Between Dak, Stewart, McClellan and incoming Lott/Bair....I see Bird-Bombs in our future!

Highest Recruiting Class Ever? Oh Yeah!

Final score was 27-21 Indiana, as they created one turnover, one sack, and went for 186 yards passing. 1Ducker1 predicted 30-17 for a total of only seven points off. Red Eddy Green predicted 31-24 also for a total of only seven points off, thus they both tie on points. 1Ducker1 predicted two turnovers, and Red Eddy Green predicted three, thus the closest was 1Ducker1 who got this tiebreaker. Both OBD members predicted three sacks, and thus were tied in that tie-breaker category. 1Ducker1 predicted 290 passing yards by Indiana, while Red Eddy Green predicted 214 and thus won this tiebreaker. So here we are again....tied on points, and tied on tiebreakers, and the way we break the tie is with who entered the contest first....and that is... 1Ducker1! It is only right that the last contest of the year comes down to the thinnest of margins, just like so many of the games. Again....this is fun for all, and I do enjoy seeing all the participants of these contests, so thanks to ALL for being a part of it! Fantastic prediction by Red Eddy Green, and CONGRATS to 1Ducker1! They are READY to Party with the Winner!

Why don’t YOU look it up, and let us know?

His track times (10.6) are impressive, as well as his 8.6 yard-per-carry in Fresno (where a ton of good players have come from) speak to a speed back, one who can catch in the open field. However, his offer list was not impressive.... Utah, Arizona, Cal, UNLV...but he was a true Rivals 4-Star Running Back, but not on the other services. But we like those with upside, the projects for future years being on the roster. (Kind of a Limar replacement?) By contrast, the other RB in this class, Tradarian Ball, is a 4-Star on all the services, and was offered by Texas, Michigan, Georgia, Miami, USC, LSU, etc. Tradarian Ball

Well, there is no substitute for experience! And considering today is his day to visit, and it is a beautiful sunny day in Eugene...which is only right because... "It NEVER rains in Autzen Stadium!"

It is great fun to be able to use an image I created and saved years ago....at the right moment again. Never mind what demented implication comes from that!

Hello My OBD FishDuck Forum Friends! It just hit me...why not have a contest for the 'Natty since we all want the Hoosiers to win? (Well, most of us...) What is your prediction of Indiana versus Miami? Take your shot and let's have fun with it... Let's get these predictions started, and remember I look for the differential between your predicted points with both teams from the actual points. I will use the tiebreaker information when needed, so provide all the data below! Entries without ALL the information are invalid, and predictions on other threads don't count. We Have Two New Rules: If two winning scores are tied, and tiebreakers tie? The first one who posted wins, automatically. Please follow directions, as I need all that is below for tiebreakers: --the winner. --the score. --the amount of turnovers Indiana creates. --the number of sacks Indiana records on Miami. --the number of passing yards by the Hoosiers. My prediction is: Indiana 34-20 2 3 281

I should probably 'fess-up to the Indiana fan that I am not as understanding with a few Big-10 members such as Washington, and USC. I am "nobility-impaired" with those teams!

Crader played GREAT at tackle versus USC...if the Yale transfer does not start at right tackle--I have all the confidence in Crader to play well.

Beavis?

The real question is....was his MOMMY there?

That was very kind of you...and what a first post! I enjoyed chatting with you recently, and invite you to offer your Big-10 perspectives in here often. You have thousands of Duck fans cheering for your team Monday night, and we look forward to great games with Indiana in the future. In fact...for the first time--the Hoosiers are traveling to Eugene to play the Diamond Ducks at PK Park later this spring. Great fun...

We recruited him pretty hard the first time around, so he knows Lanning and most of the staff. The only thing is...he is a left tackle, and so is 'Nacho coming in, and I think he was probably assumed to be the starter? I don't know if 'Nacho is open to sitting and learning for a year...
