Class of '66 Old Fart

IUWBB vs Stanford in the Bahamas - 11/25/21 @ 1:30

Recommended Posts

Down 2 with 31 seconds to go. Gulbe with a big three. Gonna take some missed free throws by Stanford. No matter what, we played them tough given the size advantage. Moren will be better prepared to negate the height on defense to open the game come tourney time. This team is legit top five team.

Doesn’t look good. Down 8 with two mins to play. Size killed us. Holmes hardly a factor because they’re just too tall. If we want to beat this kind of a team in the tourney we’re gonna have to be better from deep. 

There are definitely still programs we are catching up to. Stanford has been a great program and the defending champs. If we can truly just compete with those top programs, then eventually we gotta make it over that hump I would think.

I am not even mad about that loss. We went toe-to-toe with a legit top 5 team proving are a true top 5-10 team as well.

Any win against Stanford, NC State or Maryland this yr is a bonus, but a top 2 Big Ten finish and a 23-6 record is very much in reach and after today I am more confident we can do that.

Most teams don’t have Stanford’s length inside to make our inside game miserable but we hung in there. We actually played far better than the last win against Quinnipiac, but not enough in a game that could go either way.

Miami got beat big by Washington St today who is not the greatest team in their own right.

If IU is actually the top 5-10 team they look so far, this is a game you win comfortably against the Hurricanes Saturday.
