that Penn State? 292 00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:33,120 Doesn't rely on explosiveness. They are like one of the least 293 00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:35,440 explosive. Teams in college football they 294 00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:38,240 may be. The least explosive but. 295 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:41,840 The flip side and just. For definition's sake, and I'm 296 00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:44,680 I'm borrowing off of Taylor Layman's cheat here from Bite 297 00:13:44,680 --> 00:13:47,120 Sized Bison. So go read this in more detail, 298 00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:50,520 but explosiveness is a metric which is. 299 00:13:50,560 --> 00:13:53,640 The you know, essentially. The average expected? 300 00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:56,280 Points added on successful plays, which means like the 301 00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:57,040 more. Yards you can. 302 00:13:57,040 --> 00:13:59,880 Pick up on a. Play whether it's passing or. 303 00:13:59,880 --> 00:14:02,080 Running the more explosive it is, and Penn State just isn't 304 00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:04,000 really built for that. What they are built. 305 00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:07,440 For is very, very. Consistent success. 306 00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:11,080 They are. In the top 25 in offensive 307 00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:13,760 success. Rate they They score a lot of. 308 00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:16,200 Points, I mean, they're ninth in the country and points scored 309 00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:21,040 per game, they average about 40 points a game and. 310 00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:23,280 You know, you look at, you know what they do really well. 311 00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:24,800 In terms of their. Offense. 312 00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:26,480 They're very good. Running the ball. 313 00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:28,720 Which that's. Bad news for Indiana, given that 314 00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:30,720 they just got. Run all over by Rutgers. 315 00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:32,960 And they're very good. At getting points on every 316 00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:34,880 drive. They're just, they're not. 317 00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:39,000 Great at generating. The the number of drives because 318 00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:42,120 they take a lot of time on each of those drives, but they. 319 00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:44,320 Also, don't turn the ball over, which is a problem because 320 00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:45,800 Indiana. Doesn't turn their opponents. 321 00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:48,600 Over so you. You look at this in totality 322 00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:50,640 Penn State. You know while their. 323 00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:53,680 Offense has been. Kind of pedestrian, they. 324 00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:56,320 They do a good job of. Capitalizing when they do have 325 00:14:56,320 --> 00:15:00,600 opportunities and Indiana just does a bad job of defending. 326 00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:03,640 What Penn State does well on offense What? 327 00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:06,280 You know, so that's. That's to me, the biggest 328 00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:10,320 problem is that Penn State has to get a great. 329 00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:12,760 Offensive game, and I don't think Indiana's defense has 330 00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:14,280 shown themselves. Up to the task. 331 00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:17,400 Of stopping an. Opposition like Penn State, who 332 00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:18,680 has a lot of really good players. 333 00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:20,720 And the fact that. You've got a young. 334 00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:23,840 Quarterback who you know. You tried to rely? 335 00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:25,240 On against Ohio State and you failed you. 336 00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:26,720 Don't have to do that against Indiana. 337 00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:27,960 Because you can just rely on your running. 338 00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:30,480 Attack. Conversely, offensively 339 00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:35,280 speaking, Indiana one of the worst offenses in the power. 340 00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:38,960 Five. And in terms of your rushing 341 00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:40,480 success? Points for opportunity 342 00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:43,960 explosiveness. Points per drive one of the 343 00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:46,800 worst. Offenses in all of FBS, not just 344 00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:50,040 the Power 5. And Penn State is one of the 345 00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:50,760 best. Defenses. 346 00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:54,360 Their third in the nation in defense, according to S and. 347 00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:56,600 P plus their 7th. In the nation, in defense, 348 00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:57,560 according. To. 349 00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:01,320 Pro Football Focus their. Second, according to FBI. 350 00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:03,440 And their first in defensive success rate. 351 00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:07,000 Like they really do a good job. Of making you. 352 00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:10,800 Miserable offensively, and they. Force a lot of turnovers, their 353 00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:12,440 10th in the country. And turnovers forced. 354 00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:14,000 It's. One of the few things Indiana's 355 00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:16,360 done well this year is not turn the ball over. 356 00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:19,040 An excessive amount on offense. This is the kind of. 357 00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:21,480 Game where I really worry about. Indiana turning the ball. 358 00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:25,360 Over a bunch. So when I look at this game. 359 00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:30,640 I try to figure out, you know, like you're not, you're a 360 00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:32,960 reasonable person, isn't walking into this game. 361 00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:37,600 Expecting Indiana to win? S&P plus is projecting A. 39 to 362 00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:40,560 9 victory. For Penn State, a 30 point win, 363 00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:42,720 which. Might be about right that might. 364 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:44,880 Actually, be conservative. It was certainly Conservative 365 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:47,800 last week. When S&P plus projected a nine 366 00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:52,080 point Indiana loss and Indiana ended up losing by what, 17? 367 00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:56,160 You know, so I I try instead of. Gosh, Indiana's got to win the 368 00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:57,320 game. Because that really doesn't seem 369 00:16:57,360 --> 00:16:59,120 like a reasonable stance. I try instead. 370 00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:01,600 To focus on. Well, what can Indiana do in 371 00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:05,040 this game that might. Help to set themselves up for 372 00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:07,119 the last four. Games which you know if you 373 00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:08,040 lose. This game you have. 374 00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:11,720 To win the last four and even, I mean even if you're going. 375 00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:13,240 To give a bowl. Eligibility which? 376 00:17:13,599 --> 00:17:15,920 Probably would be wise, you know, I think. 377 00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:17,880 If you. Can win two of your last four 378 00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:19,680 after. This one, that's not great. 379 00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:22,839 But at least you're treading water at that point. 380 00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:27,160 From last season and. As much as people. 381 00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:30,480 Are. Upset about the idea that that 382 00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:31,920 would be. Acceptable A It's not. 383 00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:34,640 Acceptable, but it's better than going backwards. 384 00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:36,880 If you're an IU. Football fan You don't want to 385 00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:39,040 be three and nine. You don't want to be two and 10. 386 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:42,920 So you you want to show some level of competitiveness, I 387 00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:44,320 think the. Big thing for Indiana in this 388 00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:47,160 game. You know they the fact that they 389 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:49,240 had a couple of successful. Drives at the beginning. 390 00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:51,440 Of the last two. Games offensively? 391 00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:53,560 Is a small something. To. 392 00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:56,440 Potentially be happy about. And that is. 393 00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:59,720 We're talking incredibly small. Steps here we're talking about. 394 00:18:00,360 --> 00:18:03,360 No, there's no need. Here just be like, oh, 395 00:18:03,360 --> 00:18:04,480 everything. 'S turning around because. 396 00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:07,920 It's clearly not, but it's also a situation where you can look 397 00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:10,000 at it and you can say, well, the fact. 398 00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:12,160 That Indiana. Managed to go out and have some 399 00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:15,560 level of offensive success early in the first quarter against 400 00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:17,920 Michigan in the. First and second quarters. 401 00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:21,640 Against Rutgers. You can at least take. 402 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:24,520 Something out of that and I think for IU. 403 00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:28,040 As we go into. This Penn State game. 404 00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:31,880 That has to be the goal if you're going to start Brendan 405 00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:33,880 Soresby again, which. Appears to be what? 406 00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:38,440 Tom Allen is planning on doing. Although who really knows you? 407 00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:41,080 You've kind of committed yourself at that point to a more 408 00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:45,800 running based attack and that is. 409 00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:50,520 Something that Indiana might continue to make some marginal 410 00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:53,520 gains in, especially if you think about the offensive line 411 00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:57,920 kind of reconfiguring itself. That way you still have the 412 00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:00,720 specter of potentially seeing Dexter Williams at some point. 413 00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:04,840 We didn't get a whole lot of of ironclad thoughts on that from 414 00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:07,240 Tom Allen, other than that you know these apparently getting. 415 00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:08,560 Closer. Closer to what? 416 00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:12,120 We're not sure because that we would never be told that, but. 417 00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:15,680 But you know, Dexter. Apparently doing better. 418 00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:17,960 As far as his performance on on the. 419 00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:18,800 Practice. Field. 420 00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:21,880 And who knows, this might be a. Game where you? 421 00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:25,600 You could see him for a drive or two, it it's hard to say, but 422 00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:29,840 you know Indiana at this point they they need to put some 423 00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:32,640 points on the board and I think they need to do it early. 424 00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:37,320 They need to make Penn State work a bit in this game because 425 00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:39,080 I think. You know if you're going to try 426 00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:41,520 to build towards the last four. Games of the year. 427 00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:45,920 You have to say to yourself, look as as bad as things have 428 00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:49,800 transpired so far this season. You. 429 00:19:50,600 --> 00:19:52,760 You put yourself in a position. Where? 430 00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:55,360 You can kind of only go up if you're. 431 00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:57,600 If you're even halfway. Competitive for 1/2. 432 00:19:57,600 --> 00:20:00,120 Against Penn State, your fans are going to at. 433 00:20:00,120 --> 00:20:03,320 Least view that as. A small victory, you know, as 434 00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:04,880 part of a much larger. Loss. 435 00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:08,120 And. If you can keep Penn State from 436 00:20:08,120 --> 00:20:10,800 just rolling over. You and stymieing you and in 437 00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:14,920 both phases of play, then you know that gives you a good sense 438 00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:16,960 of what that level of. Competition is, and you're not 439 00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:19,200 going to have to play that level of competition again. 440 00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:22,000 That's your last. Really Like, horrifically tough. 441 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:26,000 Game of the season, and maybe it sets the table for giving your 442 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:28,960 offense especially. Some confidence as they head 443 00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:32,240 into the game the following week, which I think is 444 00:20:32,240 --> 00:20:34,040 important. Because Wisconsin is not the 445 00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:37,720 same caliber as Penn State. And what, you know, while 446 00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:41,160 Indiana's defense will probably struggle against the four and 447 00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:44,240 five star caliber talent of a Penn State, they might play 448 00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:45,720 better. You would hope. 449 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:49,080 Against teams that are about a notch or so down of that. 450 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:51,480 And I think Wisconsin certainly falls into that category. 451 00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:53,400 So I. You know, I guess. 452 00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:55,440 What? I'm leaving this game preview 453 00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:57,520 with IS. I'm not. 454 00:20:57,520 --> 00:21:00,680 Expecting an Indiana win? And I would, you know, I think 455 00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:03,520 the big thing Indiana can do is a not get injured if at all 456 00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:07,120 possible. But B, try to set the table for 457 00:21:07,360 --> 00:21:09,360 building some confidence internally. 458 00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:11,400 You know, we've obviously been very critical. 459 00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:13,160 Of Tom Allen. And the coaching staff, but I 460 00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:15,000 agree with. What Allen said in his. 461 00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:19,280 Press conference, I think it was either after the game or or it 462 00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:21,320 might have been the two. The Monday press conference I 463 00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:22,160 forget. Which one? 464 00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:25,640 But you know A. Lot of it now is is. 465 00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:29,400 Trying to keep your. Team from losing faith. 466 00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:32,480 And. Just kind of checking out on the 467 00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:34,200 season now. Some would argue that. 468 00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:37,240 That might have happened already, but I I, I. 469 00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:42,200 Do think that there's you know if you can hit the reset button 470 00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:43,680 one more time and and try to get. 471 00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:46,920 Squeeze some juice out of things here, you know, maybe you can 472 00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:49,760 reset. And go down the stretch in a 473 00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:51,960 positive way, I I'd be surprised. 474 00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:52,720 I mean, I. Feel like if. 475 00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:54,200 That was going to happen. It would have happened last 476 00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:57,880 weekend against Rutgers. And now you got to go into. 477 00:21:59,120 --> 00:22:02,080 Essentially, play Penn State at the at the height of their 478 00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:05,080 irritation over what happened. In that Michigan game. 479 00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:09,640 So this is not the most optimistic of podcasts. 480 00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:12,440 I'll be honest. It was one of those where I 481 00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:15,120 didn't even want to invite somebody on because there's not 482 00:22:15,120 --> 00:22:16,760 a lot to talk. About other than well. 483 00:22:16,760 --> 00:22:18,520 Gosh, the statistics look real bad for. 484 00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:20,840 Indiana and. Indiana look real bad last week, 485 00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:23,240 and real bad the week before and real bad the week. 486 00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:26,560 Before that, and it's almost at this point, it's like there's. 487 00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:30,240 Not even that interesting stuff in terms of personnel going on. 488 00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:32,920 There's some. Shuffling, going around on 489 00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:34,760 defense. Unfortunately, Noah Pierre looks 490 00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:36,440 like he's going to be out for the rest of the season. 491 00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:41,160 And on offense, I guess, the quarterback. 492 00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:42,800 Situation has finally been settled. 493 00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:46,880 And you know, Indiana has been getting some some decent 494 00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:50,200 contributions from different running backs, which. 495 00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:51,960 Is is interesting to? Watch. 496 00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:54,960 And you know, certainly that's. That's not. 497 00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:58,200 Something to ignore but. Yeah, you look at. 498 00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:00,360 Last week in terms of. Of running. 499 00:23:00,360 --> 00:23:03,880 Overall, you know Trent Howland, 9 carries, 54 yards. 500 00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:08,040 That's nice to see. Soresby 11 carries for. 49 yards 501 00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:09,880 and a touchdown. That's nice to see. 502 00:23:11,120 --> 00:23:14,200 I'd really like to see Jaylen. Lucas, get back into the mix and 503 00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:17,920 yeah, it's part of the problem. I think is just opposing teams 504 00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:20,680 know they just key on Jaylen Lucas. 505 00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:22,280 And they're not going to let him get. 506 00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:24,280 Free for yardage. Because they know that he can be 507 00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:26,240 damaging and I think the perception is well they. 508 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:29,320 You know, IU doesn't really have anybody else that can hurt us as 509 00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:31,240 much as Jalen. Lucas can at least carrying the 510 00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:34,840 ball. And so that that might be 511 00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:36,800 something to watch. Can Indiana find a way to get 512 00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:39,120 Jalen Lucas back into the ball game? 513 00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:42,960 And you know, can you they get him on tracked and special teams 514 00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:46,440 because he has certainly not had the year of special teams that 515 00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:48,280 you would have. Hoped especially. 516 00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:52,760 After the first game, so I think I my. 517 00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:56,640 Pick In this game, I think Indiana loses 45 to 6. 518 00:23:57,120 --> 00:23:59,800 I think Penn State might run out of gas, you know. 519 00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:01,960 Late in the second-half, I think. 520 00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:04,120 Indiana's going to really struggle to score. 521 00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:09,000 And, you know, six points. Might that might be too 522 00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:11,960 pessimistic, but I also think Penn State's. 523 00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:13,600 Going to have something to prove and I think they're going to 524 00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:16,120 come out from the very. Beginning of the game, trying to 525 00:24:16,120 --> 00:24:18,280 prove it and that is going to create some problems for 526 00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:19,120 Indiana. So. 527 00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:22,400 So hopefully Indiana's able to to put a better fight up that 528 00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:24,520 I'm predicting at this point. We'll see what happens. 529 00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:28,880 And we got a a big. Weekend coming up, obviously as 530 00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:31,440 IU gets ready for their. First exhibition. 531 00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:34,520 Game in men's basketball. Women's basketball practice is 532 00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:37,160 fully. Underway and a bunch of other 533 00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:38,560 important. Stuff going on Indiana 534 00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:39,760 volleyball going to be in action. 535 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:41,480 Indiana men's soccer going to be in action. 536 00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:45,000 Indiana women's soccer going to be in action, so a big weekend 537 00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:48,640 in general. For IU Athletics and we hope 538 00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:52,720 that football can hopefully add positive vibes to the party. 539 00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:55,840 As they take on Penn State national television Audience 540 00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:57,640 noon on. CBS. 541 00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:00,560 Always good to have your brand out there, not sure if the 542 00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:01,880 actual. On field is going to. 543 00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:05,320 Be what Indiana's hoping. For but hey, as I always say, 544 00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:08,720 you'd rather be bad. On national television than good 545 00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:09,920 with nobody. Watching. 546 00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:11,560 That's. Just kind of the rule of. 547 00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:14,520 Sports these days, at least at the college level Anyway, 548 00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:16,680 That'll wrap it up. We'll keep this one short. 549 00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:19,480 I really appreciate everybody.
