That foul saved us from a 3. May work out fingers crossed

That's a killer foul because now they can run the clock down.....went from each team getting a possession to basiclaly just MD.

Personally, I just foul their worst free throw shooter and steal a possesion

Big Ten refs never call walks.  Period.

[LIHoosier]

6 seconds left and running, everyone runs away from the ball to throw it in

[Brass Cannon]

How do you not get a shot off. My god how are we consistently unprepared for basic game situations

[LamarCheeks]

OK, my Caption Obvious moment of the day: Archie needs to get a couple bigs who can shoot. 

How many times have Joey or TJD flashed to the top of the key and when they get the ball, nobody is within a half-dozen feet of them? It's such an advantage to have a guy like Jalen Smith. 

[pappy1865]

I'll take it. For now. Step-up the D and keep hitting. Also need to get to the line. Yes, they struggle but only 5 1st half attempts? And, TJD sat quite a while so hopefully he has a strong 2nd half.

Ugh on the D there on that last drive.
But to survive that 3 pt barrage and only down single digits. That’s a plus.

If Brunk and Smith had just hit their bunnies, its probably a 1 point game.

[Hoosier Guy]

All in all, I’ll take being down by just nine points

[Josh]

After Maryland made that last shot, we wasted 3 of the last 7 seconds because there was no hustle to get the ball in.  Maybe they should have worked on that in practices?

[Whoozhers]

After that 3 point assault.... no Trayce for half the first half .....being down single digits.... not bad [emoji106]
GO HOOSIERS!

Archie waited way too long to adjust the D and it cost IU maybe 7 or 8 wide-open 3s. This game would be IU on top without that.

Al is not equipped to handle a situation like that unfortunately. Not his skill set

I mean, come on. Maryland is gonna hit 9 3’s in the first half on the road? What are the odds. This is just silly. 

Wide-open 3s percentage is pretty high for most teams.

Then put rob back in for the final possession. 

[JaybobHoosier]

Not much you can do when a team is unconscious from deep, geez. I know we left them open some but there’s not much you can do about this. IU has had a good overall performance. Only thing that stinks is we can’t buy a bucket in close. Joey can’t hit and neither can Justin around the basket. Would be a tied game or closer making those short ones

Yes, this game is still winnable.  We just need to tighten up the defense and make our bunnies
