812hoosier Posted March 8, 2021 Report Share Posted March 8, 2021 Here is the bracket. Not that I think this team can make a run, but this bracket sets up pretty nicely if this team can find anything. No Purdue, Ohio St, or Michigan on IU side.

IUFLA Posted March 8, 2021 Report Share Posted March 8, 2021 Michigan fans can't be happy seeing Sparty looming...And even that is dependent on which Maryland team shows up... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cbp4IU Posted March 8, 2021 Report Share Posted March 8, 2021 I like Illinois’s draw. I think they could coast to the final. Interesting Wisconsin Iowa matchup looming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxnJxn Posted March 8, 2021 Report Share Posted March 8, 2021 Yah, this is about as good a draw as we could ask for to make a run. Yes, I'm still holding on to every last thread of hope that this team can do something. It also likely spares CAM the indignity of losing to Purdue three times in a season, so I guess that's something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaloisGroupe Posted March 8, 2021 Report Share Posted March 8, 2021 We were a PSU comeback away from an even better draw. If MD had not let that game slip through their fingers at the end, we would have had them in first round... We have not shown anything in the two Rutgers game to suggest that we can beat them. They are a bad match-up... My only hope of a run lies in the fact that the "pressure" making the tournament is over (i.e., it would require winning the BTT). Maybe we can come out loose, have a little fun, and surprise some people. Personally, I love the players on this team and think if they could enjoy themselves again, they can win a couple games.

Seeking6 Posted March 10, 2021 Report Share Posted March 10, 2021 How is this for good signs but eventually a bad one. We know how it difficult it is to beat a team 3x in a season. With that information I expect us to beat Rutgers, Illinois....get to 14-14 and people are saying hey....we might be moving into bubble territory again only to get beat by either Sparty or Purdue to nix the 3x in one season myth. I did find Turgeon's comments interesting today. He said yep...9-11 in conference and no question in his mind they are a tourney team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

13th&Jackson Posted March 11, 2021 Report Share Posted March 11, 2021 Rutgers isn’t that good, but IU made them look better than they are. They haven’t beaten a team above them in the B1G since December. Unfortunately, they’re more physical than skilled and IU plays scared against them.

IU Scott Posted March 11, 2021 Report Share Posted March 11, 2021 Minnesota finished the game on a 12-0 run to win 51-46. Both teams shot poorly from the field and the line and wonder if it had anything to playing in the Dome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the second game in a row that he has struggled. Can’t help but think that it’s catching up with him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NotIThatLives Posted March 11, 2021 Report Share Posted March 11, 2021 Hoiberg has put this team of misfit parts together. Dude can coach ball. Had we been looking that year he would have been a top option. I think he settled way to soon with the Huskers. They have spent the money out there though, top notch facilities. He has a 5 star kid coming next year. He is only just beginning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
