Oh man Louisville didn’t even need to block in the back. Returner was already by him.

Behind you
If you've never witnessed the magic of a Kirk Ferentz team turtling up to protect a lead, get ready... lol.

I think they might beat Ohio State and play for the B1G Championship. 'Twould be something really cool actually.
I am very intrigued by that game. Ohio State is a strange team this year. But anyone discounting Indiana is a fool. Will they go on to make the CFP or win the Big 10? Who knows? But they are absolutely demolishing teams. And everyone else in the country has lost to or struggled against the same type of teams Indiana has been housing.

Clemson starting to get boat raced at home.
Hope Louisville doesn’t let up and can finish this. Clemson are a bunch of frauds. Their lopsided wins since getting absolutely embarrassed by Georgia are against absolute dog **** teams. And Louisville isn’t great by any means but they at least have a pulse.

Plus, this gives SMU a chance to play Miami (Fla.) in the ACC Championship Game which should be a fun game to watch.

I have Boise State, BYU, SMU, and Indiana in the Final 4 for College Football Playoffs. Is that what ESPN signed up for with the 12 team playoff?

Salt Lake City, UT
The loss today sucked but the games after ours have been pretty favorable for the upcoming CFP rankings:
#17 KState loses at Houston
#18 Pitt getting smoked by #21 SMU (SMU will probably jump us but we shouldn't be lower than Pitt)
#11 Clemson down big at home to unranked Louisville in the 4Q
#10 A&M down by 10 vs unranked South Carolina late in 3Q
#7 Tennessee only up 4 at home against unranked Kentucky in 3Q

CFP rankings don’t matter for ISU anymore. You either win the conference or you don’t get in. Now, it’s all up to following the conference standings and making sure you can get a chance in Dallas.

While you are right, I believe the point was that if we would have won the rest of the day set up pretty good for our rankings. With the loss none of it matters.
