At this point, it doesn’t really surprise me about Indiana feeling disrespected. From what I can remember:
- Purdue was offended about Frost calling them a winnable game. Colorado’s QB and a coach mentioned that our players and staff talk too much. Michigan players remembered Frost saying UCF “outhit” them. Troy used it as motivation when Frost said we’d be their super bowl. I don’t know how much it’s used for motivation, but I see opposing writers and fans reference Moos’ comment about “they’re shaking now,” all the time.
I’m not trying to take a side or tell Frost to stfu. In some cases, especially Purdue, it feels like they’re trying too hard to be offended. I’m not even sure how much “bulletin board” material really matters. No idea what happened in this case but I think there’s enough of a track record at this point that it doesn’t really surprise me that another team is feeling disrespected lol.
