Courtsensetwo Posted January 8 Report Share Posted January 8 The Fighting Snookies continue to look for validation, and we’ll easily be the biggest game on their schedule at The Dump. I don’t make predictions, but this one isn’t difficult to forecast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IUFLA Posted January 8 Author Report Share Posted January 8 I think with Rutgers having 3 small, quick guards they rotate, that Gabe will get some run here... I also think Walker and Gunn will get some time on Mag and Hyatt...Not sure Mac is a good fit for either one... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m waiting for the pendulum to swing and Mac is the mismatch that makes opposition change their lineup. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU Scott Posted January 8 Report Share Posted January 8 I am wondering how MM will react to going home to play in New Jersey. Some players come out and are to hyped up and don't play well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So passing will be limited and ball security will be the key. Long field goals could be impacted by the wind, so scoring from close will be important. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bronkonagurski Posted January 8 Report Share Posted January 8 I don't like Rutgers. They are annoying. Their arena is annoying. Beating them would bring me extra satisfaction. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beating them would bring me extra satisfaction. They are the least natural fit in the Big Ten (currently). The only comparable is Maryland until the west coast teams show up.

John S Posted January 8 Report Share Posted January 8 Despite the location, Northwestern doesn’t seem like a natural fit, imo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosierfan1901 Posted January 9 Report Share Posted January 9 Seems like RU maybe worried on a low crowd turnout due to their storms tomorrow. Still going to be tough as we haven’t won there in 6 years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BGleas Posted January 9 Report Share Posted January 9 Looking forward to watching this game! Obviously a huge opportunity to pick up a road win that I would expect would move the needle a bit in rankings such as NET and KenPom. With that said, I'm coming into this one with tempered expectations, not because I don't think we can win, it's just that we've seen time and time again that winning on the road in the Big Ten is really hard. Mainly looking for IU to play hard, play smart and compete. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mainly looking for IU to play hard, play smart and compete. According to their "insiders" their backcourt has an issue with bigger guards... Simpson (who I think will draw Trey) is 6'3 and Fernandes (XJ) is 5'11... Also think they'll use Omoruyi on Malik and Mag on Ware which is a mismatch deluxe... Looking for XJ, Trey, and Walker, as seniors, to create energy... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inequality Posted January 9 Report Share Posted January 9 Winnable game if we have a good showing. They are winless in the B1G so far. Part of me says the IU curse will show its face and they will play their best game yet. Remaining 40% says we finally rock The Rack. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
