IUWBB @ Northwestern - Tuesday, 02.27.24 @ 7:00 ET on BTN

[Class of '66 Old Fart 84,744]

Don't let the beatdown over Iowa go for naught.  NW (8-19) (3-13) is just 6-8 at home and on a 5-game losing streak but don't overlook them and come out flat.  Be a good game to get the big early lead and let the bench get some quality minutes.

I sure can’t see how Ill beat the crap out of the women by 20 points by looking at them playing Iowa!

[Aaron 4,292]

Need to win by 20 plus to keep NET in top 15 and should be able to do that. Even winning closer than expected game (think Rutgers to open league play) could bring metrics down 3-4 spots and at 13 can't afford that. After Tuesday, winning at all should keep NET steady and a few spots inside of 16 given they will be Quad One.

However, a sub-200 Wildcat squad needs a big win with style points so metrics don't suffer similar to home game against them.

Really a shame that you get more rewarded for the more you beat the crap out of an opponent.

I actually like it but think it needs to be capped at 15-20 points. Winning by 40 should not be a bigger reward than winning by 30.

IU Ladies going to play in a scaled back atmosphere X100 compared to atmosphere they just played in Assembly Hall.  NW 7,000+ gym.  Can’t get to lonely.  Focus required.

A note from Indiana’s game notes today: Mackenzie Holmes needs just two points to pass Steve Alford and become the second place all-time leading scorer for both the Indiana men’s and women’s programs. Alford had 2,348 points and Holmes currently has 2,347.

Men on the laptop. Women on the TV.

Let's roll! 

[LamarCheeks 18,896]

Nice up and under from Mack. 

[LamarCheeks 18,896]

Getting a little 3 happy. 

Would like to see us establish Mack first underneath, then work outside.

Same except I've got men on my iPad with the sound down.

Looks like a big rotation night. 

[FloridaHoosierGirl 4,639]

What's up with all those little girls screaming?  It's annoying even if I was a NW fan.

[Todd41 723]

Wow. Giving up a lot of easy buckets

[Class of '66 Old Fart 84,744]

26-21 Hoosiers after 1.  Defense is optional tonight.  Mack already 8p and 5r

[Class of '66 Old Fart 84,744]

Baseball team could have used Scalia's arm tonight.

Mack now has 25-consecutive double digit scoring games.

[LamarCheeks 18,896]

NW getting too many 2nd chances here. 

[LamarCheeks 18,896]

We're still up 10, but Daley is killing us.
