Last time IU got the benefit of the doubt late calls  at home?    Sure there are examples but it’s been a while since it’s been the house of calls.  Coming against Wisky I’m here for all of them this time around 

Wisconsin owes us a few hundred calls over the last 20 years.

Yeah zero sympathy. Kohl Center is worse than purgatory.

Now if we could only just win at Wisconsin which we won't have an opportunity to do.

Actually miraculous victory. Gift wrapped by the refs. Coach better learn from this. The ghost of RMK saved us today.

Yea.  We live to fight another day, which is good.  And double good we beat Wiscy, we owe them one and it's still not close to even.

I don't feel much better about this team, but is what it is.

On the sunshine pump side, is D-Rock an OT specialist?  He had a good OT record prior to IU.

Also, a nice crowd today.  Our "toxic" fans were very good.

 

[LamarCheeks]

Made one bucket in the final 10:32. 

And we still won. 

Wow.

Do not put Dorn in.  Play some defense.  Get a new head coach.

You mean Bailey!

[Alford Bailey]

Take it and move on. This team is not talented enough for me to criticize a win.

[Golfman25]

Ugly or not, a win is a win.  On to the next.  

[Napleshoosier]

I just need to accept broadcasters flat out don’t like IU !  F’m!  F’m all bball and fball too!

I never listen to the TV for IU games.  Download the Varsity Network app on your phone and listen to Don Fischer.

I like the radio but it's so far behind the TV broadcast.

If you are still in the game thread, might want to turn on the Oregon at Purdue game....Oregon up 1 with 3:25 to go.

As much as I want Purdue to lose, they will probably end up representing our best win of the year. So I’m kind of conflicted here.

I didn’t think this was a foul live but look at Blackwell’s right foot.

Yup, exactly. He played great D but bailed out Lamar there

[Home Jersey]

The foot may have contributed to the foul being called, but with 2.8 seconds left, if it were called on us... we'd be screaming bloody murder and ripping our hair out blaming the ref. Wouldn't fault Wiscy fans for feeling that way.

Straight up fugly 15 minutes of basketball from mid way through H2 to end of OT. But a win is a win is a win. 

Take care of business against Oregon and we're well on track. 

[OliviaPope40]

Didn't even have to show Brian Butch's game winner!

[Shooter]

This team made it to late January before playing a single really close game. The kind of game that could truly go either way in the last two minutes.

Now we've had 4 in a row.

[Unexpectedflash]

Only made 5 3s and managed to win. Hopefully that’s our lowest the rest of the year

Wow. 

I, uh, guess we’ll take it? How in the world did they win this game?
