I noticed on my facebook two "friends" with no ties discussing Ball State. They were saying Ball State is solid looked good etc.. They said Ball State will beat IU this weekend. These guys would have never seen us with out the NBC game. If this happening on my facebook its happening elsewhere. We made a statement and now this IU game becomes huge. If we can win and I stress the word if we have a chance at a big crowd against Western KY. Western is looking more and more like a winnable game. We are now at one of those shit or get off the pot points where we normally blow it.. Its time to do something different

RM... this was exactly my point re Exposure post!
This could vault the program for a decade IF we follow up

We're a year away from this kind of talk. Let's win a few MAC games before we talk about these lofty goals.

We'll see how they follow up that performance. What kind of talk are we a year away from? We can't say the IU game is big and could be a turning point for this program? That's basically all that has been said here. As long as the players are focused and ready for each game it doesn't matter what we say. lol

I might go along with beating WKU. Or even stealing one over the hapless Hoosiers.... MAC wins are a great goal this year.

I might go along with beating WKU. Or even stealing one over the hapless Hoosiers.... MAC wins are a great goal this year. Im not sure how much my expectations for this year have changed if any.. I think I said I expect 3 or 4 wins and I wanted to see improvement especially in MAC games. We have played 2 games and so far no one can say this team especially on defense has not improved. Now its entirely possible we take a step back against IU and get our doors blown off. I gave us zero chance to beat IU based off last year and I still think there is very little chance we beat them. All I am stating is that there is an opportunity there for the team to seize. Its on the team and staff to take advantage of it,, I hope they continue to improve each week my expectations will probably change if we beat IU. We are 1-1 and that is just what everyone expected at this point. We played better than most expected at ND but you have to back that up now. Its time to see if the team can.

We are playing a Power Five team. Sure it’s IU and not ND and they don’t get the quality players that Notre Dame gets, but they still get lots of good players. They also spend more than four times the dollars on their program. Should they beat us, yes. But we have shown the ability to take it to IU in the past. We played very well against ND, do it again Saturday and we get the W.
Go Cards!

Looks like ESPN has an analytics expert tweeting about us on the "Scores" tab for this week's upcoming game. Looks like this momentum is being measured in an "official" capacity. www.espn.com/espn/now?nowId=21-41031684-4

I had one friend on twitter from Muncie mention the game! And two friends on Facebook say they watched the last three minutes Momentum is building for sure. I can only imagine the reaction if we play TSIB close! LET'S GO!!!!!!
