We all most likely realize as you do that ranking is secondary to winning. Especially early in seasons. Especially if it is not the metric used by the NCAAT selection committee. Having said all that, it is something that we fans can complain about or brag about. It is an easy handle to discuss and easily compare in an acknowledged not to deep way. Much easier than saying this team beat that team on day one by a few points and comparing that and a myriad of other parameters to a bunch of teams over time. Back to the point...IU will get ranked if they keep winning; do better in the 2nd half; keep control of turnovers (under 15 or so); and shoot well; assuming defense is excellent; keep healthy; beat tougher competition.

Hit the road, Jack 59 Crimson turnover over and over 81 JSU @ Marshall https://gojsutigers.com/news/2021/11/21/mens-basketball-tigers-fall-on-the-road-to-thundering-herd.aspx

Final...IU by 2 - 0!

BG shot hits crossbar. IU at other end centers from left right across point zero...missed bunny.

Goal IU.

IU offense keeps going long left. Both goalies are not being successful with setting up offenses. BG's goalie just kicks it out of bounds for IU throw in. IU has had more opportunities but we will see. Most came in the last 25 minutes.

0 - 0 at the half.

Momentum is shifting to IU.

BG is controlling.

Watching it on BTN+. 6 hours left on my 1 month. One camera. Lol. Listening to jazz.

I knew some people that worked at a municipal wastewater treatment facility. They had a saying: "Your waste is our bread and butter." Guess it was a job they could sink their teeth in to. Hey, just going with the flow...

IU soccer live stream stats...now THAT is exciting. Rather watch a replay of the 2nd half of most of IU's football games this season.

I don't know what that means; but, if it's good that's me.* *(Quote of Muhammed Ali as told to Howard Cosell...after Cosell told Ali that he was extremely truculent.)

I love Dad jokes. But, I don't have any kids so that makes me a Faux Pa.

Go to BTN website and pull the game up.

Well, I do have QB Mc running for 100. And IU winning this game. And I will admit knowing little about this game. Do we count deflections?

Indiana 87 L-L Mudbugs 66 Phin scores 10 points and doesn't take the air out of the ball; XJ doesn't commit any fouls; TJD only shoots going right; Race pops 3's; Trey Galloway plays for 1 minute even with his arm in a sling; Lander dunks the ball and leads the team with assists; Geronimo plays for 8 minutes and scores 14; Kopp and Patrick Stewart both hit 8 of 8 free throws...

Kind of Blue - Miles Davis Blood on the Tracks - Bob Dylan Who's Next - The Who Songs in the Key of Life - Stevie Wonder The Doors - The Doors Physical Graffiti - Led Zepplin Chicago IX - Chicago Ultimate Santana - Santana Chronical: Greatest Hits - Creedance Clearwater Revival Passion Grace - Al Di Meola, John McLaughlin, Paco De Lucia And Grand Funk, James Gang, Doobie Brothers, Big Brother and the Holding Company, Joe Cocker, Tom Waits, Leo Koetke, Luther Allison, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Jefferson Airplane, Beatles, Rolling Stones, John Mayall and the Heartbreakers, Traffic, Cream, Hubert Laws, John Coltrain, Marvin Gaye, Herb Alpert, John Phillips Sousa, The Beach Boys, Three Dog Night, Bela Fleck and others too numerous to count or even to recall...like the Lettermen, Chambers Brothers, Buddy Holly, Herman's Hermits, The Byrds, Jethro Tull, King Crimson, Steppenwulf, Pete Seeger, Woody Guthrie, The Temptations...oh crap...forgot Allman Brothers and CSNY..gotta move them up to top 10 somehow...probably hafta move CCR and Stevie Wonder out....jeez.

Mc runs for 100 yards and doesn't throw any picks. Indiana has McFadden not only as DB but as RB. Tom Allen doesn't get excited and takes over as OC. Special Teams are very special. Minny plays down to the competition and loses 3rd in a row. Mini Soda 14 Indiana 24 And there is peace on Earth. Everyone is enlightened. Love is everywhere. Everyone hugs trees! LEO! Far Out!

Read on Fox that Trey's injury is not season ending. Left wrist is broken. https://www.foxsports.com/college-basketball/trey-galloway-player

I lucked into guessing the St. Johns score. Even a blind pig can find a truffle every once in a while. str8H...thanks for doing the yeoman's work on this challenge. Let's see if my random number generator hits again in any of the upcoming games...

A couple of things...but, overall I agree with the above post. Phin should only handle the ball at PG only for very short periods if the defense needs boosting. And only if there are others in the CG/SG/CF/SF lineup that can create. There was a lineup in the second half that seemed to not have the spark. It may have been with Phin, Kopp and Stewart. Not sure though. I was shocked at Xavier not hitting critical free throws at the end of the game. And Phin missed two too. And TJD too. IU had 9 turnovers in the 2nd half and that along with Champagnie getting 22 points in the half almost killed IU. We needed someone to stop him. IU did well in the paint. But, if another team has a great inside defense then what will IU do? And when Posh Alexander got 4 fouls and taken out by St. J's coach...then put back in...why not set him up for the 5th foul and get him out of there? Our bench was really good. IU will need some serious scorers next year to replace those that will move on after this season. Between IU's inside game and the bench and the defense in the first half...that won the game. St. Johns scored 10 more points...47...than IU in the 2nd half. IU's lack of defense in the 2nd half almost lost the game. IU dodged the bullet...SSAH was great...loud as all get out all game....3 - 0! Fun stuff.

Defend the three. Please.

11 minutes to tipoff. As of about 9:01 ET.
