I’m feeling really good about tonight’s game….am I delusional?

No question we played really poor defense against the 3, but you still have make the shot even when wide open. Let’s face it, Michigan played out of their minds… just happens sometimes. We’ll bounce back and beat PSU by double digits.

As disappointing as this was, it wasn’t totally unexpected, especially after acting like we had won the national championship against Purdue. I can understand the excitement, but that just set us up for failure today. My guess is that we’ll bounce back and will be ready for Penn St and win easily. Still a lot of the season left, with plenty of time for more big wins.

Not much to say…we were never in the game. The classic let down after a big win.

Well we’re lucky to only be down by 8.

When you’re 7 ft, you don’t have to jump too high!

As good as our guards were last night, and don’t get me wrong they were fantastic, we don’t win that game without Durr’s outstanding defense on Edey and Williams. To hold those two guys to a combined 14 pts is really unbelievable, especially for a guy that averages about 5 min a game. I doubt that TJD would have done any better than that even if he had played most of the game. I haven’t looked at the stats, but I doubt anyone has done a better job against those guys all season long. Way to go Durr…you stepped up big time!

Correction - the team had 3 TOs, but Rob and XJ has 0 TOs between them.

Rob and XJ - 38 pts, 6 assists and ONLY 3 TOs!

Now let’s get Michigan on Sunday!

Wow!

Don’t want to get too excited…a long way to go, but WOW what a half!

And that’s not good for an old guy with a bad heart!

I’m stressed and the game hasn’t even started yet!

Nice win, especially since we played the end of the game without TJD. It wasn’t easy, but that’s why they play the game. Way to go Hoosiers!

Another BS call…he just lost he ball out of bounds!

I’m gettin that sinking feeling….somebody help me please.

4 seconds on the shot clock and we give up an and one… maddening!

Amazing how quickly we can let a 10 pt lead slip away.

He sure did!

Offensive rebounds are hurting us again.

Man these refs are whistle happy!

Refs are off to a great start….that call on JG was pathetic. Just an elite athlete going up and getting the ball. Just because you’re behind the other player doesn’t automatically make it an over the back.

I wish I didn’t feel so bad after a disappointing loss like last night, but I guess it’s because I grew up with the Hoosiers during the RMK era, and got spoiled watching those GREAT teams. Every year I keep thinking we’re about to turn the corner, and continue to be disappointed. We had a glimmer of hope with Zeller, Oladipo and company, but even then we fell short. Oh well, there’s always the next game and that’s Nebraska….go Hoosiers!
