I have been going back through some ESPN, Game Day, Fox Sports, etc YouTibe clips enjoying how every week these talking heads would say something like " well Indiana won again but they haven't traveled across country yet and met a good west coast challenge like UCLA". Then the next week it would be "UCLA was not the UCLA of old, wait until Indiana plays a defense like Nebraska". Then the next week "Nebraska's QB was young wait until the Hoosiers see this Washington QB then we'll see what Indiana is made of". For weeks and weeks this dribble continued and not once did the majority of the talking heads admit they just under estimated what was happening at IU and could not justify that Indiana could be that good. Fun viewing. I highly recommend it.
BEAT PURDUE
I am expecting a replay of that again.
...enjoying how every week these talking heads would say something like ” well Indiana won again but they haven’t traveled across country yet and met a good west coast challenge like UCLA”.

Then the next week “Nebraska’s QB was young wait until the Hoosiers see this Washington QB then we’ll see what Indiana is made of”.
That was understandable early on. We're Indiana, after all. But that shit needed to stop after Nebraska. You don't put a beatdown like that on any B1G team and not be legit good.
