CrimsonCast

Zach Osterman of the Indy Star is back, as we talk about IU Football's week after the bowl selection fiasco, the team's mental and physical state heading into next weekend, and get a preview of Ole Miss and a breakdown of how IU matches up.

We're joined by fan favorite and WCBI anchor/reporter Courtney Robb, an IU alum who covers SEC football in the state of Mississippi. She talks about her perspective on this year's Ole Miss team, and we discuss what IU might need to worry about as they head into their Outback Bowl matchup against the Rebels.

Scott and DoctorGC do a rare CrimsonCast Live to express our disgust at the cynical politics of college football and the Big Ten, as Indiana has a New Year's Six bowl stolen out from under them and ends up in the Outback Bowl.

Scott @CrimsonCast317 is joined again James Turner @Hooosierdocious for CrimsonCash Week 9 - Crossover & Championship Week!

Scott and GC are back, talking about both IU football and IU basketball. On the football front, we discuss the unfortunate departure of Kane Wommack, the difficulty in building a sustainable program at a place like Indiana, and the sportspolitik of the Big Ten "crossover games" and the bowl situation. On the basketball side, we look at the first six games of the year and debate what we're seeing, as well as discussing some of the finer points of IU's defense this season.

Scott @CrimsonCast317 is joined again James Turner @Hooosierdocious for CrimsonCash Week 8. They start off giving their thoughts on the screw job the B1G gave to IU in the B1G title game. They go way off the rails and you can hear stories about Scott pushing Galen into a Podcast, Scott's Changerace Blog (http://changerace.blogspot.com/) and James job at a in-grocery store bank.

On this relatively short podcast, we delve further into the autopsy of the Big Ten's decision to remove Indiana from the Big Ten title game. We talk about how the conference created the situation and then exacerbated it, and why the realities of the situation don't make it any more palatable for IU fans. We also discuss the CFP Committee's rankings, and what might be behind them.

The Big Ten decides to arbitrarily change its rules and remove IU from the Big Ten title game. The College Football Playoff committee decides to goofily misapply criteria to Indiana to keep them on the sidelines of a New Year's Six bowl. Chronic Hoosier joins to discuss 24 hours of theft and outrage.

Indiana plays a sublime game at Camp Randall Stadium and comes away with their first victory over Wisconsin since 2002. We talk in depth about the game, the performance by the defense, the coming out party for Jack Tuttle, and the buzz and energy surrounding the game. We then talk about the future prospects of this IU team for the rest of the season --- the looming Bucket Game matchup vs Purdue, the Big Ten Championship Game (or not), and where the Hoosiers may end up bowling. 90 minutes of fun with some swearing involved. Take a listen.

On a live Friday night podcast, GC breaks down what we saw from IU basketball in MauiAsheville, and tries to make sense of what IU basketball is this year. Then we move to football and spend a good 30 minutes talking about the various elements of Saturday's Indiana - Wisconsin tilt. In a weird season, this may be a weird game --- certainly one that's hard to figure out, given that Wisconsin has barely played this year and Indiana is starting essentially a rookie QB under center. But there are some interesting and encouraging aspects of this matchup for the Hoosiers, and there are reasons to believe Indiana may not play the same moribund game that they normally turn in when visiting Camp Randall.
