Is this the first time that both “big game” shows have been at the same game that isn’t a championship game or anything?

Indiana is going to win today, lose in the Big Ten championship game, win their first-round playoff game, and then get blown out in the second round aren't they.

How did Indiana coach, Curt Cignetti, age 63, turn them around in his first year. They were 3-9 last year, 1-8 in the conference.

His last stop as an assistant was with Saban for four years before being the head coach at IUP, Elon and James Madison from 2011-2023.

He described his time with Saban as a "doctorate-level course" in program building.

"His Indiana tenure began with the daunting challenge of overcoming low expectations, as media voters had predicted Indiana to finish 17th out of 18 teams in the Big Ten. In response, during one of his first press conferences, when asked how he planned to appeal to incoming players, Cignetti confidently responded, "It's pretty simple. I win," before pausing and adding, "Google me.""

“Recognizing his transformative impact, Indiana University rewarded Cignetti partway through the first season with a new eight-year contract. The deal doubled his salary to $8 million annually and included commitments to upgrade the football program, such as stadium enhancements and increased athlete and staff compensation.”

Their SOS so far is ranked 67 out of 134 teams. I don't think it is that much of a stretch to flip your record unless you were getting blown out in the season before. Looking back at their 2023 season it does look like 4 of their loses were blowout territory.

Indiana coach deciding not to use his timeouts in a 3rd and goal situation. Smh. Could've had a minute left to try to get something before half and get the ball back.

You need to optimize every possession. Loser mentality. He looks so defeated going into halftime

Sanders just got hit at the end of a play and stayed down, prompting a timeout for an injured player and CU’s trainer to come out. Sanders got up and walked to the sideline, then came back in without missing a play.
