Hoosier51 Posted December 1, 2021 Report Share Posted December 1, 2021 Turnovers is killing this team. It is as simple as that 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Who-Dey Hoosier Posted December 1, 2021 Report Share Posted December 1, 2021 (edited) We got embarrassed in the first half. Our coach made adjustments and the team responded, hell of a game and makes me excited for the future!

He looked to roll an ankle or knee but came back and got yanked in a REALLY big spot never to be seen again. Are you kidding me? Injured again? RP has been a bust....

Zuckerkorn Posted December 1, 2021 Report Share Posted December 1, 2021 After that first half, no way we get to OT under the previous staff. None the less there was plenty of good and plenty of bad in this game. I'm pleased we got that first road game in a hostile environment under our belts. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madmax Posted December 1, 2021 Report Share Posted December 1, 2021 Hell of a comeback. Wasn’t pretty but the team showed a ton of grit. Love to see it. Now let’s take it out on Nebraska on Saturday. These might have been the WORST announcers I have ever heard cover a basketball game. Completely emotionless and boring. Not to mention obviously Syracuse fans. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John S Posted December 1, 2021 Report Share Posted December 1, 2021 2 minutes ago, Euroclydon said: Very winnable game handed to Syracuse. Veteran guards fouling out. Race with 7 turnovers and 25 as a team. Still not sure why they continually left shooters to hedge against slow guys who didnt want to dribble anyway. Couldn't get a shot to win it because Lander couldn't make a pass. Then Lander couldn't catch a pass. Not picking on him but had a veteran player been in the game they wouldn't have to rely on a freshman. Defense needs to go back to the drawing board. Agree turnovers must be corrected. But, the rebounding, shooting %, energy level are all good signs. Road wins are a challenge. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fiveoutofsix Posted December 1, 2021 Report Share Posted December 1, 2021 4 minutes ago, IUCrazy2 said: We shot 56% for the game. Just lower to 20 turnovers instead of 25 and we likely win the game. I bet when the team watches the tape they are not going to beleive some of the turnovers. Race was a warrior out there - he struggled when doubled and had to pass out. If only they played some of that 2nd half D when they had fresh legs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a reason Purdue is number 2 and IU is unranked.

CTrojan88 Posted December 1, 2021 Report Share Posted December 1, 2021 The loss sucks but I am so damn excited to see IU compete again ! Last year and several before it, they would have lost that game by 30 points. This game will provide dividends down the road, I’m sure of it. 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loviubb Posted December 1, 2021 Report Share Posted December 1, 2021 Great game!!! Bad out come! Last few years we would have been blown out. There is still a ways to get where we want to be but getting there is going to be fun! PS I thought Durr played well while in there! There is a LOT to LIKE and dislike that I feel will be handled in the future! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post bluegrassIU Posted December 1, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted December 1, 2021 Encouraging loss. We showed so much more than we have in years. And the room to grow is limitless. Hate losing, it stings. But I like where we are going. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you take the bad (25 turnovers), you're going to be a mediocre team. Purdue doesn't turn the ball over. They play smart basketball. They play unselfish. We can be really good. I have no doubt. We have the talent to beat anyone. But if we don't fix our biggest Achilles heel, we are going to struggle in some games we gotta win. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerseyHoosier Posted December 1, 2021 Report Share Posted December 1, 2021 (edited) When you turn the ball over 25 times, you leave the game in the hands of refs who were inconsistent all night...for both teams at points. And if we play the first half like we play the rest of the game, we win in regulation hands down. Regardless of the loss, I can't believe this ended 112-110. Not many games in college basketball that will end with those offensive numbers this season, even with two overtimes.

But its the first road test for this group in a really tough environment new coach, new players, new system, on the road. I think we will steadily see improvement. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5fouls Posted December 1, 2021 Report Share Posted December 1, 2021 I don't watch recorded games we lose, so I can't speak to how bad the turnovers were, but 25 on the road is a recipe for disaster. Surprised we were as close as we were. Pulled into the driveway at the end of the first OT. Fisch was so frustrated we did not get a shot off. That possession and Parker fouling out were the two biggest plays that I heard/saw that contributed to the loss. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
