    Curt's P4 record is tremendously better than his PSAC West record. Strange but true.

    • It’s important to remember that Curt was significantly more limited in what he could do at a state D2 school, particularly in terms of his staff and other resources. He inherited the team when it was in one of its lowest points in decades. It’s also fair to say he was a first time head coach and IUP gave him the opportunity to learn some things that he undoubtedly does today. I think Curt did a great job at IUP. They were a play away from the national semifinals and probably a national championship game.

      He needed to get the next opportunity and Elon gave it to him. Then he got his shot at JMU and found himself on the national stage. The rest is history.

        It feels that way. They can win any type of game. We keep talking about this new era of college football and how coaches struggle with it, especially the older guys. And here’s a 64 year old who seems to have absolutely mastered it.

          He's probably picked up a few things along the way, and I believe he might have slightly more resources in the Big Ten.

          KICKING ALABAMA'S BUTT. I don't think I've enjoyed a game as much as this one in quite some time. B1G is shutting up quite a few Big 12 and SEC knobheads today.

            It would have been nice if he had done that from 2011-2016….

              To make up for it, he needs to make a nice donation to Tort. Spend that Hoosier money….

                Neither Louisville or SMU are terrible teams. SMU has a number
                of guys that were transfers from Miami from when Rhett Lashlee left his OC post (at least they did last year). And Louisville is not a “bad” team.

                If Miami was in the SEC, nobody would blink if they lost to a bad Florida and Kentucky team.

                • A BIG team will be in the title game.

                  • The first two games today were absolutely hideous. Texas Tech was never in that football game despite their defense playing well for 30 minutes. They could barely reach 200 yards of total offense. James Madison scored 34 yards and had over 500 yards of offense on that Oregon team.

                    Congrats to Curt, but wow that game was ugly. Another non-competitive CFP game.

                    I’m just wondering where the outcry is from the talking heads and the average fan about non-competitive games they have to watch. And listen, I get it… It’s not the first round and the teams playing today won to get here. But let’s stop believing that the G5 inclusion is the issue. There’s just a ton of blowouts in college football. Always have been and always will be. Pump the professional model all you want, but this will never be the NFL.

                      Well it’s clear that 5 teams from the SEC is a joke. Alabamastan and Oklahomastan shouldn’t have been in it.

                      • I’m absolutely loving the fact the Fake Indiana band has taken over the field and just performing because they didn’t get to perform on the field to keep it in playing shape after it was soaked.

                        That is something Doc’s IUP band would have done….

                          I’d just like people to acknowledge that there’s going to be routes, laughers, non-competitive games, blowouts, etc., regardless of who is in the field. That’s all I want people to acknowledge. It’s not the NFL.

                          It’s just people that are mostly wishing/hoping to see traditional teams from larger conferences who they perceive will be more competitive than somebody like JMU or Tulane. That’s the public outcry. You’d have thought JMU was the villain of college football for being invited. But they were more competitive in the first round than Texas Tech or Alabama were today. And those upset about JMU had no comments about two non-competitive games today.

                            I don't think he'll forget about IUP.

                            • The Sugar Bowl
                              is the actual SEC title game….

                              • That Chambliss kid was freaking unreal. Not hard to see how Ferris State won a title with him at QB.
