Oh, I'm definitely excited for football as well.

After last season ended, I was ready for this one to begin. Everything was set up for this to be the year for the Hoosiers to play in their first bowl game since 1993. I believed that with Hep as the coach, and I still believe the players and Coach Lynch will get it done.

The team didn't lose but a handful of starters and returns Lewis, Hardy, Thigpen, etc. We have seven home games again, and Ohio State and Michigan are off the schedule this year and next.

This is going to be a great year for IU athletics.

Good to hear some enthusiasm for football. Hopefully this is the year the Hoosiers can finally break through and head to a bowl game.

Exactly, I'm excited for MM and basketball season too, but I'm also excited for football. We need to pack the Rock for revenue, and to show support for the team, coaches, and in honor of Coach Hep. Anyway, GO IU and nice blog.

excellent point about football.

IU needs more football revenue for sure to keep the athletic program healthy.

It's so nice being this high in the rankings again. I expect us to be ranked somewhere from 9 to 11 in the preseason polls.

Only 3 months until Midnight Madness...Can't.Wait.

I think IU and MSU will indeed be neck and neck for the B10 crown. I like our chances to win the league, but I think a lot will depend on the schedule.

Also, MSU has a dynamite recruiting class coming in. Combine that with Drew Neitzel and the emerging Raymar Morgan and the Spartans are going to be very special.
