One of the things that made the offensive performance the first time around especially impressive was the fact that IU had to overcome 7 (!) pre-snap penalties -- six false starts and one delay of game. I'm expecting to see that go away tomorrow.
Wow, Oregon had the worst game. Too many big and little things happened and they couldn’t handle it. I think injuries and travel fatigue for the players was part of it. Coaches distracted with new jobs didn’t help. IU’s ability to maintain their routine and focus is crucial. One more game to go.

Wasn't Mendoza sacked on the first play of the game against Alabama?
Also the first play of the last drive against Penn State.

I’m wondering if your new employer is either an IU fan or a football fan. Putting this analysis together is impressive! Thanks.
So what is your prediction in terms of who wins the game?
