As team, you played better against Indiana.

Style of play on offense was what led to Oregon’s 30 points allowed. The defense kept Oregon in the game. Without Finney’s pick six, we lose that game by more.

I also watched Oregon put Iowa on skates and run the damn the ball all over Iowa in an atmospheric river and our top 3 pass catchers out.

I have respect for Iowa but I would choose Oregon’s defense 10/10 times.

Oregon is gonna be dangerous. Only Washington is a younger team in the Big 10 and everyone’s getting healthy.

I think you’re really downplaying those WRs

Indiana’s linebackers are really good


They are both very good units.

OSU has the best WRSin the country and two legit first rounders at LBer. May be OSUs two best position groups

Ok tell me all the position groups you would take Indiana over OSU.

There just aren’t many at all

This game is really interesting. I have more intrigue about this game than any game so far this season

Surratt and Cooper could end up very high draft picks.

This game is gonna come down to whether Sayin is for real. Indiana is so good at muddy-ing the picture and bringing pressure. If Sayin can handle it, Indian loses by 10+.

If he's not there right now, he has an entire 2026 season to cement it.

I have been on the Stroud train saying he was the best at the school ever, and I have no problems saying Sayin is right there right now to me

Cherry picking by only including their conference foes for teams that play in the same league? Oregon played two of the worst teams in the country in their OOC. Congrats for the stout D against Oregon state and Okie lite.

Okie Lites only win against UT Martin. I’m from Texas and never even heard of it. Oregon state is an abject dumpster fire.

The talent metrics (blue chip ratio/NFL prospects) aren't remotely close.Congrats to Cignetti for the job he's done but I don't see how Indiana can stay within 2TD's

They scored 16 points and had a safety gifted to them on an errant snap to get to 18 and escaped with a 2 point win. They scored 1 touchdown after putting up 260 yards on the ground. I’ve seen Iowa play that same game 50 times the last decade where some dude runs wild and they don’t score shite.

You should see what nebraskas RB did to them last week. Highest output of the season—200+ yards and over 7ypc in a 4 score loss to Iowa in which they scored 16 points.

There’s really a single stat that matters, and that’s points allowed.

Exactly. They’re meaningless games designed to rotate in backups and test young guys. Taking stats from those games is silly. It’s bad competition on all fronts.

Iowa hadn’t given up that much on the ground since 2022 and Oregon didn’t have a competent passing attack. The Iowa defense is good. That said, I’d be pissed watching Oregon give up 260 on the ground.

That officiating crew…woof.

Michigan kinda turned this on its head. That ratio becomes less important with the portal. I saw Indiana up close. That’s a really athletic team.
