What an awesomely fun game to watch.

Was it just me though or did the bench seem a little dour at times, even as we were making play after play?

Walz had to be gettin Marshall’s disparaging candy stripe blow back during the telecast..... that’s why he asked him about it during the game.

We had 21 assists, they had 20 made FGs.

Held them to 33% shooting and 28% from range.

I'll take numbers like that all day long.

I am most grateful for not having heard, "We need to play faster", at any point this year!

[Uspshoosier 44,421]

We're definitely getting better but I'm still pissed at those Ill and Wisky losses.  12-6 and we'd be dancing.

It would of depended on the 12 wins. If u are included Wisky and Illinois as wins those wouldn’t help out. IU still has 0 quadrant 1 wins this year. @nebraska, and Ohio st are only chances for quality wins left. With losses at home to Fort Wayne and Indiana st it would of been tough. Nebraska could go 14-4 in the B1G this year and still not make the tournament

I think Arch has 'em playing pretty good.  It appears that the players are playing with a lot more confidence.  Freddie is doing everything but finishing - he needs to spend some extra time practicing his dunking. lol

but, like everything else he's gotten better at, he'll start finishing those, guaranteed.

From Ken Bikoff:  Hoosiers have allowed 99 points in their last 80 minutes of action. That’s the first time IU has held back-to-back Big Ten opponents under 100 total points since Jan.2 and Jan. 5, 2002, vs. Northwestern and Penn State (98 total points.

We have to take each game one at a time and I want revenge on the Illini next—would not be surprised with another 15-20 point win. But—I have to admit I am circling that last Ohio State game on my calendar. I would love to have them come in ranked number one in the Big on Senior night and see us finally win a close game against a great team. Archie already matched what Crean did last year in the Big and Crean had better talent. We got us a Coach and the future is bright!

Greens improvement these past couple games have been a difference maker. Glad to see him settle down but still be active.

Against Ill. we'll be the more rested team (for a change).  I, too, hope we can make up for blowing the game at C-U.

Well I believe it would be the first time it had ever happened.  I think OSU a couple years ago was the only 11 win B1G team to miss out much less a 12 win one.

B1G is down and the new quadrant system for this year is a little different then in years past. Nebraska could go 14-4 in the B1G with 0 quadrant 1 wins and 1 win against a top 50 rpi team (@ home against Michigan)
They had single games against mich st, Purdue, Ohio st and Michigan and went 1-3

Green wow wow wow. If he keeps this up the sky is the limit for him next year.

[WayneFleekHoosier 47,049]

Marshall was pissing me off
with about 80% of the crap he said!

Indiana was awesome tonight.
Just awesome. It looked like a team that likes one another. Great game!

I about fell out of my chair when the play-by-play guy said, “Donny, you have aspirations to be a head coach, right?” I wouldn’t let him coach my daughters 4th grade team.

He could be the next coach at North Carolina since getting good grades doesn’t mean much to him

He's definitely getting a lot better.   If Archie can get the street ball out of him he'll be great for us.
