IUsince1980 Posted March 25, 2016 Posted March 25, 2016 Confidence takes a crushing blow with no Rojo... My faith has turned to uneasy nerves Im not too worried as it just means more OG. Im just worried in general.
hoosiers55 Posted March 25, 2016 Posted March 25, 2016 One reservation I have about this game is in the Crean era we have been slaughtered by athletic big men like Brice Johnson (i.e. Harrel, Hayes, Green etc). Brice Johnson is the only matchup I am scared of killing us.
IUsince1980 Posted March 25, 2016 Posted March 25, 2016 One player can slaughter us all he wants ie Ulys. What we hafta avoid is the silly turnovers and getting kills of the boards. ALASKA HOOSIER 1
MartintheMopMan Posted March 25, 2016 Author Posted March 25, 2016 No RoJo hurts but we've shown we can excel even without him. They have more stars, but we're the better team. One of the teams in that arena will be playing in the Final Four and it sure as hell isn't going to be them. I've spent the whole day in the nervous excited state you get before a big test. This is the big test, and we're going to wreck the curve so hard that people start dropping the course. HoosierAloha, Class of '66 Old Fart, Str8Hoosiers and 2 others 5
FloridaHoosierGirl Posted March 25, 2016 Posted March 25, 2016 (edited) Quote Stressed as usual and more than 2 hours before game time. Husband has to get up early for work so I've already told him he's a wimp for wanting to go to bed early. He's a Hoosier by marriage, not birth. There is no way I could sleep! Told him not t expect me to be quiet! Edited March 25, 2016 by FloridaHoosierGirl correct spelling Napleshoosier and Scooter D 2
HoosierAloha Posted March 26, 2016 Posted March 26, 2016 One bad sign is its looking like the parody ends with the #1 seeds as they are crushing everyone Someone has to take them down. Why not IU? I'd be cool with 3/4 #1 seeds making it to the Elite 8... ALASKA HOOSIER and FloridaHoosierGirl 2

mdn82 Posted March 26, 2016 Posted March 26, 2016 Can I ask why everyone keeps bringing up the Carolina break like we don't want to run with them? We are at our best when we run. We hit our shots when the pace is fast. Nobody has said anything about that? theriverpilot, BlueDevil, HoosierAloha and 4 others 7

Last game, UNC ran Providence off the floor in the 2nd half and IU for probably the 1st time in forever had 0 fast break pts vs pUKe. That's as far as anyone goes in analyzing games now.

mdn82 Posted March 26, 2016 Posted March 26, 2016 It's just nuts. They may beat us but can anyone remember the last time someone beat us playing our game? ALASKA HOOSIER, Napleshoosier and Parakeet Jones 3

We do need to get back in transition and make sure they only get one shot in transition. biteoftheapple and mdn82 2
Hoosiers219 Posted March 26, 2016 Posted March 26, 2016 No Rojo!! I thought the "iffy" comment was just showmanship or typical misdirection. Damn!!!
Brass Cannon Posted March 26, 2016 Posted March 26, 2016 Man, such a trainwreck right now. OG and Yogi have to play big minutes and like men tonight. Troy has to be laser focused as we all know he can. ALASKA HOOSIER 1
Bittersince87 Posted March 26, 2016 Posted March 26, 2016 Living in nc , I've been washed down by many locals who say we don't have a chance. I really hope we win.
