Both of them are playing their best ball. Sadly that's probably likely. Just look at our remaining games. Where are the wins going to come from? Go Hoosiers!!!

They have the right guy to just do that. Woukd not even be a little surprised for them to do that. Only 2 times ever has a team only 2 games over 500 made the tourney.

IU hopes getting dimmer and dimmer I won't be shocked if they do it, either, but I'm just saying if we are bringing up the schedule theirs is harder than ours. We will see several teams this year get in with resumes that in the past might not have, because there were less non-conference games. You can completely throw that one out the window IMO.

I am not so sure. It very well could be but I don't think it will be.much different unless more mistakes majors and less middle of the pack P5 teams Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They woke up last 8 minutes against us and it continued. Did you see the video of team in locker room all around Izzo celebrating.

Yes...they need the high quality wins too. Beating Penn st wouldn’t move their tournament needle. Top 10 wins even if they go 500 over them will. I wonder since our two big wins are both Iowa if that doesn’t hurt us. Like we would be better off splitting with another top team. Sometimes teams just matchup well like we do with Iowa. Wonder if they use that against us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeking6 Posted February 25, 2021 Report Share Posted February 25, 2021 Hearing some chatter on Ayo from Illinois this morning. Might be out. Sissoko had a flagrant vs them on Tuesday.

Hopefully he’s OK and 100% tourney time (unless IU plays them Round 2 of B1G tourney). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If those years get brought up sure but many of my Purdue fans love to just blurt it out even when no one is talking about championships. Besides...I don’t think Purdue or Illinois this year could win it all...so I don’t want excuses for when they don’t. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU Scott Posted February 26, 2021 Report Share Posted February 26, 2021 Watching Iowa and UM and UM had had 3 guys over 6'8 on the floor at all time do far.
