Good 10 minutes. Let's finish with 10 more like that.

Brown on Fairfield is so good and easy to root for. Talented, plays so hard, and great attitude. Good for her.

The #14 ranked team against the #25 team should have been about a 7 point spread.

 IU home gym worth 10+ for IU Ladies.  Love Bargesser fts.  (Patberg coaching)…..maybe, here comes a press.  Call fouls please.

She's a fantastic ball-handler and has quickness and speed few can match. 

In the spring of her high school junior year Lexi led her school to the state girls track title where she won individual titles in the 100, 200 and 400, and was part of a second-place 4x400 relay.  First bball game of her senior season is when she was injured and never played another minute.  After rehabbing all winter, she resumed track limiting herself to the 400 meters.  As a senior she finished 4th in the state championships running a sub 1:00 time.

How does a 4-seed draw a ranked team? It’s that time of year where I start watching IUWBB and I won’t stand for this.

Holy ****. Fairfield is the #25 team nationally and is a 13 seed? That does not compute at all.

AP rankings are steadily becoming worse and less accurate over time, including the men's. It gets chalked up to parity, but it's really because journalists and voters are too lazy to do their homework and just follow the crowd.

Announcer said we were 21-0 when leading at halftime. 

We led O$U after 20 minutes -- but unfortunately lost that one. 

[TTT]

Fairfield would not play 500 ball in any major power 5 conference.  But a good well coached team.

Excellent prep game after being off a couple weeks.

This is how I like to watch Indiana basketball!

[Class of '66 Old Fart]

At the half, FF was shooting 41% FG; since the second half started, that's fallen to 34% for the game.

It's basically to the point that if the women's team is on at the same time as the men, im watching the ladies! It's great watching well played basketball. 

[Class of '66 Old Fart]

What a day for Sara.
