Would be a lot like Alabama v. Texas A&M this season?

In any event I meant Florida this year, which was missing so many people as to make their game not worth watching or playing
Then how do you explain Ole Miss?

Ole Miss beat Indiana without 3 guys that had 465 yards of total offense against Bama! Ealy-120 rushing and 18 receiving, Yeboah-181 receiving, and Moore-143 receiving and 3 rushing.

Indiana’s best player- and one of the nations best QBs was out.

Indiana was playing their backup qb who had a separated throwing shoulder

Indiana sucks.

That's not meant to take away from their success this year. I'm a Purdue fan. We suck, but we certainly didn't finish 5-1. We weren't even at .500. I would have loved to have had Indiana's season. 

But if you look at recruiting rankings for the last 5 years, Ole Miss has consistently beaten Indiana. If you look specifically at the 2016 and 2017 classes, the guys who are now 5th year seniors and true seniors, Ole Miss' recruiting in those two years was FAR ahead of Indiana. In 2016 Ole Miss had the #5 class in the country. 

Indiana outperformed their talent this year. When it came to a bowl game against a team with more talent across the entire roster, a few important skill players out for Ole Miss and Indiana's QB being out maybe was just a wash.

I can't even begin to have any prediction considering OSU has a bunch of guys out and I don't know who they are.

Was he a finalist for any of the QB awards?

He was a semifinalist for the Davey O'brien award but wasn't eligible to be a finalist due to his injury

The best claims are unfalsifiable.

I don't know if they would have smoked them but they probably would have passed the ball better.  Either way both teams had one of their worst offensive outputs of the season so I'm not sure we should be all that shocked.  I was surprised Indiana made a game of it after watching the first half - Tuttle had a really hard time throwing the ball without one hopping it.  Of course, who knows it Tuttle is any good at all with a healthy shoulder.
