Trish Posted February 16, 2017 Posted February 16, 2017 Well, less than two hours until tip and we still don't have a game thread. I guess as a founding father of the tank, I'll take the honors for tonight. I have a feeling we might blow them out.. thebigweave and Whoozhers 2 Quote
FortWayneHoosier Posted February 16, 2017 Posted February 16, 2017 I don't know how to feel about this one, I'm kind of with you, although my prediction league guess says otherwise. I just can't see us losing this many in a row. ahhhh idk I guess we will see Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners Quote

Hoosier Guy Posted February 16, 2017 Posted February 16, 2017 They hardly ever play well in the barn. This is a big game for Minnesota. They lose this game and that's a huge resume killer. The fact that a loss to IU is a resume killer is ridiculous Hoosierfan2017, GloryDays, Str8Hoosiers and 1 other 4 Quote

If iu wins this game watch how much their rpi will jump( big if). The bubble is historically terrible this year. Just look at the teams projected in last 4 in as of today.

Sent from my iPhone using BtownBannersyour optimism is over the top lol.

coonhounds Posted February 16, 2017 Posted February 16, 2017 Will be interesting to see how the team responds after Creans post game after michigan should find out alot tonight Sent from my SM-G920V using BtownBanners mobile app Quote
IUfan_Charlie Posted February 16, 2017 Posted February 16, 2017 I didn't even know IU played tonight. That should tell you a lot. This season is the first time I've missed games in probably 5-6 years. Quote
Whoozhers Posted February 16, 2017 Posted February 16, 2017 Well, it is the barn. Doesn't mean though that the Hoosiers gotta go up there and stink up the joint anymore than it already does..... Right?Sent from my iPad using BtownBanners mobile app Quote

Until they can't win 4 more in conference there is a chance to play better basketball and make a run. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners Quote
cthomas Posted February 16, 2017 Posted February 16, 2017 We have enough talent on the floor to compete and win against most teams. The question is will they show up and will they compete? I'm mildly interested to see how it plays out tonight. Whoozhers 1 Quote

I've seen worst teams then this get hot and put together a little mini streak I know you watch alot of basketball more than i can but curious what team has been worse then what this hoosier team has been and made the tourney! I am not doubting you but iu is playing really bad ball so bad that going on a winning streak looks out of the question Sent from my SM-G920V using BtownBanners mobile app Quote

Str8Hoosiers Posted February 16, 2017 Posted February 16, 2017 We have 1 game left this season that we get hot and hit at least 14 3s for a victory... Could it be today? Only one though.. Better make it count Quote
