[NU Sports] Indiana-Illinois

[Abrahamson, Alan (NBC Universal)]

I would just like to add, by the way, that while I understand fully that
Penn State deserves to be favored by two TDs or whatever -- if, and this
is a big if, if Scott Concannon gives us a running game today, I really
like our chances.

My head says root for Iowa, but my heart says Alan is right on all
points. In particular, we control our own destiny.

Go Cats!

Iowa is not that good. I would be delighted to see them lose.

 

Beyond which, I would on general principle like to see Iowa lose.

 

God love Ricky Stanzi and another interception!

 

Beyond which - our bowl prospects are within our control.

I always love to see the upset, but in this case an Indiana win could
hurt NU, since Indiana is potentially competing with NU for a bowl bid
and an Iowa loss could make the Big Ten's bid to get 2 into the BCS more
precarious.  In any case, NU has a chance to take care of business later
today.

Go 'Cats!!!

God, I am rooting for the Hoosiers, and they (with the help of the refs)

sure win against the Corn People.



At least the kid just made this last field goal. 24-14, Indiana, with a
few minutes left in the third.
