I will say this: Ballo, Malik, and Hatton would be perfectly suited to defend the Maryland two-big focal point. But Malik looked rusty and less than ready last night, so that's not optimum. But we are a far better team when the opponent is not a guard-heavy/bombs away from three style, and Maryland is big man-focused. 

Also, in a 'better coach contest' between Woody and Willard, the correct answer is "none of the above."

They're a lot like us. Talented but under performing.

I've long expected a win here, but this is definitely not a guarantee. 

The boost we typically get from the home crowd could be somewhat negated by our guys feeling increased pressure.

Its 11am on a Sunday I'm guessing the students won't show.

Coach Woody prepares a great game plan.

Indiana's defense is stifling.

Rice gets the ball into play quickly with few turnovers.

Malik has a breakout game and really steps up his defense.

Mgbako scores 18 and passes a lot.  5 assists and some great stops on defense.

Ballo does not dribble into trouble.  Again passes to get assists when doubled.

The Big Ten Referees do a decent job and keep the game going, fairly.

Coach Woody coaches like Izzo.  What a change!

IU wins by double digits on the road.

Even if the first 6 predictions come true (there's not enough weed on the planet), #7 won't come true... the game is at SSAH.

Were you in Guam or the Northern Marianna Islands when you made these predictions?

Well since Maryland hasn't won a road game all season I will say Woody will pull this one out. But as we have seen if it is close with under 5 minutes we'll lose. I expect Ballo to be better than Queen.

On a side note, my son a student has tickets to the game but he and his friends said they would rather watch it at their place and study than go to Assembly Hall on a Sunday to watch this product.

I sincerely doubt it. Jordan Geronimo is an absolutely stinky basketball player and always has been.

Oh yeah. He’s 1 for 2 for the season on 3’s. I’m putting his over/under on made 3’s at 2.5 and he’ll crush it. One of them will probably be banked in. You can feel it coming.

Does Malik play significant minutes? Does he spell Ballo or tag-team with him? The answers to those questions matter.

I would guess he plays at least 12 minutes since he played 11 last night. I think Queen is better than both Ballo and Reneau off the dribble.
