IUFLA Posted December 1, 2018 Report Share Posted December 1, 2018 I expect Northwestern to come out and put some type of full court pressure on us early. Chris Collins is no dummy and he saw what it did to us with Duke (and I would imagine he talked to Coach K about us). My hope is that we break the pressure (as NW doesn't have the athletes Duke does) and score some easy baskets off of it. Our guys need to aggressively come to the ball when the ball handler gets trapped. We didn't do that against Duke. If we can handle the pressure, I think we win comfortably. If not, dog fight.

IU 77 NW 70 Collins is a good coach and he'll have them ready to play. Still this is one we should win comfortably at home. NW is probably the 9th best team in the B1G. I say IU by 12.

IU 77 NW 70 My thoughts exactly. I'm sure there was some practice time spent on attacking the pressure D , cutting down turnovers and being strong with the ball. Fitzner mentioned it in the press conference. Now we just have to see how the players execute. Will be looking forward to see the starting lineups.

Seeking6 Posted December 1, 2018 Report Share Posted December 1, 2018 I just don't think we lose at home this year. Northwestern can try to do whatever. We win going away. IU 78 Northwestern 62 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StLHoosier Posted December 1, 2018 Report Share Posted December 1, 2018 I think the team will come out determined and focused after the last performance. Archie said this week was some of the best practices the team has had. IU - 81 NW - 62 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rico Posted December 1, 2018 Report Share Posted December 1, 2018 I expect us to win by around that 20 point margin. Get ahead early and slowly pull away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosier Guy Posted December 1, 2018 Report Share Posted December 1, 2018 IU has to win this game. If they lose to Northwestern at home, I’ll be a little concerned Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
