I have no family members or friends who went to IU or are fans. So although I always want tosu to lose (well almost always) and I love Mike Hart, I had no horse in this race today.
That being said, how the heck does a team get away with the blatant, in-your-face holding that tosu does? If I said this after a Michigan game I would be accused of sour grapes, but it’s just amazing to me how much they hold with no flags. They actually did get called for a hold late in the game today which was the proper call,’and yet it wasn’t as blatant as previous holding I saw earlier that wasn’t called.
To be clear, bad calls won’t be the reason tosu trashes Michigan this year; however, as this IU game turned out those non-calls were hugely impactful in the outcome.
I hate tosu but even with my skewed eyesight toward them, I don’t think I’m wrong here. They hold all.the.time.
