OT but Happy Valentine's Day everybody. Some of them I'll admit are cheesy.

I feel pretty good about our chances if everyone makes curfew!

Anybody want to take bets on that?

Not sure how I googled this game and thought it was tonight all day lol. Should have just looked at the thread title on here. All well off to bed to get ready to stay up late tomorrow night!

All of these games the rest of the season are so freaking massive... Gotta keep adding to the resume. And can we just get freaking healthy for once?

Absolutely...why can't IU go on a run. Let's say they win 5/6 regular season games and win a few Big Ten Tournament games. They could be a 2 seed. At least a 3. Why not us?!

As for health this is what should scare opposing teams. I know it's a debate, but Xavier Johnson makes this team better. Healthy Race/Geronimo does too.

With Michigan and Rutgers both losing last night, we have a great opportunity of separation here.

Any word on X for tonight? I know I had originally seen someone a few weeks ago say they thought he’d be back for NW but IU keeps things so close to the vest with injuries.

Saw this on Facebook today and made me smile.  Now we need to make the nittany lions cry!

 

 

I just realized today that I noted the wrong kitty cat yesterday.  So I hope we make the wildcats cry tonight and save the nittany lions for another time.

Line jumped from IU +1.5 to IU -2.5 pretty quickly- I can't find any injury news that would spur this

Nothing on NU’s side unless Roper is still out, the only potential new injury NW could have is Buie, since in the late 2H he went down hard on a Edey block I think. But he looked fine

I heard Roper will still be out.

Short handed Wildcats tonight then, since they would have 8 available players

Who would have predicted that Pete Nance would have a better chance at making the tourney if he had stayed at NW?  The grass isn't always greener.

I believe he's been out for the last 3 games, they won all 3, he played in a single game after missing the previous 3 in which they went 2-1.

That is also true
