50+ Point Conference Wins

From ESPN.  

 

Indiana is the first Power 4 school with two 50-point conference wins in a single season since Clemson in 2018, according to ESPN Research.

 

I believe there's optimistically a good chance to collect 2 more.  Wonder who was the last super team to collect four 50+ point conference wins?

First game I went to as a kid we played Nebraska. Cold rainy day and we got beat by 50+ IIRC. Still stayed to the end. Nice to finally be on the other side of those sorts of games.

Wisconsin and Purdue are officially on 50-point ass-kicking notice.

@gthomas Wisconsin has a pretty good DL and run D, I would be surprised if we dropped 50+ points on them. Less likely our 2nd/3rd string will be able to just roll them over like we did Illinois and UCLA. The reason Wisconsin is terrible is because they probably have the worst offense in FBS, good shutout candidate

Isn't their QB a total failure? Isn't that the bottom line?

I was at the Indiana Ohio State game in 1983 as a student. I remember Keith Byars running for about 500 yards, but box score says only 169 yards. We couldn't stop him.

56 - 17. I think the idiot Wyche yelled at them for running up the score. Pretty sure Byars was still running it in the 4th .
