We just keep doing what we do in The Hall.....beat ranked teams.   Our slogan still fits:  YOU RANK THEM---WE SPANK THEM!

We'll miss you Chuck....we just lost a great IU fan.

Now we have a signature win!   Great to be back in first in the Big Ten!

Our royal knights prevailed in the presence of King Cody who attended the game and provided the inspiration!   The Hall was rocking tonight! The Hawks were caged and cooked!   Buffalo Hawk Wings and Francais Fries all around!

We'll take this one!   Hats off to Troy and Yogi---they helped us bring it home!

Like the Kohl Center---Breslin is NOT KIND.   MSU 77 IU 70

I am back in IU/Francaisland....I had to flee the palace for a while to avoid all the peasants and villagers with pitchforks and nooses.   We must find a way to cage the Hawks or we will have a full scale revolt on our hands.   Once we have them caged---let's have some Buffalo Hawk Wings....with a side of Francais Fries.   We will turn The Hall into a giant Hawk Cage---and turn up the heat---until the wings are fully fried.   Medema---bring us an action shot.   Viva La Francais!  Viva La IU!

Contender or pretender? We are about to find out.   I say The Hall is worth 10 points---the crowd will be wild---so we should win.  Go Hoosiers!

IU 87 IOWA 77

SOS is correct!   The shock collars malfunctioned! The extra voltage actually caused Penn State's normally errant shots to go in!   Instead of the Lions choking--we were the ones that choked!   Memo to the research and development team--OWYH (Off With Your Heads!)   Oui Choked!  Oui Choked!

This one hurts.... Should have--could have---didn't

Our offense deserted us....

Unfortunately--we did not play MSU when they were down. That will be a WAR!

There are contenders and pretenders.   Michigan looks like a pretender.   MSU is perennially a contender by March every year.

This just in...Queen O has delivered an edict to deploy the new "Cat Collar" that our research and development team has been working on for years. It's a new prototype that we had been working on to use on the Kentucky Wildcats but we have been unable to deploy it since they cancelled the series. (Play us you chickens!) We will have the IU/Francaisland special forces sneak in and use tranquilizer darts on them and then secure the collars on the Nittany Lions. Once on--we will have total control over their physical movements including a nice shock collar feature that releases thousands of volts of electricity at just the right moment. I will keep the kingdom updated on its effectiveness and, hopefully, Medema can get a non-classified photo of this new invention!   Viva La Francais!  Viva La IU!  Oui Rock!

Game Day!  Fire Up Hoosiers!   I am hoping for a repeat of the Michigan performance but will take ANY kind of W on the road. A win is a win.   I agree this is a trap game--coming off a nationally televised beatdown performanceof Michigan and thoughts of the looming Iowa game on our minds.  Just get it done Hoosiers!

Great work --Medema.   Loved the last pic of Crown Prince Crean taking down that Penn State Nittany Lion.   I think Crean is more of a La Sampson---as in Sampson and Delilah---not Kelvin Sampson!

Another great day---IU wins and Kentucky loses!   Can't wait to go to work down here in Southern Indiana tomorrow---even though it's raining--it's going to be a bright--sunshiny day!

Come on Bicep---you know we don't utter that name around these parts anymore!

Remember "Bruce Hornsby and The Range"---we used to say "Kyle Hornsby With The Range"!   He could sure shoot the rock!   I wonder if the kid at LSU is related????

Who starts?  OG or Troy? Makes me no difference as long as they both get time-----both have been and will continue to be game changers. (Notre Dame--Troy says hi!)   What a two-headed athletic monster they bring to the IU lineup.    OG certainly softens the blow of the loss of Troy's athleticism next year if Troy jumps to the NBA or overseas.

Gotta say Crean has Belein's number---Crean seems to outcoach him most of the time IMO.   Tonight was one of Crean's best coaching jobs at Indiana---even the hard-to-please Dakich noticed it.   Hope this becomes a pattern!

Love OG. He's gone from diamond in the rough--to pure diamond!

Well done Hoosiers!    Great play and complete games from RoJo (great shooting and D), Yogi (9 assists), and OG (double figures and mean D).   TB, Hartman Z3 and Morgan had some good work as well.   Bad Troy showed up first---but then good Troy arrived for some nice stretches.   Solid return to Ann Arbor for Max. Loved his opening 3 announcing he was back! 7 boards tonight.   Another 50% shooting night---but it was the defense that led to 25 straight first half points without a Michigan basket.  OG was huge in making that happen. He was everywhere and covered Irvin like a blanket.    Solid win---let's go get Penn State!

No GENTLE DENTAL tonight!   Bring out the power drills and the hacksaws!   Woe to the Wolves!  Hail to the IU/Francaisland Hoosiers!
