Bucket stays with Boilers

A pretty disappointing finish to a very frustrating year. It was even more disappointing because the student turnout was incredible for this game and for the season in general. Looking back, if a few games go our way we would've been in a completely different situation. I thought that there were so many reasons why we should have been hyped up to take down the boilers today but it just didn't happen. The bright spot happened to be the running of Darius Willis. I think he will definitely provide some excitement for the future of our running game. Too many turnovers was the moral of the story. Two interceptions by Chappell, and early fumble and a blocked kick all lead to the hoosier defeat. Although our record did not show it this year, in my opinion we made a lot of progress. You can debate me all you want but last year we had very bad losses of 42-20 (Ball State), 45-9 (Iowa), 55-13 (Illinois), 37-34 (Central Michigan), 55-20 (Wisconsin), 34-7 (Penn State) and 62-10 (Purdue). This year we were competitive in every single game except for Virginia. We could have had victories against Michigan, Northwestern, Iowa and Wisconsin. Most of the time it seemed like a roller coaster ride this season but I do believe it when Lynch and Fisher said in the post game that there were significant improvements this year. Stay tuned all off-season as I blog about off-season changes, recruits, and anything else regarding Indiana hoosier football. Thank you all 21 seniors on this years squad and I wish you all the best of luck with your future plans.

Any thoughts on the game/season feel free to comment.
