    Indiana Hoosiers Will Beat Ohio State Buckeyes!

    Tuesday, September 29, 2009, 05:37 PM EST [General]

    Indiana Hoosiers Will Beat Ohio State Buckeyes!

    if...

    1. Indiana can move the ball like they did last week in the Big House in Ann Arbor. IU outgained the ranked Wolverines by 90 yards or so.

    2. Indiana can capitalize on some key turnovers, scoring in the red zone unlike the only four of five FGs they got against Michigan last week.

    3. All three elements play without major mistakes. This is a sellout in Bloomington, and while there will be a sizable contingent from Columbus in the new and improved Memorial Stadium with the North End Zone addition; the crowd will be plenty loud for the Hoosiers.

    Stay in the game early and watch the excitement grow. Special teams and defense will be pumped and productive.

    Hoosiers!

    4. Get the home calls, unlike the game sealing shared "interception" that ended IU's comeback chances against the Wolves. The refs missed the call. Tie goes to the runner.

    Meaning, a shared completion by a receiver and a defender is considered a completion when the play ends upon contact with the ground. That is what happened, not what was called with two minutes to go and trailing by three.

    But an upset over the Bucks will cure all past missed calls by the home cooked officials.

    Go Hoosiers!

    I was working during the game and called my wife as she watched IU's first TD in the second quarter, 10-7 game.

    What a relief!

    Unlike UM the week before, IU could not run on the Bucks.

    I hope that they open it up this Saturday in VA where I will be with my daughter.

    Good luck to OSU, they are very talented.

    I expect Indiana to improve as they play the rest of the season and go bowling. Lesson learned this weekend.

    Also, IU had great crowds and results against Ohio State under Mallory. I remember those years well and hope for better results now...

    Thanks for supplying a third of the tickets, IU needs the money!

    Ed, the last time IU was shutout was on Oct 3rd, 2009. Maybe. You guys did look good on offense but the Buckeyes are on a roll with two shutouts. Might be the first time that there are more IU fans than OSU fans at the game. I'm sure you remember when IU did their publicity films for recruitment when IU hosted OSU in order to have a stadium full of red jerseys. Anyway I am happy for IU and looking forward to the game. If my Buckeyes take this one lightly they could be surprised. I just think that Tressel is unlikely to let that happen. The Buckeyes are rarely upset and it shows in the record with ALL losses over the past 4 years coming against ranked or BCS bound teams. Thanks for the post.

    Yes, I am going! I think we talked about this a month ago, long before most people suspected that IU might be that good (or UVA that bad).

    I am taking my oldst girl and we should have a fun October day.

    I have had to work four weekends in a row and I am happy to have that Saturday off. I would have gone to Akron (potentially) if I had had the 19th off.

    Hopefully I can see IU play PSU next year in DC.

    Good luck Wolverines. You will need it.

    Remember that?

    Peace, bro.

    WOW call the upset. IU has a lot of 5th year seniors on their team and it showed against Michigan with our young team. I don't know if you guys will beat Ohio State because their Freshmen maybe just as talented as IU's Sr.s. It will come down to coaching and if TP stays in the pocket and just manage a game, I think the Bucks could lose, but OSU has too much talent.

    GOOD LUCK ANYWAY!

    P.S. Are you going to the IU/UVA game? I am going as well. I"ll be rooting for you guys against the Hoos.
