Ugh, that loss was bad. How many offensive rebounds did Minny come down with? For the love of God.
Also, for the best 3pt% shooting team in the country, they were 4/20 I think. If they hit those open (yes they were wide open) shots they win this going away. Fucking fuck.

That is the danger in being a 3-point shooting team.....I am sure they will find the range in time for Sunday's game.If they hit those open (yes they were wide open) shots they win this going away. ****ing ****.

Yeah, I know. Just odd that they missed them at home. Hulls and Watford have been lights out in Bloomington.Prescott;1050866 wrote:That is the danger in being a 3-point shooting team.....I am sure they will find the range in time for Sunday's game.

I don't think it was the 3pt shooting that cost IU as much as they couldn't get stops when they needed them, and of course the offensive rebounding killed them as well. Very surprising loss playing at home for IU.Laley23;1050855 wrote:Ugh, that loss was bad. How many offensive rebounds did Minny come down with? For the love of God.

Very true. And as I told my dad, trying to calm him down lol, at least we are pissed about the loss and expected a win....Havent been able to say that for awhile and didnt expect it till next season. So thats a plus for the rest of 2011/12 really.vball10set;1051028 wrote:the good news is that it wasn't against Kentucky, Purdue or Illinois

That coincides with it though. Minny got some big buckets (Sampsons jumper), but for the most part IU got stops down the stretch...then didnt finish and get the rebound. Then Minny scored. So they ended up not getting the stops, but it wasnt because of the initial defense, it was the rebounding.centralbucksfan;1051095 wrote:I don't think it was the 3pt shooting that cost IU as much as they couldn't get stops when they needed them, and of course the offensive rebounding killed them as well.

I dislike B1G basketball, but this seriously could be a season where every single game might be worth watching. Even the top teams are succeptable every game, no matter where, on the road.

Nobody, and I mean NOBODY, has shown that they can win on the road with any consistency. However, as pointed out earlier, this is a national thing, not just a B1G thing (Kentucky was lucky to escape with a win against unranked Tennessee, for godsakesAzubuike24;1052114 wrote:I dislike B1G basketball, but this seriously could be a season where every single game might be worth watching.

Terrible loss for Michigan with the schedule they have over the next 6 games. Road games with Arkansas, Purdue, OSU, and MSU, and home for MSU and Indiana. They'd be really fortunate to go 3-3 in that stretch in my opinion.

Oh, and I'll make a bold claim and say Northwestern beats MSU with Gus on the call.

MSU going down. Down 11 with min to go. Big Ten is going to beat up on eachother. I said preseason, 5 losses could win it. Sticking to it.

NW was gonna knock off somebody this season. Didnt think it would be in such dominating fashion (double digits). Hopefully its out of their system and they dont knock of IU as well lol.

Pretty cool to see Robinson in the stands. Damn he loves college and it's great to see a star having fun like a normal college kid.

Yeah it was. Surprised they didnt have a nice inbounds play set up. Izzo is usually one of the very very best in the country at running set playsTiger2003;1056311 wrote:Yes it was. Great ending to the game.
