IUBB vs Rutger aka/Ruger - Tuesday, 2/7/23 @ 6:30 on BTN

[AKHoosier 7,304]

We gotta beat Rutgers. I'm tired of losing to freakin Rutgers.

Protecting home court is so big in February, given that our remaining road games are very difficult. 

[Hoosierfan1901 6,972]

We open up as 4 point favorites

Let's beat that @$$! Like maybe drop 20 on them with a bench clearing with 3 mins left!

As in all of the last 5 are playing, or all of the last five are swinging? :)

My HS football team had a motto... 

We're either going to win, or we're going to fight!

Nothing pisses them off more than calling them 'Rutger'. Well done!

They don’t deserve an S

Is it too much to ask for TJD to block Mulcahy so bad that his sweatband goes flying in the stands???

Rutgers has the #2 defense on Kenpom and is effectively a pick em against us by that system.

Questionable offense too at #120, but defense wins games, since a shootout would be difficult. Coach Pike will have to re do his game plan due to Mag being out, since he was on TJD the last time around. Going to be a fun one

Dave Revsine, Stephen Dumbo and Andy Katz are on the call for Indiana's game against Rutgers on Tuesday (6:30 pm ET, BTN).

I believe Omoruyi was in foul trouble and fouled out (?). Rutger will come for the basketball but will be more than happy to brawl (Big 1.o basketball style).

We need to take care of the freaking basketball. I believe they had quite a few steals and transition buckets in the first meeting.
High priority on finishing defensive possessions with rebounds and not giving up second chance points. They owned us on the glass last time.

Yes, Cliff fouled out but it was in the final minutes and the game was decided by then

He had 2 guarding TJD before the first half under-16 and barely played the rest of the half.
