38-17 IU.
Thank you for reading Hoosier Huddle
Tucker is going to have a monster game this week that gets everyone talking about the IU D-line next week.
I hope Tucker is on this week's towel.
TE's and some of the second or third read underneath routes get a lot of love this week.
Marsh gets a stop and go uncontested TD as the DBs jock strap gets left on the field 10 yards from the LOS.
IU comes out with their hair on fire to set the tone and tempo of the game early.
Haines and the D will exhibit the cohesion to snuff out the gimmick NW offense.

That's a lot for NW. IU hasn't given up more than 24 in 18 games................

What I'd like to see is for the throws that went to Nowakowski last year, go to Turbo, because of the promise he's shown as a receiver. Simplify the TE role to mostly blocking for now, since that seems to be the priority. I'll take 3-4 receptions by Turbo per game and improved blocking from our TEs. I know throwing to RB's hasn't been a big part of our offense, but let's take advantage of the promise he's shown.

I can see why it might be hard to have Turbo be the primary receiver when you have Becker, Marsh, Chandler & Morris as options.....would like to see him get the ball 3-4 times per game on check-downs, screens and the like.

The odds of this actually happening have to be astronomical, so if I get This one right I intend to go on a gambling binge… 😎
This score was on the board for awhile...

Closest on the final point differential.
Kinda feels like no one quite got it.
I saw their injury list and predicted close at half with a gradual wear down in the second half.
And Beebe over 200 yards and Turbo adding almost 70, rush was 270 to 32 . Show me those stats ahead of time it looks like a big win.
But wear down over the second half...?! That was when they started tearing us a new asshole with their passing game.
But, we locked it down.
