Class of '66 Old Fart Posted February 4 Posted February 4 Can't dwell on what might have been. Winnable game on Saturday and we can't let it slip through our fingers. Badgers (16-6) (8-3) have played 14 of their 22 games on their own court. They average 83 ppg with a +8 margin shooting 45% on FG and 35% on 3s. We average 81 ppg and 47% and 35% in comparison. Defensively the Badgers hold opponents to 44% and 33% shooting. Our defense holds opponents to 41% and 31%. Badgers average 37 rpg with a +3 margin; we average 35 rpg. Wisky average 16 assists/gm. vs just 10 turnovers. 3 players average double figures led by Nick Boyd at 20.0 ppg.; John Blackwell 18.8 and Nolan Winter 13.8. On any significant volume Braeden Carrington at 42% and Blackwell at 38% are their best 3-point shooters. Winter is their best rebounder at 8.7/gm. Nick Boyd leads the team in assists and has a 2.0 assist/turnover ratio. Radio Live Stats Quote
str8baller Posted February 4 Posted February 4 This ain’t your older cousins Wisconsin Badgers. They’re currently 70th in tempo. This should be a good matchup for us. Quote
Dave from Dayton Posted February 5 Posted February 5 Having graduated with my wife from IU Business School... and then graduating from UW-Madison in Civil and Environmental Engineering... my alma mater will win.

HoosierHoopster Posted February 6 Posted February 6 Hate Wisconsin with a capital H. Started with the Grinch. Before him we beat Wiscy with ease over decades. Since him and IU's fumbling through coaches it's been a regular struggle with the cheese heads, and their fans, what a bunch of clowns. Get this W, and start us back on the Wiscy beatdown path.

Home Jersey Posted February 6 Posted February 6 I'd like to see Dorn put it on the floor and get to the cup or back cut toward the basket some more in this game. MonteMarcaccini, Whoozhers, J34 and 1 other 4 Quote

Shooter Posted February 7 Posted February 7 Massive game today... not necessarily a "must-win", but close. Hopefully we have someone ready to pull the fire alarm again if things are looking bad in the second half. Home Jersey, Josh and Jeff Flabjohns 2 1 Quote
Demo Posted February 7 Posted February 7 Austin Rapp out for Wisky. That’s really significant. 20 min rotational big. Class of '66 Old Fart, Shooter, Home Jersey and 2 others 5 Quote
Pagoda Posted February 7 Posted February 7 Despite him being out the line has moved from -4.5 to -3.5. I can help my IUBB PTSD — this feels like a classic IUBB letdown situation. Break the trend fellas! Looking at ticket demand we should have a good crowd today. Just go win by 10! BGleas, Dave from Dayton and Stuhoo 3 Quote

To quote Cig when asked about IU losing so often to Penn St; “They haven’t played THIS team.” Of course, Cig had a generationally incredible team. southsidehoosier 1 Quote
