I think we're one of like 3 Big Ten teams that has never won a game in the Call Center, Nebraska and Rutgers being the other two. 
And those two haven't even been in the conference a long time. I am not sure how old the call center is but it feels we been losing to them while knight was still here lol

HOOSIERS!

 

I'm not expecting anything pretty from tonight. As we all have noted, we simply don't play well there no matter who the coach or how talented we are. 

 

EDIT: I have changed my profile picture to a player we all loved so when I make comments supporting Archie, I don't get too much hate. LOL

Any word on if Armaan will be available today? Would think the Hoosiers will need #2 if they wanna pull the upset today.

I don't expect him back until the Purdue game. That game is Archie's Super Bowl. We have to have everyone healthy for it.

This one is probably not worth watching. Think I'll spend some extra time with the wife and kids tonight.
Yea I am not quite there yet but I used to be excited thinking we can win every game as recently as a couple years ago. That is now gone I feel no chance we win tonight but will watch and hope
