IUBB vs UCLA - Friday, 02.14.25 @ 8:00 on Fox TV

[Class of '66 Old Fart]

The heady smell of victory still wafts through the air.  Will it linger through Friday night or will it be replaced by the smell of rotten eggs?  With our team, who knows?  The Bruins (18-7) (9-5) are 3-4 in road games and will be coming off an 83-78 loss to Illinois just last night.  They average 75.6 ppg with a +11 scoring margin and shoot 35% on 3s.  Not an overly strong rebounding team averaging 32.1/gm. vs. 31.6 for their opponents.  They do force turnovers and average 8.6 steals/gm.  3 players average in double figures led by Tyler Bilodeau at 13.6 ppg.  He's also a 46% 3-point shooter but only attempts 3/gm.  Kobe Clark and Skyy Clark both average 37% on 3s.  Johnson is their rebound leader with 5.8/gm.  This is definitely a winnable game if the right IU team shows up. Or, it could be an audition opportunity for Mick Cronin.

There's no way Bobby Boiler on Valentine's Day would stay away from his true love; trolling the IU fan base.

Whoever 'designs' these for Adidas is stealing money, and they're all red btw unlike the jerseys on the Adidas site.

They look like stuff they'd wear for practice.  They are just plain ugly.

I actually like listening to Hummel, but this was funny.

Let’s smackdown Mick the Dick Cronin and welcome him to the Midwest again for an L tomorrow with a raucous Assembly Hall.

Destroy the Bruins!

Adidas annoying IU fans with ugly alternate jerseys is becoming an annual tradition.  I don't know why they do this lol.
