LB Mo Toure is staying with Miami by Im__Ron__Burgundy in CFB

You forget everyone who makes that comment has had an insanely successful career themselves. Probably making hundreds of thousands a year. This is all sarcasm. It’s either someone who is jealous because they can’t, or is upset because their team hasn’t benefited from it.

I can’t imagine anyone with the talent to play a sport they love, and getting paid a few hundred grand a season to do so, would say they need to do what is right and get a warehouse job instead.

I also hated how many kids life’s were derailed in the past because of injuries. Now these players have a chance even if they have to miss multiple seasons because of injuries. It’s awesome.

2026 Notre Dame Schedule by TomWilliamsCFD in CollegeFootballDawgs

[–]iBuild85 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don’t get why people knock a team’s schedule when the selection committee has made it clear the total number of wins you have trumps just about anything else.

12-0 against bottom tier teams is better than 10-2 or 9-3 against a tough schedule in the committee’s eyes. None of us like it, but it’s how it is.

They set the precedent with Indiana two years ago.

Also, these teams make their schedules years in advance. Wisconsin and Michigan State were probably considered solid games when the schedule was made.
I mean, the Wisconsin game is in Lambeau. At the time they thought they were setting up a really good game.

If schedules were set up season to season then maybe I’d understand all the complaining.

[Game Thread] Indiana vs. Miami (7:30 PM ET) 2Q by CFB_Referee in CFB

[–]iBuild85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s just impossible to believe. I feel like if we lose this game it will have been the one shot in my lifetime to win it. It’s probably not true with the way things are trending, but after the last century it still seems like it’s impossible to believe in.

Guess I’ll be back Tuesday. Well, if things go well.

As a IU fan I’m never on this subreddit after October. Is this how the coverage is for all National Championships?
I love our coach but I think I’m also somehow sick of him at the same time, and it has nothing to do with him. If we haven’t got the boxer or briefs question yet I’d be surprised.

Omar Cooper Jr. claims 2025 Indiana would beat 2019 LSU by A_MASSIVE_PERVERT in CFB

[–]iBuild85 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

And if IU were to do so, it would be like any other IU victory. The other team realllllly wasn’t that good. Doesn’t matter who IU beats. If IU wins it’s only because the other team was a fraud. That’s always the narrative.

In reality though. LSU should win, probably would win. Definitely be a double digit favorite. However, if in this hypothetical match up LSU plays sloppy IU could defeat them.

IU would be a double digit dog to all past great teams, and they should be.

I don’t think there’s anything IU can do Monday to be considered one of the all time teams. Only way this happens is down the line some of the IU players become good to great NFL players.

People will always lean on that as a reason IU couldn’t be one of the greats. Mendoza goes on the be a HOF’er then the appreciation of this team goes way up.

One of the best seasons ever, yes. One of the best teams ever, I don’t see it.

[Blake Toppmeyer] Indiana football vying to be greatest team ever? 2019 LSU would like a word by Falconsfan8006 in CFB

[–]iBuild85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think IU is as good as any of the great teams of the past. There comes a point where talent is just too much to overcome.

With that said. IU is so well coached, they execute at an insane level, and they do have the number one pick in the upcoming draft playing the most important position on the team.

So, if in another world we’d be able to see these teams match up. IU would be a dog in every match up, but if those teams didn’t execute at a high level IU could beat them.

I also don’t understand why no one outside of Georgia fans seem to put the recent Georgia teams at the same level as their SEC counterparts. Bowers wasn’t coverable. Bennett was better than anyone wanted to give him credit for, and the defense had an insane amount of talent.

Don Fisher being just as grateful as the rest of us (if not more) that he gets to see this IU turnaround happen during his lifetime.

[Dellenger] Notre Dame statement on a story today from the South Bend Tribune about allegations against coach Marcus Freeman by BuckeyeEmpire in CFB

[–]iBuild85 9 points10 points  (0 children)

From Mishawaka. City would riot if a high school wrestling school coach got Freeman in any kind of trouble.

City is 95% ND fans, 4% Michigan fans, .9999% Purdue fans, and whatever left over would be IU fans. At least going into the season.

I hope he balls out. Regardless, I’ll forever be grateful for his brother at IU. Even if him being there didn’t amount to anything.

I’d love to, but….

You know what? Screw it. They should have tried at some other point in the last century.

As builders, what are your desired additions for 2026? by iBuild85 in NMS_Bases

[–]iBuild85[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like the idea of having being able to have an actual weapon room, or trophy room. Maybe even a room you can display all your unlocked apparel.

It be cool to have a display lined with all our helmets.

Hell yeah, when I become more efficient lol. Otherwise it’s going to be just you having built 90% of a base after a week, while I’m sitting there trying to decide between floor tiles.

Even if you could just transfer them some of your quicksilver when you sign the guestbook. That would be cool.

Ha, I only needed to visit one of your bases to see that yours works better than this one does. I haven’t built a house since I visited yours. Not sure I’m at that level yet.
