Should I set up a vBet with 10,000:1 odds that he deletes that tweet by the middle of the 3rd quarter?

Alright, we're just a week out and I'm fired up now.
They know damn well we're going to be chanting O H I O in that stadium. Let's go

I remember when I took an official visit there, I looked at the overhead shot of the stadium they'd put in all their recruiting material and wondered what game could that be from? I asked and they tried to beat around the bush, but finally admitted it was against OSU. Which they hadn't played the year before. Two weeks later I went to Purdue and they were not shy to tell me that they would use the most recent Ohio State game picture every year because the stadium would actually look full.
What I'm saying is the O-H-I-O chants are going to drowned the shit out of their crowd.

I'm fairly confident that the spread gets covered (leaning towards more of a total blowout) Indiana has played Ohio State tough as of late (minus 2013) but this year I think it goes back to slaughter.
Their defense looks to be decent for Indiana standards. Offense is looking to take a step back though
They lost their workhorse RB in Redding and it looks like a largely unproven RB by committee to replace him.
They lose 3 starting OL from an oline that was already not very good last year.
WR they lose 2 receivers who caught 50+ passes. Westbrook returns, Simmie Cobbs is back after missing last year. Not much after those 2. Secondary will be able to put some focus on them. The lack of running game and rebuilding Oline certainly won't help the IU passing game though.
This with a QB who threw 17 INTs (to 19 TDs) last year.
Defense has a chance to make a dominant statement out of the gate here (be it against Indiana)

Adding on to that, the guy who made their offense go is now calling plays for the good guys.
I suppose that has a couple different parts - I mean, Wilson knows the particular skill sets of all the offensive players and I would figure is not foreclosed from tipping off Greg Shiano and company of the same. Likewise, pretty sure Wilson is familiar with Indiana's particular weaknesses on the defensive side of the ball and how to exploit them.
I think this one gets ugly quick. I'm talking turn of last century ugly. Like 84-0 ugly.
OTOH, I could just be too fucking giddy. lol.

See I think the same thing and find it adorable that the media feels their offense will be better or just as good as last year. As you said, 3 lost Lineman, their best RB, and more important they lost Paige the WR last year that we couldn't cover.
You add that with a turnover prone QB and the single largest reason they gave us fits (having Kevin) and I like OSU big too the more we get closer to next week.
I thought like 38 to 24 earlier but now after remembering they lose some key cogs in the OL I think it may be more like 41 to 13

They were 56th in the country in total offense last year. So even if it is "just as good" as last year. It's along the lines of mediocre. Lagow was 14/28 with an INT and they ran for 99 yards on 40 rushes against Ohio State last year. We were just never able to really break the game open to a level of total domination.
They don't have a real dynamic threat like they did in 14/15 (Tevin Coleman/Zander Diamont in 14 and Zander Diamont in 15) and having no running game yet to speak of this could end up a brutal game for Lagow with the defense pinning their ears back after him. Westbrook and Cobbs are certainly more than capable WRs, but that's useless if Lagow is having to rush to get the ball out and on his back a good amount of the time.
If the offense is gelling this gets out of hand. Like the 56-7 lots of backup play in the 2nd half kind of out of hand.

Hey you have to enjoy this time right now... before you know it when the gold confetti has stopped raining we will be saying damn when does spring ball start?
Besides got a few nice match ups tomorrow to at least kill time, NFL games tonight and all weekend too. Hell we will only be football-less on Tuesday and Wednesday until our gameday
Another thing I think isn't being talked about enough too is the fact that we are used to played under the lights with the nation watching. They aren't. That will also have an impact I think.
