After this game do we get Cignetti post game presser about the schedule? I think the SEC/BIG10 scheduling agreement is coming so... Cignetti's position is every BIG10 team should play a G5 and FCS opponent along with an SEC/power 4 game. But he stokes the flame by saying not only should we playing G5/FCS opponents they should get a % of the playoff $ to help fund their programs. The villain becomes the hero. The champion of the little guy.
It does seem like "multiplicity" is the word for 2025 at IU?
I love what Wheeler and so many guys can do in playing both DE and DT, or DE and LB, or LB and safety. You've done a great job of making us all aware of the looks that IU can confuse a QB with.
But also when the IU offense gets into those tough 3rd down situations against Penn State and Oregon, IU now has a true running threat in its RPO attack. Knowles can't just tell his LBs to meet 5 yards in the backfield and expect to find the QB there this year. With Mendoza, the true potential of the RPO is there. With Staes and Bond both in the slot, the defense is even more confused.
It does seem like IU has the diversity of personnel to make opposing OCs and Des act reactively, rather than attempting to push their own strengths.
I can’t wait. With television issues a possibility I got a ticket and am headed down

Advantage IU all game long.
