    Northwestern is playing Illinois at Wrigley Field next week and they had a shot of the field they're going to play on, it runs from the third base dugout to the right field wall and the goal posts on the right field end are mounted on the right field wall. The back line of the end zone is essentially the wall.

    BTW, the last college football game played at Wrigley was in 1938. Who played it in?

    And no fair answering if you saw this question answered on ESPN earlier

    I thought IU was playing pretty well, but its horrific defense comes to the rescue.

    When IU missed a long FG down 17-10 and Chappell got hurt on the previous play, and Wisky went down and scored, IU just fell apart. Quickly.

    Indiana isn't very good, but I've never seen a more snakebitten team. A lot of their damage is self-inflicted (dropped game-winning passes in the end zone, giving up two game-winning 40+-yard TD passes in the final two minutes this season), but it seems just about every front-line starter on offense has been hurt and -- at least until the last five minutes of the second quarter today -- they've managed to stay competitive while just attempting to plug guys in. They just mailed it in ... Wisky could hang 70 on them today.

    As I always say; "It's one thing to shoot yourself in the foot; It's another thing if you point it at your head."

    Indiana has replaced the Juice Williams-era Illini as the Wile E. Coyote of college football. They get a safe dropped on them every week. Which is too bad because Bill Lynch is a pretty good guy.
