Where's A. J. Moye when we need him?   

Still one of the all time best blocks I've seen.

Took my family to that game.  Was in the very last row in the arena right in line with the backboard. Wow!  Not only did Moye jump out of the stadium but the whole crowd did too!   That 2nd half against Duke is a classic.  

[Hornsby 1,925]

to me if we can win the first two games we likely have a good chance at the big dance in dayton. 

Not a chance at minimum they would have to beat illinois. Too many blowout losses, and our best win is a flailing wisconson team.

I was on spring break in a holiday room with a family we know watching the game I was a nervous wreck.

Well they may get another chance

Only way we make the NCAAT is by winning the BTT. Make it to the championship game, maybe close, but I don’t see it.

I was worse.  I had thrown in the towel at the half.  There was absolutely no way IU would come back in the 2nd half.  Duke owned IU. Blown out.  Duke was ranked #1.  IU was 22-11.  

But IU did everything right in the 2nd half.  Well, almost...

"And then it happened: A.J. Moye went skyward and blocked Carlos Boozer at the rim late in the second half. Jarrad Odle, mostly a role player for the Hoosiers, had one of the finest games of his basketball life. Jared Jeffries dominated, as he had done for most of the season, getting the best of Boozer. And finally, Jay Williams, the great Duke guard, missed the free throw on what would have been a game-tying four-point play with 4.2 seconds left, saving the Hoosiers and more specifically, Dane Fife, who came too close while contesting and was called (incorrectly, he says) for the foul."

I was at a BDubs in Lafayette with a group of Purdue fans, one of which was also a Duke fan. Only 1 other IU fan there.

I was pretty drunk by the end of the first half but wasn't having much fun. The second half was a blast.

[IUc2016 7,121]

Since the start of IU's 4 game win streak, IU is 21st on Bart Torvik. 

So, Woody saying we are playing like one of the best team's in the country is KIND OF correct...if you squint really hard.

Will it continue though?

Was Jeff Goodman there gauging the interest of the fans?

Our best shot to make some noise in this tournament as well as improve our ultra slim chances of an at large would be to blow out PSU and Nebraska. Get some guys as much rest as possible.

That team should've won the whole thing funny that Maryland is now part of the conference.

The last conference team to win the title wasn’t even in the conference at the time. 

[Hornsby 1,925]

The last conference team to win the title want even in the conference at the time. 

Michigan state in 2000 and Michigan in 1989 were the last. Likely won't wn I again this year unless purdue plays out of is mind.

It would depend on how the other conference tournaments turn out....fewer surprises the better chance IU would have should they get that far!

We have the perfect draw to make the BTT Finals.

Agree and if these players want to rally around their coach time to step up

What if Galloway doesn't play?
