Parakeet Jones Posted March 8, 2020 Report Share Posted March 8, 2020 Apologies to @milehiiu who usually starts these threads, but I have to mentally start shifting gears. I know it’s early, but let’s get on with it. The have suspended Burke and Mack indefinitely. We will see if that holds up until Wednesday. I know opinions are divided, but I am in the camp that says we win Wednesday we’re in, we lose we’re out. Hopefully we don’t lay our annual BTT egg. It’s going to be a loooooong wait until Wednesday. Anyone have an idea on tip time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MPM Posted March 8, 2020 Report Share Posted March 8, 2020 Game 1 is at 6, so tip should be around 8:45. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhinithreeMagic Posted March 8, 2020 Report Share Posted March 8, 2020 Hoping for an emphatic victory. Nebraska is bad and they will be shorthanded. A loss gives credence to the bubble talk. A win and it's a lock that we're in and likely in a 8/9 game. I don't think it's close to the In or Out we found ourselves in vs OSU last year.

Cbp4IU Posted March 8, 2020 Report Share Posted March 8, 2020 Time to go into the Big Ten tourney and win a few games. I would like IU to start Green Phinsee Race TJD and Durham to push the pace and try to get the Nebraska guards in foul trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IUFLA Posted March 8, 2020 Report Share Posted March 8, 2020 Devonte was gimpy for most of the 2nd half vs Bucky. I honestly thought he shouldn't have even been out there... Hope he's ready to go Wednesday... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IowaHoosierFan Posted March 8, 2020 Report Share Posted March 8, 2020 I would like to see TJD, Race, Hunter, Green and Rob. Bring Smith and Al of the bench. And even on a neutral court we should stomp Nebraska with the 4 scholarship players they have left Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shooter Posted March 8, 2020 Report Share Posted March 8, 2020 We really should blow this team out. Would expect the line to be IU -15 or more. Of course anything is possible though with IU in the BTT. Do we know who the 6 seed will be yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It depends on who wins the Illinois/Iowa, Michigan/Maryland and OSU/MSU games tomorrow.

iuthruandthru Posted March 8, 2020 Report Share Posted March 8, 2020 I predict someone someone will win this game. And that IU will miss a lot of free throws and go on at least two long scoring droughts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're entitled to be frustrated after seeing IU miss some easy shots and throw away a game they needed. I hear your frustration and don't blame you, but IU is getting closer and closer to what we expect. When this class of sophomores are seniors...look out.

Yes, they are general admission tickets for Wednesday for $6. No assigned seating and tickets are good for both games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we can't beat a team on a 15 game losing streak that just suspended 2 of their 3 best players, we don't deserve to be in the tourney. I'm okay with the season coming down to that.

I looked at Ticketmaster and they’re listed as $25, but they have seat assignments with them. StubHub just says general admission next to theirs. I’m thinking Ticketmaster is just putting seat assignments next to theirs for tracking number of possible tickets that can be sold. Might want to call BLF ticket office to confirm. They are offering an all sessions ticket package for $210, so maybe it’s only general admission for everyone else who is only attending on Wednesday.

DWB Posted March 8, 2020 Report Share Posted March 8, 2020 During the Neb game, I heard one of the announcers say something about the 2 suspended players. Said they were only suspended for 1 game. That would mean they're back for the BTT in total....if true. FYI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So they could be back for our game, or not. Husker hoops players Mack, Burke suspended indefinitely | Men's Basketball | journalstar.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
