Say it ain't so Joe that we could conceivably lose 3 straight B1G home games.

I think we'll right the ship today.  Students should be back which will help the environment a little.

Have to pick up our first conference win today to avoid becoming a complete laughingstock.

Maybe a complete laughingstock wouldn't be a bad thing if you know what I mean.. ;)

 

 

Anyways, I believe we'll win. It's UI, It's John Groce. I imagine we'll probably start off hot, slow down a bit and play down to their level. I assume we'll let some kid we've never heard of score at least 20.

Let's go "Hard to watch Hoosiers!"

As bad as this season is looking I still get fired up. Let's go Hoosiers. Time to right the ship and show us what you are made of.

Have you read your own pre and mid game predictions over the past 3 games? It's comically bad.

I think you will find yourself to be half right this time. I think IU wins but not expecting a blowout.

I think Groce is not good at all, but Illinois has been much better lately.

Last game without the students.

Indiana lineup, per Crean on pregame radio: "Morgan, Bryant, Blackmon, Johnson, Newkirk.

[LIHoosier 26,306]

I usually root for the preceding game to end on time, but if Clemson/Irish go to OT, I won't miss the potential 12-0 Illini run to start the game.

Not watching the game today. Replaying arkham asylum for like the 20th time. I just can't watch more horrible basketball. 

Never thought my fandom would come to that but also didn't think IU would settle for a team like this.

Let's go IU! Set the tone early. Run them off the floor. Let this be the turnaround game. Play with that chip on your shoulder. Get pissed. Play mad. No one believes in you, especially IU fans. Screw em. Play for your brothers on the team because that's all you have is each other. Go do it. Do it in spite of the doubters. Shut them up....Hard.

The Georgia/Missouri coaches fight was a hoot!

[Crimson and Cream 5,832]

Let's gooooo Hoosiers!!!!!!!!! I hate Illinois, crush them!

[AKHoosier 6,953]

Dammit I just realized it's on ESPNU and I don't get that.  They also don't have it on WatchESPN either which is asinine.

Gonna have to find a stream somewhere.
