rbkl Posted January 13, 2019 Report Share Posted January 13, 2019 After two back to back losses for the first time this season, Indiana looks to get back in the W column at home on Monday night. Both teams 12-4 on the season and Kenpom predicts a slight edge for Indiana. IU has a 57% chance to win and the predicted score is 73-71. Nebraska has a great starting five, but they are arguably not as deep as even a depleted Indiana team Hope to get Rob Phinisee back to regular form Win is critical as Indiana goes back on the road with games at Purdue and at Northwestern on the docket Cornhuskers have the second most efficient offense in the conference, so Indiana's defense will be tested once again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbmhoosier Posted January 13, 2019 Report Share Posted January 13, 2019 Absolute must win game and I think we win by about 10. Nebraska really hasn't played anyone other than TT and they got smoked. I hope they bring their scorecards for when Romeo dunks on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FKIM01 Posted January 13, 2019 Report Share Posted January 13, 2019 I'm ready to see our guys get angry and curb-stomp a team and I think they are capable this game. If Nebraska wins, I'll be taking some time off from HSN. I have no interest in contributing to the ugliness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeking6 Posted January 13, 2019 Report Share Posted January 13, 2019 Students finally back. Need a win against a team who I think will hang around top 30 all year. I think IU by 13. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CauseThatsMyDJ Posted January 13, 2019 Report Share Posted January 13, 2019 When: Monday, 1/14 at 6:30pm ET on FSI Vegas: IU -1 ESPN: #28 IU vs #14 Nebraska. 57% chance of IU victory with an expected margin of IU +2 KenPom: #24 IU vs #15 Nebraska. 57% chance of IU victory with an expected score of IU 73, Nebraska 71 IU Scouting Report Nebraska Scouting Report For the first time this year, our offense is rated higher than our defense. However, Nebraska has a much better rated offense and just a slightly lesser rated defense. We are the better shooting team both from 2 and from 3. Our turnovers have gotten better, inside the top 200, but Nebraska takes care of the ball, ranked 13th in the country. They also shoot free throws better. Crashing the defensive glass is going to be key for IU. Have to limit second chances. Nebraska isn't a great offensive rebounding team, so that should be to our advantage. Defensively, Nebraska is 8th in the country in field goal percentage allowed. Their advantage comes from 2p defense, which really shouldn't be a problem for us to work around. Both teams are pretty good at forcing turnovers, so we'll need to continue to take care of the ball like we have the past two games. Nebraska's biggest weakness on D is giving up second chances. Smith and Morgan will need to be seeking out offensive rebounds. James Palmer Jr is their key guy, averaging 20 ppg. They have 3 other guys averaging double figures so they are pretty well-rounded. We will need to limit their sharpshooter, Glynn Watson Jr, who is shooting 42% from three. They also have four other guys shooting above 34% from behind the arc. This is a pretty good offensive team, the defense will have its work cut out for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotIThatLives Posted January 13, 2019 Report Share Posted January 13, 2019 Pegram has a story up, evidently CAM is saying or has said once again that Moore and Forrester may be seeing some minutes. The drum beat must be loud enough. Oh and McBob hasn't scored in his last 146 mins . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FWIUFan Posted January 13, 2019 Report Share Posted January 13, 2019 Why CAM is tentative regarding playing Anderson/Forrester/Moore given the lack of production from Fitz and McBob is enigmatic to me to say the least. Maybe Nebraska is the turning point in CAM's attitude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I will say, that many of the teams we have beaten, like Louisville, and Marquette, are doing wonders to strengthen our SOS and bracket.
