Transcript
- 0:07[SPEAKER_02]: Welcome back to the Central Indiana Sports Report, IU fans, after the biggest win in IU football history.
- 0:14[SPEAKER_02]: 30 to 20 over number three, Oregon in Eugene, unbelievable Grant, take it away.
- 0:22[SPEAKER_03]: The biggest thing is here now is, what are they gonna say now?
- 0:26[SPEAKER_03]: It feels like we've been waiting on this.
- 0:28[SPEAKER_03]: It feels like we've been waiting on this ever since they got ever since Indiana started to become legit last year.
- 0:36[SPEAKER_03]: Indiana was legit last year.
- 0:39[SPEAKER_03]: And everybody was like, oh, they're gonna fall off.
- 0:42[SPEAKER_03]: It's a one-hit wonder.
- 0:44[SPEAKER_03]: Now it's official.
- 0:45[SPEAKER_03]: They've proven everyone wrong.
- 0:47[SPEAKER_03]: I can't help but feel like that there's some tears to joy today.
- 0:52[SPEAKER_03]: You guys may have seen some cool in the anime moments, because you guys are obviously not all over the me.
- 0:57[SPEAKER_03]: You probably see some cool ones, but today, today was the best, maybe I use sports moment, and including all sports of my life today.
- 1:09[SPEAKER_03]: I'm so happy, I always say never satisfied, you can't be satisfied in this business, you can't be satisfied.
- 1:17[SPEAKER_03]: If you want to go win a championship, then tonight I think there's going to be a party tonight to celebrate, and this is just, again, I mean it's unbelievable.
- 1:30[SPEAKER_01]: I asked Grant before the show, if I could just come on here and say hell, yeah, for 20 minutes straight and how that would translate to podcast, I made a promise to them where I wouldn't do that, but I really, really want to.
- 1:44[SPEAKER_02]: Yes, it sounds like the right plan because it's unreal.
- 1:50[SPEAKER_01]: What do you say?
- 1:51[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, and being one hundred percent honest here,
- 1:56[SPEAKER_01]: Indiana one, and it's easy to say now, but I kind of feel like Indiana just dominated Oregon today.
- 2:03[SPEAKER_01]: There's one touchdown in Austin, other than the picks fix, they absolutely did nothing in the second half of that game, and Indiana was the better team, and a game at Austin Stadium again, Oregon.
- 2:22[SPEAKER_01]: Which death taxes and Indiana at Austin, and that's about automatic as it comes, as all good football podcasts are prone to do I'm going to make I've legally blonde reference here.
- 2:35[SPEAKER_01]: What you went up to Austin stadium and one is what is that hard?
- 2:39[SPEAKER_01]: That's kind of the meme where you see Reese with her spoon and say what is that supposed to be hard?
- 2:44[SPEAKER_01]: That's supposed to be difficult guys.
- 2:48[SPEAKER_03]: it wasn't difficult today.
- 2:50[SPEAKER_03]: We kind of had the prediction there, right, that if Indiana could keep it close, do you feel like that could maybe wait some, I think, smart football people up it?
- 3:01[SPEAKER_03]: It's definitely not going to wake up the kind of the people that are just the casuals that want to hop on the narrative that Indiana was never very good.
- 3:10[SPEAKER_03]: You didn't, I mean, thought
- 3:14[SPEAKER_03]: I thought I thought it'd be a low scoring game.
- 3:18[SPEAKER_03]: Greg, you said you thought it'd be a low scoring game.
- 3:21[SPEAKER_03]: And it was for a while.
- 3:22[SPEAKER_03]: That was a big 10 football game right there.
- 3:24[SPEAKER_03]: Five every scene one.
- 3:25[SPEAKER_03]: Look at me, fences.
- 3:27[SPEAKER_03]: Two great defensive.
- 3:28[SPEAKER_03]: Those were the two best defenses in the country.
- 3:31[SPEAKER_03]: And again, I'm telling you right now.
- 3:34[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
- 3:43[SPEAKER_03]: Again, you, you shut everyone up today, which is the best thing about this.
- 3:48[SPEAKER_03]: It's not that they won because they're six and out of, they've won five other times before this, so you can enjoy a win.
- 3:55[SPEAKER_03]: And this is, I mean, but this is different.
- 3:59[SPEAKER_03]: You be of, are they a blue blood organ?
- 4:04[SPEAKER_01]: Not a blue blood in the traditional sense, because their history kind of only dates back to late 90s, early 2000s.
- 4:13[SPEAKER_01]: of dominance, but there's certainly one of the premier college football programs of this millennium.
- 4:19[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.
- 4:19[SPEAKER_01]: There's zero question about that.
- 4:21[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, there are top five of this past 25 years, I would say.
- 4:26[SPEAKER_03]: And this is something that I just thought of as you were saying that is that everybody picked against Indiana on every national television thing today, except for one guy, and it's the one guy that I think actually knows what the hell he's talking about in Pat
- 4:42[SPEAKER_01]: or the guy smart enough to marry an Indiana girl.
- 4:45[SPEAKER_02]: Yep, because that was his whole reason for for picking them to hit and said, by the way, I said earlier this week, I thought the national championship would end with Dan Landing, voiced in the trophy, and it's still might, but that's how good I think they are.
- 5:00[SPEAKER_02]: You to answer your question, Grant.
- 5:02[SPEAKER_03]: They're good.
- 5:03[SPEAKER_03]: I'm there big, right?
- 5:06[SPEAKER_03]: And you could kind of see there at the start of the second half I text Mike and like you could see the adjustment organ made in the second half is that they were going to tighten up their bring pressure more.
- 5:17[SPEAKER_03]: Indiana's offensive line is good and I think and they stepped up big especially in the fourth quarter but I almost feel like compared to Oregon they're they're tiny like they are some tiny they're smaller offensive line compared to Oregon's Indiana next year this is my this is not necessarily a complaint but I think an observation is next year Indiana needs about five Pat Cougans on the line
- 5:46[SPEAKER_03]: And that's not a, that's not a complaint.
- 5:48[SPEAKER_03]: Think about it.
- 5:49[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, they're bitching about the whole life.
- 5:50[SPEAKER_03]: I want no, I don't care.
- 5:52[SPEAKER_03]: Um, any of them.
- 5:54[SPEAKER_03]: No, no, no.
- 5:55[SPEAKER_03]: And I won't bitch about anything as long as they just win.
- 5:59[SPEAKER_03]: Just continue to win.
- 6:00[SPEAKER_03]: You, you've done what you needed to do.
- 6:02[SPEAKER_03]: You proved it.
- 6:03[SPEAKER_03]: Um, we predicted what 11 and 1, 10 and 2 with Penn State losing a day.
- 6:11[SPEAKER_03]: We don't want to
- 6:13[SPEAKER_01]: should be made to start, I'm not going to say, remember the game grant with all our cards with all our carded off the field today.
- 6:21[SPEAKER_01]: Let's yeah, let's consider that as well.
- 6:26[SPEAKER_01]: So all the men and all the men and gets doubled up by Marshall by the way, but for bad news on the Indiana, all the men lost more.
- 6:36[SPEAKER_01]: They lost 48 24 year kidding.
- 6:40[SPEAKER_03]: Wow, I I've tuned out pretty much all of college football except for that one Do it the entire afternoon Yeah, I saw the in-state score come across the wire.
- 6:51[SPEAKER_02]: I was like, oh, I kind of forgot there were other games going on Yep, I'm paying as much attention to that as this Pacer's preseason game right now
- 7:04[SPEAKER_03]: Exactly, didn't even know it was going on and it popped up on my feed that they lost and this just in right now drew Aller from Penn State is now suffered as season ending injury against the Northwestern.
- 7:15[SPEAKER_01]: He will be out for the rest of the year that just came across as you're talking So I texted my pencil by in your Friends and says at least you have three rivers to choose from and Pittsburgh to throw James Franklin into
- 7:36[SPEAKER_03]: Now you can't have a hangover next week.
- 7:39[SPEAKER_03]: Can't be hung over.
- 7:41[SPEAKER_03]: It's Michigan State homecoming.
- 7:43[SPEAKER_03]: I'm telling you right now, that may be the most expensive ticket in IE football history now.
- 7:49[SPEAKER_03]: You just beat number three on the road.
- 7:51[SPEAKER_03]: There's no way to it.
- 7:53[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, it is.
- 7:54[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.
- 7:54[SPEAKER_01]: Grants.
- 7:55[SPEAKER_01]: They have a showdown coming in two weeks with revived reanimated corpse of UCLA football, baby.
- 8:03[SPEAKER_01]: How bad is the shot in foster man?
- 8:08[SPEAKER_01]: That's going to be the game day game in two weeks at this rate.
- 8:11[SPEAKER_03]: Could you I actually would not be shot.
- 8:14[SPEAKER_03]: I'm serious.
- 8:15[SPEAKER_03]: I wouldn't be shot.
- 8:17[SPEAKER_03]: We'll see.
- 8:19[SPEAKER_03]: Not yet.
- 8:20[SPEAKER_01]: I've been to game analysis.
- 8:22[SPEAKER_01]: I'm just going to bask in it because 83 point game and in Madison, I sat through for the gator bowl I watched.
- 8:32[SPEAKER_01]: That's right for the bucket game that they actually ended up winning, but it was like 14 people against Purdue in like 2000 in a just day lose of rain.
- 8:44[SPEAKER_01]: For all these moments that I've sat and watched this football team,
- 8:48[SPEAKER_01]: They just went like the number three team in the country, and they were the better team on the field.
- 8:54[SPEAKER_03]: And you think about the, um, the lost Ole Miss and 20, 20 in the ball, uh, you think about when they, that you think about the pinstripe ball at Yankee Stadium against Duke, think about the lowest of low moments, even the low moments of beating, even again, even though they won, beating Akron.
- 9:16[SPEAKER_03]: think about that.
- 9:19[SPEAKER_03]: Think about how long this program has come from celebrating a win that you get made fun of on social media for beating F and Akron in four over times.
- 9:31[SPEAKER_03]: And you just went on the road two years later, mind you, that was two years ago, it seems like a lifetime ago, sorry.
- 9:38[SPEAKER_03]: The number three team in that F in country, guys, and that's all the reason I'm sorry.
- 9:48[SPEAKER_01]: One post game highlight, Elijah Sarat calling out the city of Bloomington's chamber of commerce for not having a waffle house in the city limits, he said, we'd be celebrating at a waffle house tonight if we had one in Bloomington and this dead band to the camera.
- 10:03[SPEAKER_01]: It's like, come to Scott's bird waffle house.
- 10:05[SPEAKER_01]: You want to see some things?
- 10:07[SPEAKER_01]: that the walls of the Scottsburg waffle house have seen some things man again.
- 10:14[SPEAKER_02]: We'll be talking about stats and strategy and coaching and all that on the IU report later this week.
- 10:22[SPEAKER_02]: This moment is just for talking about how absurd this is.
- 10:28[SPEAKER_01]: I want to just individual players.
- 10:30[SPEAKER_01]: You can shout out everybody almost at some point or another, but Isaiah Jones,
- 10:36[SPEAKER_01]: This kid's kind of come out of nowhere and he's a force, uh, an absolute force at this point.
- 10:42[SPEAKER_01]: Uh, have to have him on the field.
- 10:44[SPEAKER_01]: Indiana, one of the few teams in the country that placed three linebackers, regardless of who they're playing, because you have to have Aiden Fisher, you have to have Isaiah Jones, and you have to have the third linebacker out there.
- 10:56[SPEAKER_01]: And.
- 10:57[SPEAKER_01]: Kellon Wyatt, look like he got injured, maybe seriously injured in the first quarter of that game.
- 11:05[SPEAKER_01]: I texted Grant as like, I saw that as it happened, it didn't look good.
- 11:09[SPEAKER_01]: And he comes back, he makes key plays.
- 11:13[SPEAKER_01]: And the Kail Kamara, we're going to give him into the drama department sometime this week because he's got to learn to do the arm flail.
- 11:21[SPEAKER_01]: when he's being obviously held by an offensive lineman because it happens every play he's got to learn over dramatize the that play and then the angel opons there were some organs to my talk is like we're gonna participate in the in a fans have been kind of cool this week so we're actually going to pretend the angel opons is good i think the angel opons is pretty freaking good yes when you see them on that stage uh... at the NFL draft i
- 11:45[SPEAKER_01]: I think that's going to be a reminder, but I think you got a first hand look at just how good that kid actually is today.
- 11:51[SPEAKER_01]: Because Oregon had one play made down the field, and that was a bus that got a bunch.
- 11:58[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that was a bus to coverage by Mari Ferrell.
- 12:00[SPEAKER_01]: Same thank you.
- 12:01[SPEAKER_01]: It's Alan Owing.
- 12:02[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 12:04[SPEAKER_01]: My son said after the game, we'll give up one big touchdown
- 12:12[SPEAKER_03]: Here's how I looked at it is, think about last year and all the guys that said they were coming back like Ponds, Rat, Fisher, Kamara, all those guys that came back a couple guys on the line, just think about all the guys that returned from last year.
- 12:28[SPEAKER_03]: They came back to Indiana because of today.
- 12:33[SPEAKER_03]: think about like that.
- 12:35[SPEAKER_03]: They came back to play it Indiana today or this year because of games like today because they felt like they could win games like today and I think you get a chip on your shoulder.
- 12:45[SPEAKER_03]: We've heard six say it a lot of times that they operate best and they got a chip on their shoulder.
- 12:51[SPEAKER_03]: And now, aside from all the other stuff, signetti's done everywhere else, this is the biggest win in his career out of any stop, right?
- 13:03[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, I know it's a national championship at JMU and the FCS, but like, a TFCS, come on.
- 13:11[SPEAKER_01]: there's zero question and he even agreed to that.
- 13:14[SPEAKER_01]: I think he was borderline.
- 13:17[SPEAKER_01]: I was watching a lot of CBS before I jumped on here borderline emotional.
- 13:22[SPEAKER_02]: You know, as a mobile, he actually gives users anger, but there's a spread in the country by any team this year right now.
- 13:30[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, that's right.
- 13:31[SPEAKER_01]: It's up there.
- 13:32[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, A and N going in a Notre Dame was a good one.
- 13:35[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 13:37[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 13:37[SPEAKER_01]: This is this was a proof at game and they went beyond proven it.
- 13:43[SPEAKER_01]: Nobody can say a single thing about the preseason schedule about who they played, who they beaten, how they played in any team, nothing matters.
- 13:52[SPEAKER_01]: Even
- 13:55[SPEAKER_01]: most of noxious what hater of programs in the country in college football who has been very outspoken about how he thinks in the end is a fraud and coach's dignity goes into big games and plays don't hurt me football rather than try to win he came out today he's like guys i'm dead as wrong about it in the end of football and to get that out of brain and walker
- 14:18[SPEAKER_01]: It's a pretty big knee, a culpa, a because he's doing it.
- 14:21[SPEAKER_02]: And it was watched the last couple years.
- 14:24[SPEAKER_02]: It's obvious, it jumps right out at you that he's the best coach in the country.
- 14:30[SPEAKER_01]: Tyler Nevada, you waiter, he's definitely there.
- 14:33[SPEAKER_01]: I'm a huge landing fan.
- 14:35[SPEAKER_01]: I thought maybe he was the,
- 14:38[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, he taught me how to do him landing.
- 14:40[SPEAKER_01]: Shayna Han, a guy I've bitched about in big games for a full today.
- 14:44[SPEAKER_03]: He was good today.
- 14:45[SPEAKER_03]: Mike, that was one of my biggest concerns coming in was if the play calling was how it would be against Iowa then they had no shot.
- 14:58[SPEAKER_02]: It should be third.
- 15:00[SPEAKER_02]: It should be Ohio State Miami, are you?
- 15:02[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, you would think,
- 15:05[SPEAKER_01]: I'm trying to think of who 4th and 5th are right now all this one, and hey, I'm not baiting themselves in glory against Washington state, and hey, and I'm playing tech Florida right now.
- 15:20[SPEAKER_01]: They're leading 14 to 7.
- 15:22[SPEAKER_01]: They trailed early.
- 15:24[SPEAKER_01]: We'll see all those things shake out and it's purely going to be because of numbers going into that game.
- 15:30[SPEAKER_01]: If any and it isn't
- 15:34[SPEAKER_01]: It doesn't mean Murphy releases this poll tomorrow in Indiana's 19th.
- 15:37[SPEAKER_03]: It started to become a thing there when I was watching this game on weather, not like.
- 15:47[SPEAKER_03]: I think it became evident there in the third quarter when they went up when they went up 20 to 13.
- 15:54[SPEAKER_03]: I kind of thought to myself, I'm not sure I see a scenario where Indiganda loses this game right now.
- 16:04[SPEAKER_02]: I told producers to use it after the interception return I used going to win this game.
- 16:08[SPEAKER_02]: That's how confident I was that they were just better.
- 16:10[SPEAKER_02]: And I texted Grant, when are losing this game you've proven you're the best three, four teams in the country and you're no doubt about it.
- 16:18[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, you can hang with anyone.
- 16:20[SPEAKER_02]: Maybe Ohio State the exception.
- 16:22[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.
- 16:23[SPEAKER_01]: But the years of Indiana footprint Grant got a brief reminder of the years of Indiana football
- 16:32[SPEAKER_01]: when you're up to 20 to 13 and the crowd is completely out of the game, and in the end of the minute football, the gods woke up just long enough to be like, oh yeah, we're going to have to remind you, you're in the right six here.
- 16:44[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, there's a horrible pass, horrible pass.
- 16:48[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, probably the worst.
- 16:49[SPEAKER_01]: That's terrible.
- 16:52[SPEAKER_01]: terrible decision back foot throw and that's you know my poor dog he's going to be having like non-like flashbacks because he can't survive me being loud and Indian football does not bring out the best in me sometimes so
- 17:10[SPEAKER_01]: he's been hiding in the office for about since the picks and he hasn't come out and read sucks baseball and the city of Philadelphia had to die Thursday night so that Indiana football could fly today.
- 17:23[SPEAKER_03]: So we'll take it.
- 17:26[SPEAKER_03]: Last night I'm watching the tigers and just a back and out of battle game battle of the game there where looked like
- 17:39[SPEAKER_03]: I told my dad right after the game.
- 17:42[SPEAKER_03]: I'll take that right there.
- 17:43[SPEAKER_03]: I don't even care as long as Indiana wins tomorrow.
- 17:47[SPEAKER_03]: And so someone, some, some, all mighty power must have heard me and was like, okay, there you go.
- 17:55[SPEAKER_03]: Trade that one, give me a day, man.
- 17:57[SPEAKER_02]: Trade it all day, baby.
- 18:00[SPEAKER_02]: You'd like the tigers, you love the losers.
- 18:02[SPEAKER_03]: Like the tigers, love the hooves, it's a great way of putting it.
- 18:09[SPEAKER_01]: We've had to sacrifice an entire basketball program to get a season like this out of football, so I'm not complaining.
- 18:17[SPEAKER_01]: The least signities make it worth it.
- 18:19[SPEAKER_01]: In Grant your scenario, I don't want to jinx it, but it's completely in play now.
- 18:25[SPEAKER_01]: Indiana plays Louisville on December 6th at Gainbridge in the big 10 championship game as at Lucas a little that night.
- 18:32[SPEAKER_02]: Yep.
- 18:33[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, when you said that I thought that was crazy and now I can't see a scenario where they're not in it.
- 18:40[SPEAKER_01]: as as I've heard said some people say there's opportunities for them to trip on their dick at some point even if they do I still think they're going to end up in the big ten championships you've got they do have the head to head with the organ now that's huge I didn't see what Nebraska's got the cake walks in the last one they ended up winning so they may come out of the season with one big with one big ten loss
- 19:07[SPEAKER_01]: And they've got a Ohio state.
- 19:09[SPEAKER_03]: So you got a high state, you got to help Ohio state can trip up against Michigan again, out if you wanted to be Ohio state in Indiana.
- 19:18[SPEAKER_02]: That's what I'm saying Ohio state's going to go unbeaten.
- 19:21[SPEAKER_02]: They're going to be one of the pool.
- 19:23[SPEAKER_02]: And I don't see a way that Indiana is not going to be the other one, especially with the tiebreaker over Oregon.
- 19:31[SPEAKER_01]: I'll say one thing about the schedule is some games that we were taking for granted have gotten a little trickier than I thought they were going to be.
- 19:38[SPEAKER_01]: That's it.
- 19:38[SPEAKER_01]: I was thinking about that earlier today, Northwestern and let's play Northwestern.
- 19:43[SPEAKER_01]: Mad, UCLA is all of a sudden a juggernaut and then Maryland.
- 19:50[SPEAKER_01]: I, oh, that's right.
- 19:52[SPEAKER_02]: It was Maryland, Northwestern.
- 19:54[SPEAKER_01]: They keep and that's a road game.
- 19:56[SPEAKER_01]: So they keep.
- 19:57[SPEAKER_01]: Figuring out ways to win Mike Locksy, he always gets talent there, he's rarely coached it, but he gets talent there, and maybe he's figured something out.
- 20:08[SPEAKER_01]: You know what, Purdue, it's cute, you just scored a touchdown against Minnesota.
- 20:12[SPEAKER_01]: That's a door.
- 20:13[SPEAKER_01]: Texas win on this game guaranteed.
- 20:16[SPEAKER_01]: Your season's holding on like Devon Machabies hairline, that's cute.
- 20:20[SPEAKER_01]: You go up there and you, you row that boat against Minnesota, buddy.
- 20:24[SPEAKER_01]: That's a neat little win if you get it today.
- 20:27[SPEAKER_01]: Hey, what in that long goes, I, you sit the same thing, man.
- 20:32[SPEAKER_01]: Merry Lamar, man.
- 20:33[SPEAKER_01]: Merry Lamar, man.
- 20:40[SPEAKER_01]: Hey B.P.F.
- 20:40[SPEAKER_01]: and Oregon Ducks today, guys.
- 20:44[SPEAKER_01]: And there's Mike's politically incorrect statement of the podcast.
- 20:47[SPEAKER_01]: We've got to get it in.
- 20:48[SPEAKER_01]: Discard Signetti hate children.
- 20:53[SPEAKER_01]: He made the kids and Iowa unhappy.
- 20:56[SPEAKER_01]: And now the kids who are building Phil Knight shoes are going to have to work a few extra hours.
- 21:02[SPEAKER_01]: because they're all the Nike people are going to be pissed off about what happened today.
- 21:07[SPEAKER_01]: So those poor kids who are building those Jordan's their ship.
- 21:11[SPEAKER_01]: Their ships just went in x-ray hours now.
- 21:15[SPEAKER_03]: Oh man, Cody's pissed off too, man.
- 21:20[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, man.
- 21:22[SPEAKER_01]: What's he going to say now?
- 21:29[SPEAKER_01]: Or can never beat anybody.
- 21:32[SPEAKER_01]: Brandy, you think my theory might have a little bit of legs.
- 21:35[SPEAKER_01]: Do you think Dante Moore was a little dinged up after that play where he was limping, coming off the field?
- 21:42[SPEAKER_01]: Absolutely, he was not the same player afterwards.
- 21:47[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, he just seemed a little late with his throws and he's body language completely changed after that.
- 21:55[SPEAKER_01]: So I am a little curious to find out if something happened on that play because that seemed to be the the the pivotal moment in the game was the after that drive well that'll be everybody's excuse then is if he's out and he's hurt.
- 22:13[SPEAKER_03]: And has to miss time that they owe will Dante more played hurt in that game if he was hurt and Oregon would have won that'll be everybody's excuse not answering.
- 22:27[SPEAKER_02]: We're going to be talking about all of this again later this week.
- 22:30[SPEAKER_02]: I think Wednesday morning, maybe Tuesday night on the iU report grant Mike final thoughts.
- 22:39[SPEAKER_03]: What can we say here that's sorry, not being covered?
- 22:42[SPEAKER_03]: Indiana went on the road 2000 miles from home beat the crap, maybe not the crap, but beat a pretty good team and I thought really played well in some spurts and it almost looked like for a minute there in the first half when Oregon was feeding off the crowd and everything kind of getting home, Indiana sacked for Nando.
- 23:03[SPEAKER_03]: one time there in the first half that you know it's a look like a high state again from last year in Indiana shut I think Indiana kind of shut their own people up a little bit when they started having those thoughts because let's face it we may not say it but at some point or another Indiana fans are thinking worst case scenario at some point or another before during you know before or during the game not after now but
- 23:30[SPEAKER_03]: it's a to momentum shifting wind for the program.
- 23:34[SPEAKER_03]: It's the biggest wind in program history.
- 23:36[SPEAKER_03]: I cannot believe I'm saying that.
- 23:38[SPEAKER_03]: I feel like we've said that over the years and probably at the time it was true.
- 23:42[SPEAKER_03]: This wind right here makes the Michael Panics dive at the pile on whether he was in or not.
- 23:48[SPEAKER_03]: Well, we really don't know.
- 23:50[SPEAKER_03]: But that makes this one look cute.
- 23:52[SPEAKER_03]: I'll never forget reacting to
- 23:54[SPEAKER_03]: to that one.
- 23:55[SPEAKER_03]: That was number one as an IU fan.
- 23:57[SPEAKER_03]: That was my number one moment as an IU fan.
- 24:00[SPEAKER_03]: And, you know, when I say a Jones had to pick there to basically seal it and get the ball back under the two minute warning.
- 24:08[SPEAKER_03]: First play out at the two minute warning and, you know, they go down and take a knee and just have to get a stop again.
- 24:14[SPEAKER_03]: It was virtually over at that point.
- 24:17[SPEAKER_02]: You know, just in the level of celebration and the, and the, and the show's home was what
- 24:23[SPEAKER_02]: Well, I was the only one here.
- 24:25[SPEAKER_03]: So that may be a good thing.
- 24:28[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, dude.
- 24:29[SPEAKER_00]: We'll eat them.
- 24:31[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, but so I watched it in our garage.
- 24:33[SPEAKER_03]: We have a TV out in the garage, a flat screen.
- 24:36[SPEAKER_03]: And I watched the entire game out there, which I've never done before.
- 24:40[SPEAKER_03]: So maybe that might be my new thing is watching it.
- 24:45[SPEAKER_01]: it's going to be cold in the summer if you're watching the victim title game out there buddy, but you better be right now.
- 24:50[SPEAKER_01]: Well, it's there in the big-to-time game.
- 24:55[SPEAKER_03]: When Joe when I say a Jones when I say a Jones had the interception there, and I never signed get tackled.
- 25:05[SPEAKER_03]: All I saw was him pick it off, and I was gone out the garage.
- 25:10[SPEAKER_03]: outside in the yard down the street.
- 25:13[SPEAKER_03]: I apologize to my neighbors on the 41st hundred block of Mary and Indiana here because they heard it.
- 25:22[SPEAKER_03]: I don't think I've ever been that loud or so.
- 25:25[SPEAKER_03]: just an unbelievable day, great day to be an Indiana fan.
- 25:29[SPEAKER_03]: I vividly remember the watch shot.
- 25:31[SPEAKER_03]: I don't, I have recollection of where I was.
- 25:35[SPEAKER_03]: I was, I don't remember watching it live or anything.
- 25:38[SPEAKER_03]: I was six years old, so maybe I was seven.
- 25:41[SPEAKER_03]: I have no idea.
- 25:42[SPEAKER_03]: But there's just so many good moments that I feel like I missed out on when I was a kid just because I was too little and don't have right now.
- 25:50[SPEAKER_02]: Well, I guess.
- 25:52[SPEAKER_02]: Keith Smart will always be very difficult to replace it.
- 25:56[SPEAKER_02]: Number one, absolutely.
- 25:58[SPEAKER_01]: I was like, similar, I was like six when that happened.
- 26:02[SPEAKER_01]: So it wasn't, I was just discovering sports at that time.
- 26:07[SPEAKER_01]: The only blackout moment if that is an Indiana fan, uh, as an adult in the Indiana fan, where I, it was the doot game at, at Reparina.
- 26:17[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 26:18[SPEAKER_01]: We're Dane 5 foul J Williams and I broke office furniture.
- 26:25[SPEAKER_01]: which I'll now admit because the statute of limitations is running pretty sure at this point, but yeah, there was there was a chair a wall and almost a $10,000 copy machine that got severely damaged after that file.
- 26:38[SPEAKER_01]: But then when he won when when the free throw was missed and they ended up winning the game, I was in running on spring street in Jeffersonville, Indiana and had no recollection of how I got there.
- 26:53[SPEAKER_01]: And there was a lot of doors I had to go through to get there.
- 26:56[SPEAKER_01]: And tonight, I'm not running around.
- 27:01[SPEAKER_01]: I'm not jumping in the Ohio.
- 27:04[SPEAKER_01]: But I am sitting on the back deck after this.
- 27:06[SPEAKER_01]: I'm drinking a us body cow or ten, and I'm gonna just enjoy the heck out of this, because if you've been in Indian football for any amount of time, you've got your young fan here and Grant, who's never had a good memory, you've got your old fat guys like me and Greg, who don't have good memories of Indian football.
- 27:26[SPEAKER_01]: This is surreal.
- 27:28[SPEAKER_01]: Again, Indiana went to Oregon and was the better team.
- 27:32[SPEAKER_01]: Point, point, point, point, point.
- 27:33[SPEAKER_01]: That's the bottom line and it was a sentence that I never thought I would be able to say out loud unironically in my lifetime.
- 27:42[SPEAKER_01]: Unbelievable.
- 27:45[SPEAKER_02]: And my final thought is that for the first time in my life, it is not absurd that Indiana football could end the season as a national champion.
- 28:01[SPEAKER_02]: crazy what this guy's done.
- 28:06[SPEAKER_01]: Build the statue now.
- 28:07[SPEAKER_02]: I'll do it.
- 28:09[SPEAKER_02]: This guy hasn't got it over.
- 28:14[SPEAKER_02]: Thanks so much to Grant and Mike.
- 28:15[SPEAKER_02]: That was one of the most fun reactions we've done.
- 28:17[SPEAKER_02]: Although they all been fun so far this year.
