Someone show this to the team. I know they shouldn’t need extra motivation, this being a playoff game and all, but I want to see some nastiness out there, too.

The team seems to be embracing the disrespect ; I Iike their attitude

Without all the LANK crap.

Pretty sure the Bama staff will not be using a fake - AI generated X post as locker room wall material. Bama players (and staff) aren't stupid - all they'd have to do is independently go to Indiana's authorized X account to see that it's fake, and then they'd be wondering why the staff used a fake post as motivation. The real game and its planning is more than plenty motivation.

If you go to the pressers from both teams, they are without exception entirely full of respect for their opponent.

Lol

 

[Ledsteplin]

Indiana really likes putting out locker room material.

Absolutely no way that is real.

I went to their Official page and can’t find this anywhere.

Are you trying to say that a wet ball might be harder for Ryan to catch?

LOL! Didn’t want to mention him by name…..but he’s had enough trouble with footballs that were dry as the Sahara….so yeah.

I don’t know if Alabama has the stuff to do it, but this bunch needs their butts handed to them in a big way!!

 

[Isaiah 63:1]

Some do.

I don’t think we have a Pet Peeves thread on the FB board but if we did my Top 2 would be.

1) People referring to the National Championship as that word.

2) People who call CNS ‘Nick’

I can’t STAND either.

Agreed. Natty is one of two possible beers. Nick is my older daughter's husband and my younger daughter's boyfriend (happily, that's two Nicks, not one!).

That "post" does not appear on any of @IndianaFootball socials, nor does it show up in retweets. Unless they posted and deleted (given the claimed engagement, not a chance; retweets would still be there), the probability that this is fake is >> 99%...

 

[Isaiah 63:1]

Is everyone getting the same fake (deleted) on their FaceBook/Insta feed?

And have y'all not seen fake social media> Yikes.

I know you're new here and a Hoosier fan (welcome, BTW), but:

1. Read the board rules on actual or obscured profanity (if the mods haven't suspended you already).
2. Read the room. I mean, you're right that it's fake, but 12 posts in and you're already scolding us?

Of the 8 CBS Sports "Experts" picks; only 1 picked us to cover 7 point line. None to win.
We got'em right where we want them

I wonder if it was Tim Brando who picked us to cover?

No; these were "experts" picks; not :"idiots" picks

Means nothing in terms of the game, but this will be the fourth straight Alabama game that Herbstreit and Fowler are covering

One of the best things about beating teams, especially new bloods…is watching the trolls go home after…they never learn, they always come back chirping because they just don’t know any better…can’t act like you’ve been there if you haven’t ever been there…wash, rinse, repeat…
The IU’s will fall back a mid-level big16 team but we’ll get someone else coming along playing chicken hawk…it’s good to be King…living rent free everywhere…go bizon!!!

I actually feel better about this game than OU. Everyone keeps citing the SECCG as a metric to be used to determine our play. We are healthier now than we have been since Tennessee (apparently). I am hopeful that CKW has learned that throwing 3 on the line and dropping 8 does not work, since he dialed up pressure the last 3 quarters vs OU and killed OU's offense. If CRG can get the offense humming and Ty steady in the pocket and trusting the O-Line and his protections, I'm thinking we had IU their first loss by 10+ points. I'm thinking (and hoping for) a 34-20 Bama win.
