The disrespect is real.
Unreal. I guess we'll just have to win it all!
Yea. Frankly the “Allstate Playoff Predictor” is just some made up algorithm.
For what it’s worth, in the world of betting we have the 25th best odds right now to make the playoff — +500 (implies 16.6% chance). That’s a better read on our chances in my opinion.
Good bulletin board material. 100% Cig was happy to see that and will use it to his advantage.
Doesn't surprise me. As I've said , we won't get respect until we've earned it. One year doesn't make up for 35 years of blunder
I'm guessing they don't think we can beat Illinois, Oregon, UCLA, etc.
best thing to do is prove them wrong. We won't surprise anyone this year or be taken lightly. Let's see how the boys and Cig react to that pressure. Look forward to proving them wrong.
ESPN is just the SEC propaganda machine. The more they build up the SEC the more top ranked teams are shown on their limited format. It's all done to boost ESPN ratings.
BEAT PURDUE
ESPN doesn't cover the B1G well because they choose not to. I try not to watch. Go Hoosiers!
intentional effort to force IU as far down the rankings as possible to start the season. They’ll have to beat the hell out of everyone early (including Illinois) to move up at all.
On a related note, does anyone think that fat—- Bielema is going to intimidate Cig like he has other IU coaches over the years? 83-20 ring a bell? I’d love a Bison Beatdown on that pompous jack wagon.
The Hoosier, the Bison will tire with repeated pushups.
Agree that this is great bulletin board material and feeds into the “stay hungry and humble” with this years mantra. But I gotta believe that behind closed doors, CC is giving them an earful…..love to see a 3rd qtr sub for “Hoosier the Bison” due to fatigue
The disrespect is real.
Heather Dinich hates her alma mater. That SEC/ESPN money must be good. Curious how Nebraska, Va Tech,and Kansas got on this list. Indiana and Illinois are 2 glaring omissions from this list.
@pazhoosier Yes. She is bad — one of those ESPN people you can tell sold their soul for their career at the mothership.
Fortunately, there is no reason to care what she thinks — she’s just another random opinion with no unique football knowledge.
So they think Indiana has a difficult schedule. Noted.
Would anyone care to post the text of the article so that I don't give that worthless witch any clicks on her article?

Intimidated coaches? I don't think there was any intimidation. He just beat the hell out of us.
