Thanks for gifting us the article @gros-louis

Cig is a boss

“In the game day meeting at the hotel, he was like, I don’t want to do any trick plays, weird stuff,” said Owings. “I want to line up and beat the shit out of them. In the second half, we started bullying those guys, and when Bama had given up, it was, I don’t really want to pass anymore. I want to run it down their throat and make a statement.”

The sack adjusted rushing stats for IU vs Bama say it all.  

 

44:Rushes

243:Yards

5.5 ypc

 

 

Domination!

The sack ...(etc)

Every time I read or hear those words now I think the next part will be about Cig's swagger.
