IU vs Pittsburgh Official Game Thread

[Trish 11,556]

Defense is key... but isn't it the key every game?ha

 

 

I say we run a 2-3 zone. Can Pitt shoot? i liked our 2-3 the times we have ran it this season.

Crean has to play Emit in this game. Pitt is a very good rebounding team and Hanner hasn't proved himself to me that he can play the way they need him to. I know Troy can handle himself, and Crean already said that Jeremiah wasn't going to get much playing time. The way I see it, Emit is the only option left. I know Collin gets in the game and hustles, and I like the way he plays, but Emit has to be in this game if they are going to win.

Well its gameday ladies and gents, ive been staying awhile for a bit, just to let things cool down, but we are back! For those that dont know tipoff is at 7pm on ESPN2.....

Also just for fun.....

 

Indiana -3 vs. Pitt +3 (Indiana the home favorite by 3)

 

Ken Pomeroy has Indiana as 64th overall and Pitt 37th overall, and predicts IU has a 58% chance to win!

 

 

 

 

Discuss! Its GAMEDAY!

I use Tunein radio up here in NW Ind. when  the local  AM radio station either defers to the boilmakers or other programming.  Besides you cant beat Fisch anyway:)

Eh, Pitt isn't a good rebounding team. They average 34.8 per game, which is good for 198th in the country. 

 

We've actually rebounded the ball better so far this season than Pitt

Free Holt.

I'll date myself a bit if my Moniker hasn't already done enough.

  When I think of Pitt I think of Charles Smith and Jerome Lane.Jerome was 6,6'',around 230 and a rebounding machine

They tore the big east down.Rebounders have an instinct and desire that some people no matter how tall they are don't possess.

I believe we have one on this team and he's a freshman.

Lets play the guy what do you guys think?

I emailed this video out to all my CBB friends, even though they disslike IU, they love and envy the fanbase. F THEM! We are Indiana!

Man I was our lineup was that big.

Even if it was, I don't see us ever playing a 4-forward and 1-guard lineup.

I meant wish, friggin' typos.

 

I know we wouldn't have a lineup like that, but man I'd love to see it.
