They do not talk of a team that was a 30 pt underdog not folding when it was down. They do not talk about three interceptions (and should have a couple more). They do not talk about a defense that was all over Wimbush the entire game despite their All-America linemen. They didn't say anything of that fumble taken away from us that gave ND a TD on the next play...talk about ''home cookin' ''. They over looked us? Quite simply our defense out played the offense by a mile. Two of their TDs came from a short field created by interceptions not because of a good offense. They were lucky to win that game. The condescending attitude of the tv crew before the game was sickening. It was all talk of how ND would be able to get a look at their third and fourth stringers before they got into the meat on their schedule. They, meaning EVERYONE at ND and their fans found out what I have been saying for a long time WE ARE NOT LIL' OLE BALL STATE ANYMORE. P.S. Thanks for the $1.1 million suckers. When are you going to schedule us again?

What’s got to make you feel good is that ND remained #8. That means the pollsters looked at our game the same as they did the Michigan game - it was a tough win over a quality team. Great game Cards!

They will not admit it but we scared the bejesus out of them and they afraid we would do it again and prove it was not a fluke. That is why they will not schedule us anytime soon and the reason IU will not come back to Scheumann.

We showed well and it’s great. But I’m hoping a close loss to Nd is not the highlight of our season and we’re not still taking about it a month from now. We opened some eyes but we can quickly close them again if we lay an egg in Bloomington or continue to get tossed around in MAC games.
Thankfully I think the players moved on as soon as the clock hit 00 last Saturday. They’ve been talking that way at least. If not, Iu will embarrass us.

I met Love’s parents, real nice people, Julian is a good kid from what I’ve seen. On another note, local channel was discussing the IU game this weekend, summed up last couple games. The local guy was interviewing the National talk head. When asked if IU would win this weekend the national head did not answer. He said “I popped the ND/BSU game in last night, Ball State is a really tough team, IU will have to execute both sides of the ball if they’re going to win.” Go Cards!!! Play your game, stay foot on the gas & go get it!!!

I don't think ND minds paying anyone 1.1 million. Their bookstore takes in more than that on football Saturdays in south bend.

Yea sure, ND has NEVER turned down a $1,000,000 gift to the school. I rest my case.

What case are you making, exactly? We were a blip on their radar and gave them a tough game on one Saturday. It was not a big deal for that school to pay us 1.1 mil. They have the money. In the bigger picture, so what? We lost. Get hammered by Iu and any residual effect of making Nd work for a win over us is gone. Time to move on from celebrating a close lose.
