No, we have a better resume than most bubble teams.  We would have to lose out imo to miss the tourney.

No it doesn't.  The bubble is so weak this year.  If we lose to Ohio State, we could be in trouble. 

For sure. Oregon has a good squad. Impressed with #5, strong and athletic, bad match up for us. Gotta win 3 in a row I think

OSU is a must. That might be all we need. Maybe one in the B1G tourney. If we lose vs OSU we need 2 p, maybe 3 in tournament.

IU is definitely not out of the tourney after this loss.

We beat Ohio State, we are in for sure….

No. Win Sat and 1 more win in BTT and they are likely in. Also depends on other bubble teams and bid stealers.

Depends on bid stealers, but I think if we beat OSU we are in regardless of the Big Ten Tourney.

Conference tourneys help very little btw, field is usually pretty much already made by the time of the big ten tourney champ

[Uspshoosier 53,317]

A&M up 12 at home vs Auburn with 1:44 to go.  Will be first win vs #1 

[Hoosierfan1901 8,159]

Kill shot at the end, unfortunately, sums it up. Such a winnable game

Sounds like something you better have checked out by a doctor, partner.

I think they still need another quad 1 win and maintain not having any Q2 or below losses which likely would require beating OSU, taking care of business in the first round of the BTT, and then winning another. The noncon schedule and performance was just so poor. Also worry about bid stealers if the resume isn’t great going into the conference tournament

Super duper lame. Quite possibly the lamest.

This is probably the 6th or 7th game IU has had trouble closing out this season. A lot of scenarios to where we wouldn’t have to worry about being on the bubble.

Find us a coach that can win these type of games 

find us a coach that can develop guards

find us a coach that can develop shooters

find us a coach that teaches hustle

find us a coach that preaches toughness

find us a coach that preaches winning 

Find us a coach that knows X’s and O’s 
feel free to add on to this list

I think this as well. Projected 11 seed before Oregon loss. Just take care of business at home and don’t get blown out first game of BTT. 

[Uspshoosier 53,317]

Add another year to IU finishing a conference season without a winning conference record.  Best IU can do is finish .500.

Yep, by all logic they SHOULD matter a lot — neutral games against teams from your own conference! And a better process would weigh them appropriately. But the committee based process…doesn’t.
