dwtaylor1055 Posted January 10, 2019 Report Share Posted January 10, 2019 I will give my prediction once I see if RP or DeRon is cleared to play. We REALLY need this win, especially with Ohio St, Houston and Auburn all losing last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy06 Posted January 10, 2019 Report Share Posted January 10, 2019 I am guessing we will be slight underdogs tomorrow. Probably a pk on a neutral floor, so3.5 to 4 pt dogs. I have no doubt we will make a run in the second half. The only question is, do we show up to play early and that run gives us a cushion so we are playing with a lead? Or do we do our typical slow start and that is a mad rush to make it a game late? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am going to step out on that limb and say we will not start slow in this game. That was a clear focus of CAM's post-game comments after the UM game, and he basically called out Morgan to take control and demand the ball early -- comments that of course the whole team heard.

Billingsley99 Posted January 10, 2019 Report Share Posted January 10, 2019 with or without RP we win by 5. 76-71. Jump on them early withstand the runs and finish strong at the line to seal the deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, and hope you are correct. Slow starts haven't been an isolated incident. I think the team can focus on that and come out ready this game. But it needs to be a concerted effort all season. It can be very easy to slip back to status quo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NCHoosier32 Posted January 10, 2019 Report Share Posted January 10, 2019 i think looking at who has already lost ahead of us, we'd probably move up 3-4 spots in the rankings if we pull this off. it would be huge to get a conference road win here. i think RP and DD status makes a huge difference. pretty impressive showing to throttle MN on the road this week.

IU Scott Posted January 10, 2019 Report Share Posted January 10, 2019 In the past the big ten played only on Thursday/Saturday so they were use to short turn around. It made it easier to know when your team was playing and with them having travel partners it was easy to remember who you were playing in that week.

btownqb Posted January 10, 2019 Report Share Posted January 10, 2019 Fridays are for HS games. Not college. Same in football season, absolute crap we played @Minnesota on a Friday. I would have gone to the Minnesota game if it weren't for playing on a Friday. Ignorance by the Big Ten and Delaney. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I remember like IU would play at Michigan St. on Thursday and at Michigan on Saturday. Then ESPN came along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjeze106 Posted January 10, 2019 Report Share Posted January 10, 2019 Rob P hasn't been cleared yet to do any sort of contact in practice/games and it sounds very unlikely that he will play tomorrow. This was according to CAM at the press conference just now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't imagine a competitor being happy with this long of a layoff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
