IUBB vs Chattanooga - Saturday, 12.21.24 @ Noon on BTB

[Class of '66 Old Fart 84,744]

After we've kicked ND's butt from South Bend to Choteau, MT Friday night, Saturday morning hangovers and students on vacation will likely keep the crowd at SSAH in the low double digits.  The Choo Choos (8-4) have scored 85+ points in 5 of their 12 games. Not a strong 3-point shooting team at just 31% and allowing their opponents 34%.

Noon tipoff after not playing for a week...I smell a repeat of last year's Morehead State game. 

[Stuhoo 80,710]

Seems like an incredibly dangerous upset-alert game.

A team that shoots a ton of threes, has shot terribly so far this year, and shot tons of threes last year at a much higher clip with many of the same guys.

Ruh-roh.

Can't go Saturday, if anyone wants 2 tix (Section EE Row 8)  plus parking pass (Lot K in front of Kaufman). Let me know.

My cousin and I will be at the game. This will be my first game in years at Assembly Hall. Looking forward to it.
What Avenue is Gate 13 on?

It will be telling. Sleepy noon tip off while students are gone the day after and completely overshadowed by the biggest game in IUFB program history. I expect a thin crowd. And I have no clue what the line is but I’m 100% taking Chattanooga to cover.

I will be at this game and then I have a Christmas party that an employee who works with my dad is having that's why I needed the ugly sweater.

So, you’re saying we could possibly win? You are talking about us upsetting them right?

[Hoosierfanyuh 2,224]

Idk about an upset, we’ve had a week off

We don’t really lose games like this under him, trust me I’m not a fan of his either but just being realistic about this game lol

True. They're usually closer than they should be but IU tends to win them through strength of physical talent.

Recent history with this program is they start really slow on early Sat/Sun games after a night out on the town presumably.  Add in the IU v ND festivities and it could be interesting. :)

Having No enthusiasm sucks. Hope this team can inject some enthusiasm back into the fanbase. But I don’t have much hope either. Seeing a roster with these pieces getting killed over an over is dreadful.

But, as always, I’ll be watching and hoping something clicks.

With the excitement around the football team  I’ve paid zero attention to the basketball team since the Louisville game.  This team will need to do something impressive to get me interested. I’d expect a meh performance but still get the W.

[akumanina 323]

Well I can't say I'm interested in this game. We'll probably win and will see good ol Woody smile in post game presser. Mike Woodson WILL definitively think Mike Woodson is doing a pretty good job. 

[TheWatShot 13,977]

Only thing I'm interested in tomorrow is crowd pics. 

[IUHoosier5 1,604]

Gotta blow them out. Got to.
