Hoosierfan1901 Posted January 23, 2021 Report Share Posted January 23, 2021 I still wouldn’t take them easily at all, since RU are hungry for a win, but expecting it be within 5 points if we win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KoB2011 Posted January 23, 2021 Report Share Posted January 23, 2021 This is a game we really should win, and frankly, a game we need to win if we want to finish over .500 in conference play. Not saying we can't get to over .500 without this game, but the path starts to look pretty daunting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the type of game we've lost over the last several years (including the backend of Crean's tenure) which gets the fanbase so frustrated. We beat the #4 team in country at their place and then you have Rutgers at home. You have to win this game, especially with 3 straight vs. ranked teams afterwards. This game is the difference between 5th/6th and 9th/10th place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosierhoopster Posted January 24, 2021 Report Share Posted January 24, 2021 We are literally last in the B1G in 3-pointers made. I’m sorry it’s not because we don’t have guys who can hit the 3. If CAM will loosen up the outside offense a bit we can win running away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeking6 Posted January 24, 2021 Report Share Posted January 24, 2021 Given that we won't play again until a week from Tuesday....no way I want to wait around for 9 days with a loss. Absolute must win for momentum to continue. Sure would be nice to come out hot and cruise instead of having to fight back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only other guy that concerns me is Baker. He's their version of Devonte Green. He hasn't had "good Devonte" moments in the games I've seen, so here's hoping that trend continues. Montez Mathis can be that way too... This is not a good road club. Weren't last year either. 2-8 on the road (11-9 overall in conference) in the B1G last year and 1-3 this year. Be interesting to see their mindset coming off a loss to PSU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Them losing to Penn St, season derailing....maybe we get their absolute best stuff today is my worry. They beat Illinois/Purdue and had 2 point loss to Iowa. So certainly capable.

I think we've all seen what bad chemistry does to a team. We've dealt with it for a few years, and I think they're dealing with it now. Unless some attitudes change really quickly, they're going to continue to struggle. The 2 kids that DO put winning in front of their numbers seem to be Miles Johnson, and the Mulcahy kid. Both are nice players, but Baker, Young, and Mathis have to acknowledge who "the guy" (Harper) is and adjust their games to get him good looks...

Reacher Posted January 24, 2021 Report Share Posted January 24, 2021 I hope Rutgers doesn't decide to get back on track today. We need to keep winning and building confidence. With a long break after this one, it would be nice to get a double digit win and really turn the corner for this team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Play like Thursday and no team is getting back on track vs IU. We all fear the hangover, but with a solid response today, hopefully Thursday was THE turning point of the season and possibly Archie’s tenure here. And to think it all started with the L3al bomb!!

KoB2011 Posted January 24, 2021 Report Share Posted January 24, 2021 Really need to win today; with the Michigan game postponed I think we could use this as a springboard to win 6, 7, maybe even 8 out of a 9 game stretch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a good feeling about this one which is very strange for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
