College Bball Thread

I think I had that worded wrong I wasn't saying they were all Indiana kids but have Indiana kids on their roster and like you guys had mentioned those kids ALWAYS get up to play Indiana it seems. Butler fans will show out for that game as usual and we never seem to shoot well in Indy. I know we play Louisville in Indy as well but we don't have to play perfect to beat them as they aren't that intimidating to me. They seem to shoot a lot of bad shots and don't have much of an offense. If Purdue was smart and decided to go to Swanigan early in that game (only 1 shot in first half)...Purdue wins in Louisville easy.

I wonder whose streak was longer, probably Kansas or Duke right?

We have to be top 5 in terms of consecutive home wins, I think we're at 23 straight now, and none since the 2014-2015 season.

According to IUs Twitter we are 7th. 8th before UK lost.

I went and watched Butler play and not by choice but I thought they looked good although some could use some work. Right now they are 18th in the polls and I think they will move up 2 spots. They will probably give us a good game and they have everybody back from last years team minus Roosevelt Jones and Kellen Dunham. I still hold a grudge from letting a walk on beat us.

I actually won't be surprised if Butler beats us. They're a well coached team who doesn't make many mistakes and plays smart basketball aka true Indiana basketball. They always seem to get up for us just like most Indiana schools as a lot of players wanna show Indiana what they're missing out on. I called it before the Ft Wayne game we'd lose to Fort Wayne and Butler but beat UNC, Kansas, and Louisville. Hope I'm wrong but I just have a bad feeling about that game especially without OG or a banged up OG. Gonna have to play perfect basketball versus Butler to win that and we're still very young so I guess we'll find out soon enough.

Butler is REALLY good. We will have to limit turnovers and be efficient. Our last two games have shown me that we can play as a driving team just as well as we can from behind the 3 point line.

The very first Butler game I went to was when Butler had AJ Graves and I don't remember who they were playing because I young at the time.

Going to hopefully scout Butler Wednesday night at the Hulman Center.  Could be a good game.  My trees lost 3 close ones in the Advocare Invitational, but had chances to beat Iowa State at the buzzer, Lost to Stanford by 3, at the last second, and the Quinnipec game?  They lost, but man it wasn't their best game.

Not a fan of the Graves family.  The older brothers beat Mooresville several years running in the early 90's, 91-92 and 92-93 I think, when we had some good Mooresville teams!

Sean Miller told reporters that Arizona's Parker Jackson-Cartwright will miss about eight weeks with a high ankle sprain. 

6-8 weeks isn't all that unusual for a severe high ankle sprain but fortunately it doesn't sound like OG's is anywhere near that bad.

They have what is perceived to be the best win. I feel UK was overrated so I disagree.

For as much crap that he gets about his coaching there are those times when he becomes like everybody else.

Overrated or not that's a good win on the road, probably the best true road win of the season.

Why do I have Iowa vs. Stetson on the SEC Network?

[Stuhoo]

Why do I have Iowa vs. Stetson on the SEC Network?

Ooh...a riddle!!!

To raise the academic standards and graduation rates for SEC schools?

[HoosierAloha]

Why do I have Iowa vs. Stetson on the SEC Network?

Foreshadowing...?

Stetson is the same quality as the middle tier of the SEC?

Iowa is going to win the SEC East title this season?
