Class of '66 Old Fart

Per @FDSportsbook, Indiana is currently a 3-point favorite (O/U 132.5) for tonight’s Big Ten matchup vs. No. 15 Wisconsin at Assembly Hall (9p ET, ESPN2). Jason Benetti, Jay Bilas, and Myron Medcalf are on the call.

Little selected for the Finnish team and the upcoming FIBA World Cup Qualifier window. The Finnish team will face Slovenia on the 25th.

Nebraska wins 72-55. An ugly loss. Grace Berger the only bright spot with 20 pts. on 9-15 FG. Rest of the team 14-57. 2-22 on 3s; 7-13 FT; just 4 assists on 23 FG.

Have to re-group for Thursday's game at home vs. Northwestern and then the Iowa, Iowa, Maryland gauntlet to wind up the regular season.

Really missed Mackenzie's presence in that first half when Nebraska totally dominated the boards and got so many offensive rebounds. I like to think we could have slowed the Huskers down early and changed the entire tone of the game.

We are struggling in too many facets tonight. Miserable 3-point shooting, terrible rebounding and very mediocre FT shooting. Nebraska 57-48 with 7 min. left.

52-47 Nebraska leads after 3. Have to dig deep to pull this one out.

Much stronger play by our Hoosiers in the latter part of the quarter and have cut the Nebraska lead down to 50-46 with 2 min. left in the 3rd. Nebraska 6-10 on 3s; IU 1-12.

That kind of head butt will get her a contract in the WWE.

Getting some fouls called on Nebraska but we're only 3-7 from the line. 44-33 with 6:30 left in the 3rd.

Well we dodged a bullet that Gulbe didn't pick up a 3rd foul but it's halftime and Nebraska leads 34-26 after dominating the 2nd Q. We're just not clicking on all cylinders and we're now 0-10 on 3s. Nebraska dominating the boards with 27; 8 off the offensive glass. We only have 15 total boards. Berger 8p 1r shooting 4-8 FG Gulbe 6p 3r Patberg, C-H, M-M each with 4p

A few of Woody's comments on tonight's radio show. On the physicality in the Michigan State game: "It's Big Ten play, man. They allow you to kind of get after it a little bit. Me being a first-year coach in the Big Ten, sometimes I wonder what a foul is, what a travel is." Indiana has a few guys that are "banged up" so Woodson may have to back off a little bit down the stretch in terms of practice. Woodson on social media: "If you decide to read the ****, excuse my language, but that's on you."

Need to get some 3s to start falling, we're 0-9. 28-26 Nebraska with 2:34 left in the half.

We've put Gulbe back in the game. Hope it doesn't backfire and she picks up a third foul.

Tied at 18 after 1Q. We have 4 separate players with 4 pts. each. C-H 3 reb. M-M filling in for Gulbe has 4 pts. and a reb.

Gulbe picks up her 2nd foul with 4:26 left in the 1st Q. Not good.

On the pre-game radio show CTM indicated Mackenzie remained in Bloomington for scheduled rehab work.

The usual starters in Mackenzie's absence..

Feels like we're awfully close to do or die and something positive has to start happening and it needs to start Tuesday night. Badgers (19-5) (10-4) are long overdue for some Hoosier payback. Radio Live Stats
