Hot take: Indiana has played nobody good (knock on wood) and is one of those teams that is just really good at running up the score on ******* opponents.
FIU, who is 2-5 with losses to UTEP and Monmouth
Western Illinois, who is a 3-4 FCS team
UCLA, 2-5 with 3-pt wins over Hawaii and Rutgers
Charlotte, who is 3-4 with a 51-17 loss to Navy
Maryland, who is 4-3 with a 37-10 loss to Northwestern
Northwestern, who is 3-4 and scored in single digits in losses to Washington and Wisconsin
Nebraska, whose wins are UTEP, Colorado, UNI, Purdue, and Rutgers.
I don't think Indiana is actually that good, they've just played a terrible schedule and this is 2020 all over again.
We ran 99 plays, had over 500 yards of offense, and scored 38 points. Not exactly exposed. UCF tried something and it didn’t work.
Doubt I'm correct on what? Jackson played last night. He wasn't good. It's pretty straightforward.
We haven't used any short stuff to Noel that has been a staple (for better or worse) the last 3 seasons. I'd expect to see us add a few swing passes, screen passes to the RBs, and shallower slants if we run into that again. We've been good at protecting Rocco, so hopefully that returns the rest of the season. Black at guard was especially bad last night in pass protection.
Guess I'm one of the lucky ones where my best friend does cheer for ISU when they're not up against Iowa and is genuinely happy for me right now.
Those were horrible! I remember on one thinking OK, 99% of refs would call unnecessary roughness right there. But you, dude, you are that one!
What CMC said last night specifically about Hansen: ~ Carsen was dinged up coming into the game, we were worried about his health and after a couple carries he just physically couldn't do it anymore.
Also said Abu isn't 100% healthy.
Hansen looked pretty damn good in the first quarter! Sometimes it's hard to tell who is laboring though.

While I’m thinking about it, how was there not an ineligible man downfield penalty when UCF had not one but two different linemen 20 yards downfield? Did the pass not get past the LOS? Couldn’t tell at the game
I'm pretty sure they announced ineligible man down field doesn't apply on a legal throw away out of bounds.
There's a first time for everything For me. I sit on the aisle in row ten of the upper deck. Right above the walkway opening. It’s a regular thing for people to walk down to the railing and then stop to watch a play not realizing they are blocking the view of a bunch of folks behind them. We always very politely say something about squatting down or to keep moving. People always apologize and do exactly that.
last night we had a big, intoxicated guy standing there and when asked to move he stood there, watched the play and then snidely said it’s a punt you don’t need to see it And continued to stand there. More people spoke up and asked him to move along. He turned and saw me as I was a little more blunt telling him to keep moving. He continued to be belligerent and walked down the steps before turning around and coming back up to tower over me, getting in my face and asking if I had a problem. I told him no, that he needed to leave. He continued to stare at me (I just ignored him) before talking a swipe at me and knocking my hat off and then triumphantly walking off. Talk about a total douche.
What also didn’t help is that ISU no longer has any security in the stands at the stadium. If it had escalated there would be zero help without someone going down in search of a cop or something.

In an era where the ACC is paving Miami's way to the CFP, the Big 12 is actively putting up construction barricades for ISU.
Exactly. It's a cliche in college football. They ain't played nobody. The reality is every good team has 1-3 season defining games on the schedule while beating a bunch of bad teams. It's simple math. That's what makes it historically one of the most difficult sports to assess given how many teams are at the same level, the unbalanced schedules, and no postseason tournament.
They dared Rocco to run and locked everything else down. Don’t blame them as he hasn’t shown anything close to what he did last night. Always knew he was athletic enough to run like we just saw. Future opponents will think twice about running the UCF game plan.
