Called it. Our poor SOS, bad losses and poor showing in the BTT killed IU.

Nailed it! Brings me no joy in being right.

As a fellow Hoosier in GA, this is such a good analogy.

I think that they have slipped to a 5 seed...and here's why...almost every team in the AP top 25 has had a better start to the post-season than the Hoosiers...and let's not kid ourselves, these games matter to the committee,as they are going to give the teams that are playing at their peak in the post-season, the higher seeds. I realize that the Hoosiers were playing well coming into the BTT; however, losing to a ranked team in the semi's is different that losing to an unranked team in the quarters. It is all about perception.

Oh...I am ready and prepared. I got a full keg of beer and two bottles of JW Black.

I am not going to predict any more games on this message board ever again.  Book it.

Note to Fred Glass/IU AD Department...please now and forever, opt out of the BTT.

Have been saying 1st round loss since back in December...sticking by that.

Agreed...as the beer will be flowing for the game.

It's FRIDAY!  Not sure how much work I am going to get done before noon.

I like this match up better than if IU had to play Northwestern.  Olah is a load and TB would have serious problems with him...again.   Anyway...am saying the Hoosiers start cold, close the first half strong, up maybe 5, and then come out second half, tear it open, but win by less than 10. 

Hoosiers, Illinois (what an awful game...can neither team win?), MSU and Maryland.   After only hitting one of the games yesterday, I am hoping for some improved results.  Go Hoosiers!

Not so fast my friend.

The Vandy-UT ending is crazy.

I wish they never started the BTT.

A great game to kick off Thursday...going to be a long day/night. 

Love it!

Forgot about Olah. That guy is a load to handle.

When I first saw this, I thought that there something wrong with my TV or I just saw it wrong...then I figured out that there is something wrong with ESPN.

What is the problem with this, exactly?   Not every kid that we get is going to be a superstar from day one.  I remember watching IU back in the Knight days and most guys didn't even get a whiff of the court until they were juniors...when they were actually ready to play.   Am I the only one on here who thinks that we need 4 year players?

I didn't take this week off, but for the previous 10 years I have take the first week of the NCAAs off.  I am working from home today and tomorrow.

OK...don't get me wrong, I love the way that OG plays, but Calbert was one of the best college players that I have ever seen.  Averaged 17/game as a frosh.  Let's hope that OG can be at least as half as good as Calbert.  

Got to do what you got to do. Somethings are more important (but not many).

The real fun begins today and lasts for 4 glorious days...and then the madness begins.  Best time of the year. 

NW, Iowa, OSU and Wisc.
