    About Me: I have lived in different areas and am faithful to their passions, give or take. Born and raised in Bloomington, Indiana (1970-1989). Knight was a central figure. I then lived in Chile, where soccer became impressed upon me more than before. Returned to South America in 2005 with my then small family of wife and two girls. I love American football, b-ball, baseball, and more sports... How long does this profile go? It's all good. Except: where in the cyberuniverse are all the comments from the last four years???!!!!

Past Indiana Football Wins Indicate Future Success

Many writers and football pundits are predicting a last place finish for the IU football team this fall, 2009. A few are predicting no wins in the Big Ten.

I beg to differ.

Sure, Indiana has to contend with the heavies Michigan, Ohio State and Penn State (Michigan State and Minnesota are out of the 2 year rotation), and last year was a resounding 3-9 thud after a seven win bowl season back in 2007. 

But IU's football Hoosiers beat at least one Big Ten squad every year, and they have done that mostly as a losing team.

Last year they beat Northwestern 21-19, yes a slim margin, but they also lost a close one to the Spartans that could have gone the Hooisers' way at home.

Last year they finished 1-7 in the Big 10 but worse yet, 2-2

It is week nine, er---the Ninth Week of the Season.

Who is in good shape?

Obviously, number one. Props to the Ohio State University. They beat a decent Penn State squad handlely. How do you spell that?

Final score 37-17.

Who is next best? Probably Michigan. Surprising after their awful 0-2 start...Whatever happened to Appalachian State? Have they lost more than one game by now?

Oregon has acquitted itself well, like taking down USC today. (Hurrah!)

The Wolverines gave a few people some Appy Lachy hope and then buried the hapless Gophers, 34-10.

And the countdown continues...OSU---Meeechigan...Again.

Purdue handles the Northwestern Wildcats, who I now am really hating with a passion. Because they stand in the way of my Hoosiers, but more on that in a bit...

Final
