I am optimistic as well. BUT I just go back to the fact that IU has not had a 3 game winning streak in the Big Ten in three years. That's absurd, but just where IU is. So, I can't predict any win streaks until IU proves it.

I am way more optimistic after last night though! 

So far this season our guys have ended the winless road streak, and the streak of losses to PU.

Next streak up

Let's start by taking care of business against meatchicken on Sunday. Please, no letdown in the energy department for this game. Consistent energy, effort, and smart play will take care of the wins and build for the rest of the season. This team can compete with any in the conference but can also lose to any in the conference. We've overcome some demons the last few games but need to continue to build. I full 40, balanced attack on Sunday would be the next stepping stone.

I guess we decided neither 20 would be worthwhile today. Does this mean we get two good halves against psu?!

11-9 to 13-7 is where this team is trending to finish Big 10 play.  I think all of us would take that if asked at the beginning of the year. 

11-9 would be 4-5 for the rest of the B1G season. 

So we'd have to do crappy from here on out for us to still have a successful season.

Yeah -- I'd say that's a good place to be in.

It’s definitely an improvement, lol!

IU could technically schedule a game for that Saturday now if they were looking to do so.   If it was me I would definitely look into it 

Probably not going to find a team for the Q1 or Q2 range which could help the non con SOS.  Saturday’s are usually a loaded day for leagues to schedule.    If they were just wanting a win to pad the win total they might be able to find a low major team

We'll have almost a week between games again. Hopefully, we're not rusty again. We should schedule something on the road to try to get to that 4 win mark. Three of our remaining road games (MSU, O$U, and purdoodoo) aren't real winning friendly games while Minny could be fighting to stay in the group of 20+ teams wanting to stay in connection to be considered a bubble team, maybe.

Schools I could find without a game scheduled for Feb 18th, 19th, or 20th with (NET Rank)

Montana (238), NC State (132), N Arizona (317), Portland St (294), Tulane (110), UC San Diego (278)

I'm really curious if Tulane would be up for it.

You usually would like a road win against the team in the field as well.  Also IU will have the B1G tournament to get that 4th win.   Looking closer at the schedule going to be tougher to schedule a game
