Well the new #1 Alabama goes down at Tennessee. It’s that kind of year.

Well that was quite the comeback, but man we were a no show in the 1st half. Credit to the team for not packing it in, but we just dug too big a hole for ourselves. Let’s get Illinois on Saturday.

He’s not a volume shooter. He needs to be set and have space before he shoots. But yeah we need him to get more looks for sure

He may not be a volume shooter, but he’s 20 for 40 on the year, exactly 50%. That’s impressive by any standard.

Mystery to me why Galloway doesn’t shoot more 3s…he’s shootings nearly 50% for the season.

Worst half we’ve played all year. Get the bus ready. 

Play Gunn until Bates gets his head straight…can’t get worse.

As much as I'd like to have him back next year, I doubt that happens. I only hope that Malik doesn’t decide to make a change once his best friend moves on. So easy to do in today’s world.

Relatively, the Big Ten is about as good a conference as any out there.  That speaks more to how weak and wide open D1 is this season.  Most of the "blue bloods" suck.  If Turdue with all it's flaws is the overall #1 seed, that should tell you a lot about how down D1 is this year.  On the plus side, that means about 30 teams could win it all...including IU.

Right on the money….it’s wide open this year, and there for the taking - just gotta get hot and stay hot come Tournament time!

You young guys. Look up Kevin McHale. Holmes moves around the basket look really similar 

Good comparison, and that’s why I think we could play South Carolina tough. With their twin towers you can’t just go straight up or you’ll get your shot blocked - just ask LSU. Holmes could be a real challenge for them, with all her moves around a the basket, and the ability to step out and hit the 10 footer. Would love to see this matchup in the National Championship final.

I’ll go with that…IUWBB just seem to get better every game! They lead 54-29 over OSU @ Half!

Can’t overstate how good that 1st half was!

Not IU, but my company has season tickets court side under the Duke basket at Cameron Indoor. They’re about 15ft from the Duke bench, and you could hear Coach K swearing like a crazy man during timeouts. I know it’s not AH and some will say “who cares”, but we are talking about best seats for a game, so that’s what I have to offer. Ok, now here comes the grief for bringing up Duke!

We’ve got to play good defense, and take care of the ball to have a chance to win. If I recall, Audige killed us in AH, with six steals.

From what I saw yesterday, IU is easily the second best team in the country, and clearly better than LSU. We’re probably the only team that could legitimately challenge South Carolina.

I still think a lot would have to happen for them not to win it. But there is a little more pressure now.  The only game they have remaining that I’d classify as “easy” is home vs Ohio State. The issue is IU (or any of the 5 loss teams) basically has to win out for a realistic shot at catching PU.

Agree, not easy, but becoming a possibility.

All the sudden there’s pressure on Purdue for the B10 title, because there’s a good chance they lose at Maryland too.

Now we go into Evanston and make a statement!

All in all a good day in college basketball yesterday - Kentucky loses, Duke loses and we win! Now let’s see if NW can take care of Purdue today.

TJD was absolutely gassed on that last free throw attempt, but our defense came through big time.

What a crazy year….Stanford (11-14) beats Arizona. Didn’t look anything like the team we played.

I wonder how many CBB teams have won a game this season with 6 three point attempts 

Not many, but there isn’t anyone else that has TJD.

Great defense in the second half. Now on to NW!

NO FOULS!!!!

We could have put this game away….instead two turnovers in row!

Don’t want to be too hard on Tamar, but man I thought he’d be so much better than this.

TJD is tired.
