Indiana will play its fourth time on the road in five games at Iowa on Saturday, Jan. 25 with a tip time of 7 p.m. ET. The contest will be IU's fifth game in an 11 day span. The game will be televised live on the Big Ten Network. 

 

• Indiana's 15 wins this season marks the most for an IU team in a single year since the 2008-09 campaign.

 

• First year players have accounted for 75.5 percent of IU's total points scored this season.

 

• IU has scored 80 or more points in 10 games this season, a program first since the 1974-75 season.

 

• Indiana has hit 141 3-point field goals this season which is just seven shy of breaking into the top 10 for most team 3-point field goals made in a single season in school history.

 

• Indiana leads the Big Ten in 3-pointers made per game (7.4).

 

• IU ranks sixth in the country and first in the Big Ten in fewest turnovers per game (12.2).

 

• IU's 14-game winning streak to start the season was the longest in school history and the 14-0 record to begin the year was the best start ever to a season in program history.

 

• The Hoosiers were one of the final four remaining undefeated teams in the country.

Who is watching?

Who is watching?

I am.  Allowing wide open looks to Iowa, too many breakdowns on D.  The ladies don't play zone any better than the guys do.

 

The more I see Agler play, the more I like her.

[JSHoosier 19,565]

Oof, a screen like that will certainly clean out the cob webs.  I've been on both sides of a screen like that (defender and screener), not fun being on the receiving end.

[IU Hoosier41 14,465]

Yea that screen was nasty. Defense looks horrible tonight. Iowa can score at will

[IU Hoosier41 14,465]

Ours men's team could use some of these shooters.

Our men's team is so bad at shooting 3's I feel like I'm watching a three-point shooting juggernaut when I watch the ladies.

Haha I was thinking the same thing. Ball is going in so easily. What gives men?

[JSHoosier 19,565]

It's not unlike watching the men play.  Zone defense sucks, and too many turnovers.  The ladies have basketball players though where the men have too many athletes that need to become basketball players.

 

I would love to have someone like Agler behind the arc instead of Robinson or Williams or Etherington or....

[TheWatShot 13,335]

I know these gals are freshmen, but I'd love to know what makes them think passing into a quadruple-team in the post is a good idea. That's the third time it's happened tonight. 

[JSHoosier 19,565]

Every time we got close we started throwing it away every time down the court letting Iowa space it out again.

 

And Agler with another 3.  I will gladly trade one Evan Gordon for one Taylor Agler.

[JSHoosier 19,565]

Just as I talk good about Agler, she gets a layup blocked.  Thanks, Taylor.

 

Although she followed it up with yet another 3.

[JSHoosier 19,565]

Another L.  Too many turnovers and not much defensive intensity.

[TheWatShot 13,335]

Schedule gets a little easier now. The next three are all winnable: home vs. NU, at Illinois, home vs. Wisconsin. 

[IU Hoosier41 14,465]

Tough skid for the ladies. Hopefully they can turn it around soon.
