What national pundits are picking us? I wonder who Klatt is picking? My guess is Oregon. Not that it matters except it shows you how unimpressive we have been offensively/lack of confidence in Allar for so many to pick Oregon in a White Out with the kind of talent we bring to the table.
Indiana will be a hard out
- Thread starter SummitLion
- Start date
No idea. I've not watched or read any predictions yet. I understand the sentiment. It will remain until we win a big game.

Urban Meyer on the triple option podcast, said that Indiana was extremely well coached. He also said that on tape North Carolina looked much worse than the score and we're out of position a great deal of the time and looked terrible. 5:50 on the video.
Indiana is definitely a solid top 10 team. On a side note, California has had three really good quarterbacks over the last 18 months. Their freshman quarterback is lighting it up. Indiana's quarterback was the Cal qb last year. Ohio state's former second string qb, Devin Brown, got beat out by Cal's freshman.

Klatt picked PSU 31-30. Expects the game to be a classic.
