And when they do, an already dominant team is going to become even more so. And I really think they’re going to choose this game as the time to do that after seeing on tape how easy it is likely to be for him.

My only goal for this game is to have it not be another Indiana, because if we get 50 balled again, those 2 games will dictate the narrative around the state of our program way more than an 8-4/9-3 record will.

North Carolina cornerbacks coach Armond Hawkins was suspended, a university source said Tuesday. The first-year Tar Heels assistant’s suspension is related to extra benefits allegations that came to light in a report about the dysfunction within Bill Belichick’s UNC program by WRAL.

The alleged extra benefits — which are in violation of NCAA rules — involved providing a player’s family members sideline passes for a game, according to the source.

Offense held steady at 21 but defense dropped to 64th. if i counted correctly, that's the 14/18 defense in the conference. USC, Rutgers, PU, and UCLA are ranked below us. MD surprisingly high at 16th. WI and UW are ranked 40 and 51, which is pretty manageable.

home game makes a difference in college. so being at home will help.

qb play. matt patricia has a pretty great track record (nfl and now college) against inexperience qbs. luke is more experienced than anyone they've played.

i think we'll be very up for this, probably moreso than ohio state, coming off a big shitkicking in a night game.

i don't think we are going to win. at least the first and third reasons i noted are more intangibles than xs and os, so those could be completely irrelevant by late saturday afternoon.

but i'm not thinking we'll win, just play a more competitive game than iu (which isn't saying a whole lot)
