Get this SEC crap off the TV. I want to see some real Basketball.

Damn.  I thought the game started at noon.  Well, I'm super early, but here's the official game thread.

Thank Goodness. I haven't put the pizza in yet.

Tie a yellow ribbon around the old oak tree when we make the Tourney. Till then, I'm done. And don't bother knocking 3 times. That's a different song. It doesn't matter. I'm not answering the door.

I understand, but I had a very uneasy feeling about this game. I've seen too many where the Hoosiers did not show up. There too many to mention.

Did not show up? On senior night? At home? To get into the tournament?  No Excuses. No Excuses. No Excuses. No Excuses. 😎

Losing to Rutgers at Assembly Hall should never happen. No Excuses. No Excuses. No Excuses. No Excuses. No Excuses.

We suck. I'm Not happy.

It really sucks not having Galloway back yet, but if we have Phinisee and Lander back for this game we will be okay.

I can't wait to get a framed IU jersey in the mail...  it's senior night, right? I have my AARP card. 🤫

IU wins by 10.

I was at my brother-in-laws having dinner and turned the game on at halftime. When we got almost a 30 point lead he said well this one is over. I told no way as this is Indiana. I told him it wouldn't surprise we one bit that the game would go into overtime and we would lose. When RP took the 3 point shot from the right side and missed everything I said that shot and the subsequent Minnesota 3 was a turning point in the game. This team has no killer instinct. 

Do me a favor. The next time you are at your brother-in-law's house and IU is winning by 30, don't turn the game on. Our NCAA tourney chances are already slim enough and there is no margin for error. 😎

God... Between IU basketball and ND football, my heart has suffered.

You follow North Dakota football? 🤔 😄

To put this in perspective, 30+ years ago, UK came back from 31 down with 15:30 left to beat LSU.  People still talk about that game.  We were up 27 with 8.01 on the clock and it became a 1 possession game.  smh

 

Correction on the time left on clock for the UK game.  Makes our almost collapse even more stunning.

I still remember listening to that UK-LSU game on the radio. I was so pissed that UK won.

80+ points and a road win. I'll take it. 

I've ALWAYS hated when the Hoosiers had to play at the barn. Hate that place.

Willis jumped in to him. Give me a break. Just make your free throws Hoosiers. Put this away.

Praying for Maurice.

Do you realize Christie Brinkley is now 68 years old?  Don't know if she's a grandma yet, but there is no way it's earthly possible that she's 68 years old.  

That's depressing as hell.

 

She had a kid with Billy Joel. That's what is depressing as hell.

Okay, that's just weird.

How old are you?

I joke. I swear I still think I'm 20 years old with good knees and can still run 20 miles. Sadly, those days are long gone. At least the Hoosiers won.

I know...every time I see Stewart at point guard I picture that dude on The Ed Sullivan Show spinning plates on sticks...

How old are you?

I really like this team.

Sorry...  what I meant to say is that Race Thompson is playing basketball at a very high level. 

Race is a beast!!!  😮

Seriously, if we win tonight, these need to be our home uniforms for the rest of the year.  

Whatever works is fine with me.

I'm fine with the uniforms. A one time thing. I think they look okay.
