• Why IU’s discipline and special teams beat raw stats
• Age gaps, NIL, and whether the three-year NFL rule still makes sense
• 12 vs 16 vs 24 playoff formats and the case against auto-bids
• Expectations for IU next season under real pressure
• NFL coaching fits, windows for QBs, and development vs scheme
• Officiating swings, penalties at key moments, and game control
• The fix for mid-season staff moves and portal timing
