Very selfish shot there by Mitchell.

Agreed

Nothing really jumps off the screen when watching Myles Rice. Darn

[LamarCheeks]

Gotta give Minny a little bit of credit. 

They're getting smoked, but are still playing hard. 

Something we did not do against Uof6 or 'Zaga. 

[Hoosierfan1901]

optional kill shot I see

Giving up too many layups/dunks this half.

He's one step from getting blow byes that are ending up getting blocked.  Needs to improve there.

I feel like he would be much better with shooters and one big. It's crowded down there. 

[RaceToTheTop]

Good win.  Effort there, offense there.  Second half defense not real good, but I'll take the win.

Pretty much what Woody just said!

[RoadRage]

Kind of fizzled down the stretch, but any win is a good win! Nebraska will be a much better team!

[LamarCheeks]

I had us winning 81-69, which was three points off. 

I was impressed with myself until I went to the prediction thread and saw that @cthomas had the final exactly right.

Cookie is impressed ...

[HoosierHoopster]

Damn, missed Minny’s score by a basket. 
Ratfarts!

[Stuhoo]

Less satisfying second half but overall a pretty satisfying game.

Some flawed performances but those get overshadowed when the team fights hard for rebounds and loose balls, and keeps the ball moving on offense.

[reconmkd]

Lmao, Ballo with a little Mutumbo finger wag on the last block! I like it!

cthomas got very lucky.

Minnesota is a very bad team. I’m glad we beat them. I’m still concerned about our season. Let’s go Hoosiers carry on.

This game was quite literally the easiest B1G game on the schedule. I guess we took care of business with a 15 point win and beat the spread.

I root for good basketball. I want Indiana and Woodson to be amazing. We were a B+ on offense tonight. Maybe an A-. We were a C- on defense. We are 11th or 12th in the B1G in the NET. This won’t help much. Just gotta stack wins and try to get better. Winnable game on Friday, we need to get that one.

Considering that IU plays Nebraska on the thirteenth and then only plays two what should be easy non-conference games prior to January 2nd, this is one that probably will end up coloring the IU fanbase's mood for the next three weeks.
