Wow. People get up in arms about a team having a 24 yr old QB and they have a whole team of grown men playing against boys.

What is being uncovered is that finding men who have played at a high level at lesser schools is better than getting 17 year old kids who dominate in high school.

So many males don’t develop until early 20s.

What is the average age of all 4 ncaa semi final teams?

I bet it’s close to 22 so not sure this story has as much meaning as people are trying to make it. People are trying to act like its 19 for the other teams which isn’t the case

This shite is why Indiana doesn't impress me. Do what Bil Snyder did at K State and then we cant talk.

Man, yall are so mad about the failures of the SEC. But, I gotta admit, I didn’t see this excuse coming.

A team with an average age of 23 playing teams with average age of 22 really sets y’all off

There isn’t one good thing about college football right now between NIL, unlimited transfers, conference realignment, expanded playoffs, and 7 year players

I’m ready for the inevitable post during the NFL playoffs this weekend about these teams being younger than Indiana. Somebody will do it.

I’ve yet to hear a good explanation of why we have so many 6-7 year players on college. The main reason I hear is “Covid Year” so does that mean we will start to see less and less of these older players?

Seems like the NCAA is giving out extra years like candy these days, so I doubt it really slows down

This is true, but is it really true of elite athletes? We pretty often see teenage Olympians and NBA all stars.

Indiana isn’t top 25 for average height or weight of its offensive line, so this whole men amongst boys narrative doesn’t track for me. They have smaller players than the teams they are beating.
