Utah St/ Boise St.   MWC on a Saturday.   Utah St up 14 with 11:27 to go 

Utah St up 23 at half.    They looked really good

Texas up 3 at Bama with 4 minutes left
No sweat, Sean

This game is a hard watch right now.   Appeals and coach challenges have slowed this game to a crawl

Wonder if Iowa fans are going to moan and complain about McCollum after losing to a ranked team by 6 on their home floor

They probably should but they are Iowa and we are Indiana.  The supposed minimum expectation is to make the Tournament.   Our team is treading that line very dangerously and not seen as a threat to do anything this year.  That’s not the type of teams Indiana should be fielding on a year to year basis.  Some say we have top 10 nil.  I think it’s 15-25.  Either way, with those resources we should be better than Iowa.  Better than Nebraska. And better than what we are.  Expectations are slipping and that is fine, I guess, because it hasn’t helped us either.

From what I’ve seen they’ve got similar complaints: team isn’t athletic enough, Stirtz isn’t athletic enough to carry the team at this level—especially defensively, hoping to struggle through conf play and sneak into the tourney, etc…  

 

They seem more accepting of a traditional long term rebuild though, but then again they’re Iowa.   
 

The lack of athleticism is a good parallel to us, same with the solid metrics despite mediocre results. They don’t have the trend of giving up leads and getting out coached in the 2nd half of about every big game they’ve played, which I sense is a growing sense of frustration for IU fans.

“Out coached”.  Goodness.
