Pete should call cignetttis bluff and offer to do this. I know he won’t and people Will have a
Stroke if we did it, but it would be awesome if we went there twice in 3 years and kicked their ass or made him retract that statement

He is starting to give off flash in the pan vibes a la Gene Chizek.

Not quite the same
Chizik inherited a talented team from Tommy Tuberville, stocked with a lot of home grown talent. He still needed a lot of help from the magic mercenary (Cam Newton), and once Newton and Malzahn left, his mediocrity showed.
Cignetti built IU with a lot of transfer portal veterans, and the Indiana team he inherited wasn't very good at all.
VERY different times. You’re not wrong…but this is a new metric. Hard to judge what will follow….

27-3 (The score at 3 min left when ND put in backups&walk ons while Cig threw bombs & onside kicks
& more bombs to the endzone with absolutely no chance to win the game in order to make the score look better than the absolute ass kicking that it was.
Google him, you'll see!
I was looking forward to this series
We are one of the two teams who beat Indiana over the last two seasons. I would prefer IU over PU at this point. Glad that USC is back on in 2030. Don’t care when we play them, we just need to win.
Wasn’t SC the winner in all of this with saving face?

Get to play in August per their wishes. Not happy with ND about this.

I kind of stopped stressing about our schedules since I have no voice in the matter.
I still have full blown anger issues though about the playoff snub, the committee, ESPN / ACC /SEC networks and most of the sports media. When ND scheduled Tenn State, I quit stressing.
Fair enough but if Indiana says something like this I would love to hear an ND response to the
Effect of when and where then let’s call their bluff.
He can be an asshoole if he wants but the best way to deal with it is to call it out.
I am tired of the grace and kindness we project. Need some swagger
Maybe a home & home, plus a neutral site Shamrock game?

Shamrock Indianapolis then Chicago. Works for me.

That’s an idea. Pete needs some pushback here. Don’t let IU spew shit and get away with it
I would take 1 game there jksit to get them on schedule just o hold his feet to the fire
Pushback from ND? Not bloody likely.

Would love to see some
