WayneFleekHoosier Posted May 7, 2019 Posted May 7, 2019 We taking some L’s? Louisville probably gets us on neutral court. UConn? I believe they are getting some guys finally. Still down. Texas Tech will be better than they are on paper again. Interesting. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners Quote
HoosierRobbie Posted May 7, 2019 Posted May 7, 2019 I’d rather not play Louisville, that’s probably a loss. Would probably prefer to play tech.Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners HoosierTrav and JaybobHoosier 2 Quote

I want this to become a heated rivalry.... if we aren't going to pick up UK on our schedule anytime soon we need some bigger name school to be our non-conference Rival and they fit the bill. To be the best you gotta beat the best... They have a Top recruiting class coming in, young coach, this is a rivalry that could bloom and be ongoing... They may have the advantage on a neutral court this season but long term.... Class of '66 Old Fart and Uspshoosier 2 Quote

HoosierDYT Posted May 16, 2019 Posted May 16, 2019 IU vs UCONN in the Jimmy V Classic UofL vs Texas TechI for one actually like this. I think Louisville would have been an L and this gives us a chance to add a W Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app HoosierRobbie 1 Quote
LIHoosier Posted May 16, 2019 Posted May 16, 2019 I would've preferred playing Texas Tech to get an idea of where we stack up and the Big 12 being a better conference as a whole than the American. Playing Uof6 for the 4th straight year and 5th time in 7 years would've been too much. Stuhoo and WayneFleekHoosier 2 Quote
WayneFleekHoosier Posted May 16, 2019 Posted May 16, 2019 Should be a nice matchup. Winnable but ye of little faith. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners Quote
HoosierRobbie Posted May 17, 2019 Posted May 17, 2019 Wouldn’t be surprised to see Louisville come to Bloomington for the big/acc challenge, pretty sure they are due a road game and we are due a home game.Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners HoosierDYT and Str8Hoosiers 2 Quote
Honkyman Posted May 17, 2019 Posted May 17, 2019 Our best record against any team in the ACC Challenge is against North Carolina, 2-1. Our worst record is against Duke, 0-5. At home we are 5-4 (including the one game we played in Indianapolis which we won). We are 2-7 on the road. We haven't played Louisville in the ACC Challenge so maybe that's who they will match us up with. We haven't played Virginia Tech or Clemson either. So who knows? Maybe it will be Duke again because someone who is scheduling these game wants to give us another shot--or wants to give Duke another win. Quote

Beat them in North Carolina in 2001 as well as 2012 and 2016. Lost in 2004. Quote
Honkyman Posted May 17, 2019 Posted May 17, 2019 Even better record than I thought against North Carolina. Maybe we should play them again. Quote
Walking Boot of Doom Posted May 17, 2019 Posted May 17, 2019 I doubt they’ll schedule IU and Louisville given the two could end up playing in the Jimmy V Classic if both win or both lose their first game.I think this is the year we get a Virginia Tech or some other second tier ACC school.
