Big opportunity to go from 3-24 in the last 27 games against them to 4-24

I don't know whether to laugh or cry at that.  And just to nitpick, wouldn't that make it 4-25?

No, the 3-24 over the last 27 is 3 wins vs 24 losses and not the 3 wins out of 24 games that you're probably thinking. So a win would make it 4 wins vs 24 losses.

Well here we go again lol. Let’s take care of business at home and go from there. We’re all frustrated but let’s hope the team makes us all look dumb! Go Hoosiers baby

I am all for winning Saturday and getting this thing back on track but they would probably have to win every game the rest of the big 10 to make us really look dumb. This team was supposed to contend for the big 10 not finish in last place

Math checks out. A win would make it go from 3 to 4.

It's a local Wisconsin reporter in an article that centers on detailing the health of Tyler Wahl.

Seems like pretty appropriate stuff to me.

Appropriate to talk about his health, absolutely, but to act like their depth will be tested more than IU's...not so much.  I think you could leave the part out about depth being tested whenever you are playing against a team missing two starters to injury.

It would be the equivalent of the Bloomington Herald running an article about Race and X and not contrasting it with Wahl's impact. Small paper reporter focused on his team's guys.

Wow. Another game thread already? I’m still recovering from the PSU debacle thread.

Sure would be nice to put that in the rear view mirror and get a W against Bucky.

Come on HOOSIERS let’s GOOOOOOOOO!!

Update on Race.  Return early to mid-February, maybe.

What are the rules about playing with a boot or crutches? I think booted XJ or crutched Race could defend at the same level as some of our current players and I've seen them toss in some long distance buckets during playaround.

Thoughts?

I think the game starts at 1pm not noon. Just an FYI whichever mod started this thread (Stu)

Starts at noon in God's time zone.

I don't know if I'm going to watch it. Will look at my phone for an update probably but I don't know if I want to go through the stress of my school not even trying.

That wasn't nice. I think after thirty years of watching regardless of the outcome, I find myself wanting to work on other stuff because I just don't wan't to be bummed. It's a real problem that it's coming to this.

I'm just kidding. I find myself doing other things in the second half sometimes now and never have in my last 40 years

FAU/North Texas in person just down the road with IUBB on the recording, or IUBB live.

What say you?

A game in person is always better than a game on TV

Live, always. Learned that lesson once again on Wednesday when I skipped a good ISU game.

Holy crap, just looked at the early line for tomorrow and IU is 4.5 pt favorite!?! 
 

somebody in vegas is hitting the sauce pretty heavy. Any degenerate gamblers out there might want to jump on that cause i dont see it staying that way for long.
