Maedhros Posted February 6, 2023 Report Share Posted February 6, 2023 It's a week late, but well deserved. Some big, big matchups to close the year: I would never pick against this team inside Assembly Hall. With the way Ohio State has been playing, they don't scare me at all. It's going to be Indiana vs Iowa to decide the Big Ten. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maedhros Posted February 7, 2023 Report Share Posted February 7, 2023 With the women's continued success, I hope that in coming seasons IU moves toward selling actual seats for these games instead of General Admission. I bought tickets to the game on the 19th, because it was last remaining weekend home game we could get to. But it's also senior day. Against Purdue. The place is going to be packed. My wife doesn't do well with crowds. If it's an assigned seat that's okay because we know where we're going to go and we know there will be a place for us when we get there. There's structure. That's my preference in most cases too, especially with crowds this size. GA is fine for concerts where you stand up and move. It's terrible for packed bleachers. With the noon start, the drive from Indy, and the need to scramble to find a seat when we get there, I don't think it's going to be a pleasant experience for us. I'd love to be at the game, but with GA seating I'm leaning toward staying home when otherwise I'd be there for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IUFLA Posted February 8, 2023 Report Share Posted February 8, 2023 (edited) Revsine is interviewing Mackenzie Holmes on BTN right now... As great of an ambassador TJD is for IU men's basketball, Mackenzie is just as great on the women's side...

Get there 1-1/2 hrs before tip and I bet you will be happy. Don't go to the bath room or concessions together, that way your seat are saved. Don't over think it, just plan accordingly.

btownqb Posted February 10, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2023 So Carolina plays LSU on Sunday at home. Hope SC wins and we'll be #2 across the board, at that point. JMO--if we win the next 2 and LSU losses to SC, I think we are a solidified 1 seed. No one has the amount of wins that we have. 5 wins vs. current Top 15 competition and most of those were 8 points+ 6 wins vs. current Top 25 teams in NET... along with 4 more wins inside the Top 42 in the NET. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad to see the hall rocking as well. In a way it's a loud and clear message to all of our programs. Winning at a big time level can be done and if you do that the IU fans will support you. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless of what SC and LSU do, IU is firmly entrenched as one of the four #1 seeds. There is no arguing their resume. As you've pointed out, it's just too good. The SEC teams get the benefit of playing one another, so either team winning gets a "boost" by beating the other. That means IU's ceiling is likely the second overall seed. Ultimately, it doesn't change much, as IU would still get home court advantage through the majority of the Tournament. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There would be quite a bit of distance between IU and 3rd, imo, if SC handles LSU. Any cushion is nice... and it would also allow us to move up in the Coaches poll. Also... I would hope if we are 2nd or 3rd "1 seed" we can be on the opposite side of the bracket as SC.

The Buckeyes have slumped lately but I believe are still ranked in the top 15, so another great win. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steubenhoosier Posted February 20, 2023 Report Share Posted February 20, 2023 BTN had a great interview with CTM on their show at noon today. She does such a great job representing IU and deflects praise so that her players get all the accolades Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya think so, Sydney? Time the best basketball players male and female stay home. No reason to go out of state to play top notch basketball. Saw that Amiyah Reynolds was going to Maryland...👎 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
