BTT Game Thread: Indiana vs. Iowa 3/12 - 1 pm on CBS

[Demo 24,105]

Bates is freaking fearless.

Let's stick with bates.  Parker or Kopp can watch

[Double Down 324]

Excellent finish to that half. Getting the inside game working set up that wide open Bates shot. Way to finish that half!

[Hoosier Guy 8,333]

HUGE shot by Tamar. Way different feel to be up 6 points than 3 points

With all the threes Iowa shoots....they can beat anybody and also lose to anybody if they are cold!

Frustrating or exciting. There’s no in between for an Iowa team 

[JerryYeagley23 5,153]

Big confidence booster for Tamar there. Without JG, his minutes are big. 

[RoadRage 3,013]

Woody  very relaxed and confident....what a turn around for this team. Winning that Michigan game was huge!

Agreed. He’s lanky and defends fairly well too.

Even though Iowa got whistled for more fouls than IU it should have been double that. All in all, great first half. Maintain and close it out.

Serious question: have we ever led at halftime of a Big Ten semifinal? 

[pumpfake 4,525]

Can't gripe about being up at the half, with XJ out for the last 7+ minutes.  

I really liked Bates' defense - he was pressuring his guy beyond the arc.  Can't give Iowa wide-open looks from out there.

He's going to turn into our alpha in another year or two

[JerryYeagley23 5,153]

My daily Kopp/Stewart shooting update: combined 0-9 FG. 
 

Must be their defense earning them minutes…

[HoosierHoopster 8,583]

Really like our 1st half defensive effort. Bring that same defensive energy and extending out and we’re in this to the end.

Bates didnt just hit a 3, his D was strong, hope he gets good minutes this half

Rob is playing great 

[kreigh8 2,111]

Kopp and Parker - 0-9 from the field. 0-5 from 3. We can get the same from Galloway and Bates and Galloway provides more ball handling

[Five Prime 1,154]

This team is oozing confidence right now.

At least 50% of em....

[DChoosier 9,854]

Regardless of the outcome today I’m going to enjoy selection Sunday more than I thought I would prior to the BTT

IU outscored Iowa 16-12 the last 7:08 without Xavier. I’ll take that for sure
