FritzIam4IU Posted December 18, 2021 Report Posted December 18, 2021 Notre Dame is not very good...but it always feels good to beat them. Onto the next.
Hoosierfan1901 Posted December 18, 2021 Report Posted December 18, 2021 We covered the spread at least
Drroogh Posted December 18, 2021 Report Posted December 18, 2021 Rob give us more of that, thank you!
Inequality Posted December 18, 2021 Report Posted December 18, 2021 GG. Still lots to improve on but the poise is getting better. On to the next one.
BobSaccamanno Posted December 18, 2021 Report Posted December 18, 2021 Good defensive performance. Played physical in the second half. Offense was stagnant. Need more offense off the wing and we will have much more flow.
mookied39 Posted December 18, 2021 Report Posted December 18, 2021 Relieved and completely shocked to see ND give up there when they cut it to 8. I'll take the W.

Parakeet Jones Posted December 18, 2021 Report Posted December 18, 2021 Woody said before the season started of we could play good defense, we would give ourselves a chance to win. That’s what we did today and what our M.O. will be this year. It’s never going to be pretty this year so I’ll just enjoy the Ws however they come.
dbmhoosier Posted December 18, 2021 Report Posted December 18, 2021 We did something UK couldn't do. I'll take it. https://kentucky.forums.rivals.com/threads/iu-at-nd-today.357059/
Hippopotamo Posted December 18, 2021 Report Posted December 18, 2021 This is a big win. We played poorly against a bad team away from home and took care of business. Really can’t lose that game.

Jackson Kellogs Posted December 18, 2021 Report Posted December 18, 2021 Can we wrap Xavier Johnson up as a Christmas present and ship him to PA
kyhoosier29 Posted December 18, 2021 Report Posted December 18, 2021 Not a very well played game, but a win is a win. Results are what I’m after! I’ll be disappointed if we don’t take a 7 game win streak into Iowa City. OSU at home should be the only true challenge and being at AH we have to win those games!
Hoosier51 Posted December 18, 2021 Report Posted December 18, 2021 Needed that win, ND was a team feeling good about themselves after their Kentucky victory so it was good to beat them. This Hoosiers team will have to rely on their defense until the offense catches up to it. Great to see Rob getting his confidence back and starting to play pretty good. Also although his defense needs some work Leal has been giving the Hoosiers some good minutes. Wesley is going to be a good one for the Irish

But frustrating to imagine what could happen if Trace played hard for 2 halves and if we ran the ball against inferior teams.
94hoosier Posted December 18, 2021 Report Posted December 18, 2021 Rob and X both hit big threes down the stretch like the confidence to take and make That’s the kind on shot x needs to take. With the offense. Not on one or no pass. He will win you some games and maybe loose some but he will play hard. Got to like that

If we play like today, no long win streaks this year.

ND made their comeback once he came out. He was also 2-9 from three and 3-11 overall… he was supposed to be the guy who drives and gives our shooters/big men the ball. He did the same thing against Wisconsin and is why we lost. Once he missed 3 in a row impact the game another way.
Seeking6 Posted December 18, 2021 Report Posted December 18, 2021 9-2 with 11-2 likely before conference starts. 20 win team and a tournament team. I'll go back to the 2-3 plays on D by Race and Leal along with extra passes...difference in game. Loved seeing Rob get his run. X is just a guy that is going to be good with the bad and I think I'm ok with that so far. Guard spacing for open 3 will get better when they know TJD is getting triple teamed.......some stuff to tighten up for sure. Love what Parker is bringing....but everyone is trying to figure out their roll. Long season. Winning while learning.

We have to win with defense. We're rarely going to blow teams out...especially in conference.
