Defense jumped from 23 to 11 on KenPom after that performance.

Highest we’ve been since at least Samson 

[HoosierAloha 30,068]

We have some players that stepped up when TJD had an off game.

We need to get the TOs under control quickly. Pushing tempo will lead to TOs but 32,000 is a bit much. Rebounding is another pattern on the young season to watch.

Glad to see them hitting shots! That’ll do so much for Trayce in the paint and Race slashing.

Arizona should be in the top 25 win or lose tonight against Michigan in my opinion.   They are definitely top 25 good.   Buckeyes lost to X on the road so that might drop them out 

The announcer said that Arizona is the best unranked team in the country

I think Archie Cracked top 10 before wheels fell off his second year

I still don’t see TJD for sure going pro after this year btw.  He’s not going to be a first round pick.  Our donors aren’t bidding against NBA minimum they are bidding against international controls which frankly if we can’t top we are never going to win another NC 

If this is the case, we may see some Woodson'ing happen with three schollys coming in.

I know we gave up a lot of offensive rebounds but we still out rebounded them

Went back and watched the Lander to Leal pass. Just an awesome pass and awesome hustle from Leal. Lander passes the ball before he reaches half court, and Leal is three feet past half court. He catches it in stride and hits the layup without taking a dribble. 

 

 

Man i’ve been saying this since the beginning of last season. He wasn’t physically ready for dI ball and got thrown to the crap of Cam’s offense, but the kid was a top ranked pg for good reason

My take on tonight's big matchup: 

Wisconsin is for real. The Badgers' setters and hitters are top notch. And their passing is smooooth.

But I think they'll met up with the Gophers again in the NCAAs -- and fall in four sets.

Would surprise me given well, everything but haven’t checked

Did geek a bit when I saw Wisconsin pancake and later got the point.

Woody in the postgame, when asked about all of the turnovers:

”We’re gonna be doing a lotta running in practice tomorrow.”

Love it. Run run run. Louisiana poised zero threat today. 27 turnovers call for cardio until at least 3 guys lose their lunch.

Truly hope Durr can get more minutes in the next couple of games. I can see what he’s capable of, he just needs to dial it in. 

[mamasa 15,279]

Just looked at stats- Louisiana played 15 players! At one point, there was a Calipari platoon style 5 player substitution. 

[WayneFleekHoosier 48,316]

Fun game. Lots of positives. Love the depth. We aren’t elite top 10 good but we are top 25 good. Shooting felt good today. We aren’t a great rebounding team despite our hustle. Give up way too many OR. Granted St. John’s and LA are tall and long but it’s going to cost us. Almost did vs ST J. Got sloppy at times. Whatever, we were trouncing them.

I’m enjoying IUBB again. Thank goodness.

Great minutes from Lander for the most part.

That was funny because Chuck announced Louisiana with…. Multiple substitutions!

I noticed that! The guy behind me said it was a line change like hockey.

Wolverines fall to Arizona...80-62.  Guessing that ranking is about to change for both schools.

Couldn't agree more. In fact, I posted right after the game ended that Fife needs to run a block out drill for these guys. And beat it into their heads. 20 offensive rebounds for the opponent is more than embarrasing, even with bad bounces from bricks being shot. But if LL got 10 more baskets from those 20 offensive rebounds, it's a different game.

Woody will get the TO's resolved. Played a lot of 2nd unit guys a lot of minutes, without starters in there to calm them down.
