Official Indiana @ Nebraska Game Thread

[IU Hoosier41 14,465]

An Indiana win would skate the Hoosiers at 4th in the Big Ten standings. Definitely winnable, but won't be a win without solid fundamentals! What do you guys think?

This one still ticks me off! [attachment=335:ImageUploadedByBtownBanners1391061850.520213.jpg]

That loss still hurts big time. A win here puts us where we want to be, though. As far as the B1G and momentum going into Sunday. This one is big, but aren't they all now?

That one bring back a lot of bad memories just ask Jordy Hulls.

Really excited for IU's next two game actually. Will be interesting to see how the Hoosiers come out tonight.

I'm more confident IU wins on Sunday than today! I'll be in Bloomington for the game, and IU wins when I'm in Bloomington! (See my Wisconsin post)

Does Nebraska still have that really big guy on their team?

I don't believe so. Pretty sure he was a senior.

This is shaping up to be a great day- boss is out of the office (tomorrow too!), my favorite bar has Hopslam (tremendous IPA), IU women's team also plays tonight, and men's team in action!!  Since it's above zero, I might even throw some burgers on the grill for the game, lol!  Deverell Biggs being kicked off Nebraska is going to be key for us.  Pretty excited for this game!

Nebraska is 9-1 at home, with their only defeat being a 1 point loss to Michigan (undefeated in the conference). Don't let the name fool you, this is going to be a very tough game.

Need to win tonight to have momentum going into our game at home vs. Michigan.

 

A win tonight and a win saturday would be huge for us if we're trying to make the tournament.

I honestly think these might be two MUST win games. The B1G keeps beating themselves up which discredits most good wins you have. Also discredits some losses, but the wins is more important.

Has Nebraska played without Biggs?

Yeah, they beat Minn. 

[ElectricBoogaloo 4,307]

Yep, and Minnesota is surprisingly good this year.

Also, per ITH:

 

"Nebraska favored by 1 over Indiana according to Vegas, 1.5 according to Sagarin and 3 according to Pomeroy"

 

In case anyone was doubting Nebraska's team this year.

I'm looking forward to this game. I think we have actually looked really good on the road this year (yes 23 turnovers at ILL but we were doing that at home too). I think we are gonna get it done. Throwing out the Cuse game Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

IMO, this week is make or break week for us.  We can prove a lot or fail.  We have very little buffer in the season anymore.  The Wisconsin win unfortunately does not look as good as it once did.  We need to get these coin flip games to get to where we want to be. 

[mdn82 25,546]

I doubt them EB, but not at home.  They just bring it at that place.

Wisconsin doesn't look as good, but we still beat the #3 team at the time. People will still view that as a key win when the selection committee goes to work.

Wisconsin still has the number 3 rpi which is still impressive
