Indiana vs Minnesota Post Game Thread

[quote name="JSHoosier" post="36453" timestamp="1391924075"]Just spill the beans. Jaybob is special in his own unique way, but he doesn't count.

My best guess would've been Hoosier Lyss. When Jaybob said there might be a special guest for the tailgate he was talking about her IIRC.

Although I wouldn't have complained if Alex Morgan dropped by just to say hello.

EDIT: I replied to the wrong post. I meant to quote the one where you said there might be a special guest and we'd have to be on our best behavior. BTW, when are we ever on good behavior? We have a forum that is password protected for crying out loud lol.[/quote]

Alex is actually my wife. She doesn't know it yet, but she totally is.

Anyway, this game was tough on me.  I pretty much guaranteed we would win.  The result sucked no doubt but, was compounded for me because I thought I saw so much improvement in our overall game in the first half.  We did so many good things, we finally played as though we WERE maturing.  I absolutely loved what Troy HMP and Jeremy were able to show.  It was everything I always said could happen.  Then Minnesota woke up.  We had a couple guys have tough games and the pressure got us.  Now I know everyone is going after the coaching staff again but I don't think that lost the game. No, not this time. Sorry.  The Credit in this one has to go to the Gophers.  They came out in the second half and suffocated us, SUFFOCATED with their defense.  They pressed, pushed, blocked out and rebounded like a much better team.  Eventually that pressure got to us and affected us on both ends.  We were confused and tentative.  I don't care if we had John freaking Wooden on our sideline.  We got out played.  So what now?  I really don't know.  Like many others I figured we had 3-4 losses to give.  I did not expect this to be one.  Hopefully Northwestern showed their true colors tonight and we get another road win from Wisky or Mich.  Otherwise, we r out.

I'm not going to say much about the coaching in this one.  I don't know why he thought Evan should've been in, and I would've gone to a trapping press with about a minute left but other than that I didn't have a problem with that aspect.

Hey, is EG really that bad defensively or did he have a bad night?  I guess I never really paid attention.  Dude, he was sooo slow!  If he's really that bad on D I gotta agree he shouldn't have been on the floor.  Hope he just was tired or something.  I honestly never knew he was so slow on his feet.

[quote name="cappymo14" post="36411" timestamp="1391921856"]Couldn't get on all game. Or last game. Or Nebraska. I'm not going to complain yet but I really am starting to wonder if I'm being frozen out for some reason. Mysteriously, I'm able to get on as soon as the game ends, to see 14+ pages on the game thread. I know it sucks for you guys too, hope you can get it fixed.[/quote]

Doing everything we can to get it corrected. Just don't know what else we can do honestly. Keep plugging away and trying to solve the problems.

No worries, I don't type fast enough anyway.  By the time I get off a reply, the moment has long since passed.  Tonight was even worse, I went over to another site (sorry) and was commenting on the game.  It seemed weird.  What I didn't realize was, I had paused my DVR while going to the bathroom but, never caught it up again when I returned.  Long story short, I was commenting on game action that happened 10 minutes prior.  So I guess maybe it's not so critical that I was left out today.  Yep, that happened.
