I wasn’t gonna be surprised if we lost this game, but NOT by doing it the way we have looked so far..

Get rid of the ball Evan!

Justin trying to do his Zion impression and it’s just not gonna happen

...all we need are 5 straight 3 pointers and we’re back in this thing!

Word has gone around that Trayce may commit at his high school game this Friday. Their opponent: Aarman Franklin & Co.

My off the top of my head keys for IU: 1. Juwan and Romeo take it to their next level on a big time stage. 2. Rob plays cool and collected. 3. McRoberts and Green are back 4. Justin Smith found his big boy pants under his bed.

Definitely. He sets the pitbull effort mindset for the team. When he's out there giving it his all, the rest follow.

Juwan 5-7 from deep is impressive. We will need that next Tuesday.

UC Davis 38 points in first half, only 19 so far in second half with 4 minutes left. So we definitely have that going for us.

It's obvious what's going on here fellas....we're making Duke think this is all we've got going for us, and then when they least expect it, we POUNCE!

Justin misses a lot of bunnies. With all the hype he got in the off-season I was thinking he’d be breaking rims. Hope he can get it turned around. Rooting for him for sure.

This team needs Zach’s bulldog fight/effort bad.

I realize we are down a handful of players, but the players we still DO have playing should have no excuse to play like that. I know we are up by 17, but we didn’t look very intimidating. Also, I’d like to see Romeo have the last shot for once and see what happens.

Arkansas coach stated how many deflections they had in the game in his presser. Crean is gonna love the SEC...all kidding aside, I wish Romeo would have taken more chances to take over the game. I can’t stand it when we lose but I’m glad to get it over with now and learn why we did.

It’s “get Romeo the ball” time.

Archie def good enough to make the right adjustments, but at the same time, Arkansas gonna play with fire since they are ahead at half

Smith plays way too quiet for how explosive he can be. Sometimes it looks like he plays in slow motion which makes it look like the hustle isn’t there. Frustrating because he can be soooo good.

As valuable as Davis can be with some things, I still think he can be way too clumsy and sloppy with the ball.

You would think his decision would be very soon at this point. Even if he planned on going to IU and wanted to wait to make his announcement, he’d still possibly take thr trip to MSU beforehand.

Right, I agree how the coach presented himself and the way he answered the questions was nicely done and respectful. Like you said, he appreciates the opportunity and spoke highly of our school/players. Just some of the stuff the players were saying weren’t in that same context...like I said though, it was probably the bias “how dare you not talk us up and act like we’re just another home game, we’re IU!” fan in me. Plus when he said he had never heard of Romeo Langford before today...me thinking that was ridiculous was probably me being bias.

Yes! I saw that interview on YouTube. Dude on the left with what he was saying and how he was saying it makes me want to beat them by 40..but that could just be the biased IU fan in me. I can see wanting to show your confidence and all, but still..

Archie said he could see all 4 guys who are out be gone for the rest of November

Yeah I think you may be right. I remember him being at the line when they were chanting so it was prob directed towards him.

I know the crowd was chanting overrated earlier. I actually don’t think Marquette is overrated at all....IU is seriously just better and should be ranked as such.

I find that half especially impressive knowing we’ve got 4 really good players in sweatpants tonight.
