CrimsonCast

We're joined on this episode by former Indiana wide receiver Mitchell Paige to talk about this year's football team. We cover a bunch of fun aspects of present and past, including the keys to the roster that make this year's team so good, the coaching staff's approach to getting this level of excellence out of the roster, the difference between this team and past Hoosier football squads, and the emotion that longtime IU fans are feeling towards watching both the team and the fans embrace and celebrate football so wholeheartedly this season.

On this edition of the Bison Chat, we look back at the amazing Homecoming Weekend that Indiana University enjoyed. We talk about the Big Noon Kickoff extravaganza, the vibe outside and inside of Memorial Stadium, and Indiana's 56-7 drubbing of Nebraska. We hear from Curt Cignetti about his team's play in that game, and about Tayven Jackson starting at QB this upcoming week. We also discuss ESPN Gameday coming to Bloomington, and the atmosphere on campus and in Bloomington this week.

We welcome back Zach Osterman of the Indy Star to the podcast to talk about Indiana football. We talk through the way Indiana's season has going, the confidence the Hoosiers are playing with and how the coaching staff has instilled that, the evolution of the team throughout the course of the season, the Nebraska game performance and how that fits into the narrative of the season, the dominance that IU has shown in multiple statistical phases of the game, and the unique aspects of this 12-team CFP playoff that tie in to IU's fanbase and place in college football.

Longtime friend of the pod Ben Portnoy of Sports Business Journal joins us for an action-packed episode. We cover a ton of ground here - the scene this past weekend that surrounded Indiana vs Nebraska, the slow but steady climb that Indiana University Athletics has undertaken to modernize the football program, and how different things are from 15 years ago. We also talk about ESPN College Gameday coming to town and how important that is for the program, the hiring of Curt Cignetti and why it has worked so well, and what it would do for Indiana football and the Athletics Program if they end up in the CFP.

We ended up recording a giddy live edition of the weekly recap podcast, as we looked back in satisfaction and awe of the Indiana Hoosiers' 56-7 defenestration of the Nebraska Cornhuskers. On the show, we dove deep into Indiana's dominance in all three phases of the game, the remarkable job done by the offensive line, the insane rushing attack, and the consistency and aggressiveness of the defense. We also talk about Kurtis Rourke's injury, Tayven Jackson's laudable pinch-hitting performance at QB, and the great job that the coaches continue to do.

We also discuss the overall atmosphere in Bloomington and around the stadium yesterday, one of the greatest advertisements for IU football that we've ever seen - FOX Sports and Barstool both on site, a beautiful weather day, and an electric atmosphere inside a sold-out Memorial Stadium. This is a fun show, hope you enjoy it.

It's Homecoming Preview Podcast time, as GC and Taylor Lehman of Bite Sized Bison break down the matchup between the Indiana Hoosiers and the Nebraska Cornhuskers. We discuss the statistical comparisons between these two teams, and talk at length about the mutual strenghts of these two teams going head-to-head with IU's offense and Nebraska's defense. We also discuss Kurtis Rourke, line play, Nebraska's talent and size advantages, special teams, field position, and why both of us have a pretty strong feeling about which way this game goes.

Scott & James and back for another week of CrimsonCASH.   This week they talk about why Oregon State's schedule factors into the Purdue vs Oregon game, Rutgers scoring issues, why we both like the Northwestern QB, why the Michigan  v Illinois game will go over, why James likes some home dogs this week, and why the Hoosiers will cover their 6.5 point spread.   

Finally they give out this week’s Hoosier Hotstreak, along with some NBA future bets and thoughts.

On this edition of Bison Chat, Galen and Joe talk about the long bye week for Indiana Football, before diving fully into the upcoming game versus Nebraska. We hear some quotes from both Curt Cignetti and Matt Rhule about this weekend's matchup between the Hoosiers and the Huskers. We also take questions from the audience about Indiana's playoff futures, the idea of Nebraska as an underdog to Indiana, the concessions situation at Memorial Stadium, and Joe's LED lights.  Bison Chat is produced by Emily Fox.

Scott and James are back to look at the lines for this week’s B1G games.  James tells you why the Washington v Iowa game is his favorite bet this weekend, why he never takes the points on large lines but is doing it against Purdue, his hate for the alternative Ohio State jerseys, if Minnesota can break the streak of teams not named IU losing when they go west.  With no IU game this weekend, no Hoosier Hotstreak, but we do put together a 4 team B1G parlay for you, along with the “You Asked For It” fan submitted parlay.

Scott is joined by Alex Bozich of Inside the Hall to chat about how he started ITH, why Ohio State stinks with media credentials, what drives traffic on their site, what (if anything) IU needs to do to get back to being an elite program and what are traditions that they would and wouldn’t touch.
