They rarely call it but we could have been called for a foul on Minnys last second half court heave.

Yep. Kind of dumb to crowd the shooter like that. Pretty much sums up our half though—poorly executed but luckily we survived.

I guess we gotta take the 3 point lead.

We weren’t smart. We didn’t hit 3s outside of Kopp. Just have to stay focused on D and pick up the hustle.

Malik was the best player in the first half.

Like Bill Murray in Caddy Shack, we seem to have our hands full of gophers!

it’s like we don’t know what those  critters are going to do next!

And I'll bet we start Race in the second half.  Reneau needs to be out there right now.

[HoosierAloha 30,102]

Hopefully we come out a little more focused in the second half with a little more e and e.

6 TOs, 10 fouls, 50% at the line, not going up and finishing at the rim, and only +3 on the boards against a little Minny team.

[RaceToTheTop 31,605]

It was a really poor half by JHS.  Forced some shots.  He should be able to get to the hoop, just needs to be patient.

[DChoosier 10,080]

It’s only one half but would be nice for TB, JG, TG be a little more consistent game to game.

[colonel06 1,948]

The short-handed gophers clearly trying to win!

[RaceToTheTop 31,605]

Only Gopher baskets in the last six minutes were on two offensive rebounds we couldn't corral.

[RaceToTheTop 31,605]

Do have a feeling that if Woodson had been on the sidelines he would have been working the officials pretty hard that half.

[Whoozhers 3,781]

Hope they left the pistol in the locker room. Shooting ourselves in the foot es no bueno.

[DChoosier 10,080]

Four positives:

We are ahead

Malik continued his improved play

Kopp hit three 3’s

Didn’t see Danny DeVito wearing googles saying he likes his sandwiches wet

The Mo is changing.  IU is focused in the 2nd half.

Minny gets tired.  

IU runs Minny out of the barn.

[RaceToTheTop 31,605]

Even with Galloway and Bates not playing well in the first half, don't think you can play Gunn in the second half.

Or they start off with a TO.

Is Trey scared or what? He passed up an open 12-footer to make a horses$hit pass. 

[DChoosier 10,080]

TJD with 11 points and 11 boards with 18:50 to go….LOL

[HoosierAloha 30,102]

Amazing Big 1.o teams are attacking Kopp.

Started the game defending Battle and they went at him. Started 2nd half against their PG and they attacked him.

[TheWatShot 15,687]

Their Thompson is kicking our tails on the boards.
