00:00
The one me and you are really going to be waiting for next Friday night in South Bend,
00:06
the Irish and the Hoosiers.
00:10
That's right.
00:11
And I have to look this up.
00:12
When was the last time they played each other?
00:14
Have they ever met?
00:16
And they have to have played, right?
00:18
Indiana and Notre Dame has to have played at some point in college football.
00:23
I'm going to look it up.
00:24
I'm going to look it up while Marcus talks.
00:27
So here he is.
00:28
You remember the infamous Cignetti line, right?
00:31
From when he got hired.
00:32
I win.
00:33
Go Google me.
00:34
We played it here.
00:35
We know it well.
00:37
Marcus Freeman referencing that as he talks about how good this Indiana team is.
00:41
The coach has done a wonderful job to take this program to win 11 games in the Big Ten
00:47
and in a Big Ten season and to have this team ready to make a run in the playoffs.
00:54
It's a credit to the coach.
00:56
I didn't know much about him.
00:58
I took a minute and Googled him and looked at some of the things he's done in the past
01:02
at his other places.
01:03
I mean, he's won everywhere he's been.
01:05
So he's done a great job and we expect a great opponent.
01:09
I've just briefly started looking at them.
01:11
They're a talented team.
01:13
I think Notre Dame is better than Indiana.
01:17
I think they're at home.
01:19
I think it's going to be a hostile environment.
01:21
I like the kid Rourke.
01:23
I think they have the better quarterback.
01:25
I think that Indiana can score.
01:28
I think they're going to give Notre Dame a run for their money.
01:31
They might very well cover.
01:33
If they beat Notre Dame, I'll keel over.
01:36
I really will.
01:37
I don't think they've ever faced anything this big ever this season at all.
01:44
The Ohio State game in Columbus is a lot like it.
01:48
Going to Notre Dame Stadium to play the Irish, I mean, it's just brutal.
01:52
Especially in a playoff setting.
01:55
I don't think it's going to be easy, but I think the kid Rourke is good, man.
01:58
He can give them problems.
02:00
Believe me, you.
02:01
Notre Dame's got a great defense.
02:03
We'll see if they can shut this guy down.
02:06
Now, Notre Dame, in their history, they are 23-5-1 against Indiana.
02:12
But listen to this.
02:14
They've only played once since 1958.
02:21
They played in 1991 in South Bend.
02:25
Irish beat them 49-27 during the Lou Holtz years.
02:28
But all these other meetings, they played basically every year in the 20s, 30s and 40s.
02:34
The Irish did the Hoosiers.
02:35
So no recent history.
02:36
That doesn't count.
02:37
Same with the pros when we say Cleveland, Detroit in the 50s.
02:38
That doesn't count.
02:39
We're 60s and above here.
02:40
No.
02:41
That's it.
02:42
So really, they've only played once.
02:51
1991 in South Bend.
02:52
That was the only time the Irish and Indiana have ever faced off.
02:55
So this should be fun for Signetti and Marcus Freeman.
02:59
And huge for both of them in this game, getting a chance to win a playoff game next Friday
03:04
night.
03:05
We're going to have a lot of fun with that here on C2C.
