  2. Sad news about a former rival from up north. Was a good point guard and good defender. Played on three B1G title teams. Just saw that he passed. Doesn't seem to be any indication of how. He was 51. Way too young. RIP.
  3. Michigan-PSU tonight is almost as bad as Illinois-NW last night. No real surprise, however.
  4. Kinda funny. At least he seems to be pretty good sport about it ...
  5. This was pretty good ...
  6. Up by 40 now.
  7. Caffey was huge in this game -- 16 points, a career high. Ciezki was her usual self -- 31. Much, much stronger in the second half -- just 1 turnover after 11 in the first 20 minutes. Nice road win.
  8. Ciezki gets fouled. She makes 1 of 2, but Bucky misses as time runs out. Hoosiers win. Wisconsin is pretty bad, but a win is a win is a win. Especially on the road. And especially for this group. That's 2 in a row and 12 straight over Bucky. Way to find a way to win!
  9. Bucky makes 1 of 2. We're up 76-74 with 7 seconds to go. It'll be a matter of getting the ball inbound, then making FTs. These final 28 seconds are taking about 10 minutes!
  10. Bucky at the line. We're up 76-73 with 7 seconds to go.
  11. Two big FTs from Beau. 76-73 with 13 seconds to go. Bucky ball. We have fouls to give.
  12. Big step-thru bucket from Shay. But Bucky answers 74-73 IU with 17 seconds to go. We have possession. Entertaining game.
  13. IU up 72-71 with 38 seconds to go. Hold on!
  14. Ciezki with HUGE back-to-back 3s. With an and-1 on the second -- for a four-point play.
  15. And there goes our lead. 63-61 Bucky with 3:27 to go. Beau missed a couple WIDE-OPEN 3s. How will we respond???
  16. These B1G-plus Network shifting camera angles are making me dizzy. Just keep the shot from center court. Don't need to show the person who scored running up the court. That serves no purpose.
  17. Well -- not the usual third-quarter swoon. But ... We had a 12-point lead, then got sloppy. Ciezki tries about a 40-foot one-handed pass that got picked off. That's followed by a Bucky 3. And Bucky has a defensive breakdown, giving Beau a wide-open layup as the quarter clock winds down and ... she misses it. Still we're winning, and that's like better than losing.
  18. Caffey picks up her fourth foul. No bueno. She's been playing well tonight.
  19. Ciezki living off drives and midrange tonight. 14 points so far -- not a single 3-pointer.
  20. We're 2 for 10 from distance -- and neither Makalusky, Beau nor Ciezki has hit one. Both came from Caffey.
  21. Down by 1 after 10 minutes. Up by 1 after 20. Turnovers are killing us. Just being really sloppy and forcing things -- plus a phantom carrying call on Beau. Here comes our Achilles' heel -- the third quarter.
  22. Two consecutive possessions without a shot. Horrible pass by Ciezki. Beau can't inbounds from the baseline -- 5-second call. Bad, bad turnovers.
  23. And just as I say that, Kiaku dribbles along the baseline -- and steps out of bounds. Unforced error.
