IU vs SMU Game Thread

[AZ Hoosier 10,987]

It was a very ugly start, but not a bad recovery.

Very satisfied with the effort last years group would have rolled over after that start. Uncle Mo on IUs side.

Big turnaround there. NZ's 4-point play and JBJ's shooting for us back in this game. Not to mention SMU making mental mistakes. They had 11 turnovers to our 4. Really like that.

Williams has looked good in his first game back. If we can control the boards and minimize their paint okay, we definitely pull this one out.

Not sure how much of this comeback should be accredited to Indiana knocking down some threes or SMU forgetting everything they were doing when they were dominating us.  Three pointers are funny how they work like that..

At the rate we’re going so far this year, we aren’t going to "control" the boards. But if we battle for ’em, we should be ok.

How about 11 field goals on 8 assists.   That'll work.  9-10 from the FT line didn't hurt either.

Yogi has to be the one who takes the last shot of the half every game, whether he's open or not.

I like your word better lol. By control I meant keep them in check. We can't let them get 2nd and 3rd chance points, that really hurt us in this game.

yeah, that’s "leadership". :o

agreed. that’s the killer.

[Walking Boot of Doom 18,170]

I really want to see more cuts from us. No one is cutting.

[AZ Hoosier 10,987]

Rebounds are better at the half. Now it’s 21-15. Much better than 10-2.

Sheehey was so good at that, but I agree. Need to keep the defense guessing. A lot of our offense was predictable, which made it hard to drive.

[IU Hoosier41 14,491]

Didn't see much of Stan after his initial check in

[Walking Boot of Doom 18,170]

Over/under 25% chance we see Holt in the first 15 mins on the 2nd half.

[Class of '66 Old Fart 91,129]

Looking like last year with Yogi having to do it all. 

And many times trying to do too much.  Last year he didn't have a whole lot of help; this year he does and he needs to be a little less selfish with the ball at times.

[JaybobHoosier 13,192]

Almost 2nd half time.

[JaybobHoosier 13,192]

Man, if RoJo connected, that would have been huge.

[JaybobHoosier 13,192]

Really guys.

Does Crean teach blocking out?
