This press has us all flustered. 

We took Marquettes apart and since then we look like a middle school team that’s not used to being pressed every time we see on. Very passive

[RoadRage]

I blame all this on Wisconsin…why do we always catch these teams after a bad loss?

[IUCrazy2]

Consistently poor officiating in this league.  For all the money it makes you would think they could buy some decent referees.

[DChoosier]

With their length, and inside/outside game, Illinois could be IU’s worst matchup in the Big Ten.

Play Sisley over Bailey

Bailey is a world’s better defender than Trent. He did a nice job defensively in the first half—better than Sam.

Ya and Illinois did a great job by doubling on both passes in transition and trapped us on the side line for that crappy pass to Wilkerson. Looks like Illinois has made some adjustments as they should have.

Let’s see if we can have a great first five minutes of the second half. If we do we’ve got a puncher’s chance in probably our toughest matchup on the schedule. If not? Not a big deal because it looks like this IU team has found its identity.

Welp.

[Home Jersey]

Odd use of our challenge IMO

[str8baller]

Just get rid of review entirely if you can’t get that call corrected

[realTomCrean]

Tough call

Agreed. Imagine if they had Stojakovic healthy. They are final four good this year. 

[realTomCrean]

Sweet call 

[LamarCheeks]

That seemed like a guess on that challenge. If you're gonna use it -- you gotta be 100% sure.

I was excited about the Marquette win but they are currently 102’nd in Kenpom just ahead of Hofstra, Hawaii and Pacific.

[Stuhoo]

Bad call-Lamar got cleanly blocked. We kinda needed a little break though.

Underwood does alright. Psychotic but a decent coach. He is the new Fran of Big Ten coaches. 

[Home Jersey]

Huge and 1. Wilkerson is soooo fun.

[LamarCheeks]

Dammit, Tucker. Keep driving. 

Either shoot a little 12-footer or keep going to the bucket. 

Don't stop once you get into the lane.
