oh yeah dick enberg is going to banish us to hell, but we will win this game to tick him off. Go Hoosiers.

76-75 hoosiers...Bassett scores 22...DJ goes for 18 and 12 boards...EJ scores 19 with triples...and Stemler bricks 12 more from downtown before hitting the game-winner at the buzzer. no no...before BANKING the game-winner at the buzzer.

oops...left out 5 for the number of treys that EJ will drain to go with his 24 turnovers

i think you left out the stat line. 0-9 but 19-20 from the free throw line! i hope he can start hitting the jumpers.

didn't leave it out...i just don't think he'll go to the rack much today. but it will be more like 5-20 from downtown and 4-5 from the line

Michigan State can't "win" this game. Only way they get the W is if IU "loses". We are a way better team than they are. If we can have about an 85%-90% effort towards our best...we win. If we have one of our 3-4 best games of the year...we kill 'em. I feel like EJ is going to get off. When is the last time he has done so? If we stumble badly out of the gate...we could be in trouble. But, I think we will start well and build a lead the entire game to win by at least 8. Go Hoosiers!

reply

BTW, I think we match our average B10 points. What is it...like 73 pts.?

Yikes...76.4...just checked. Man it's so good to see us so high and leading in B10 stats. Last time I remember was Covey and the boys.

If Armon and Jamarcus can play defense on Neitzel and Morgan we will win this game but if not it'll be a long afternoon.....we will need Jordan too come off bench and score about 15 points, EJ needs to play under control if and if he starts getting eratic DD needs to pull him out but if Armon does what he does and DJ controls the paint the game shouldnt even be a scare

IU 69 MSU 57

Basset-13
DJ-26
EJ-17

MSU is favored by 5? I am a bit surprised by this. I understand that winning on the road is a tough task. But IU won soundly in the first meeting and is playing decent away from Assembly Hall.

With that being said, I could see the Hoosiers stumbling. Especially with the Spartans wanting revenge and trying desperately to make the NCAA tourney. The struggles against Northwestern and Ohio State leave me thinking we are due for a loss.

I definitely hope I'm wrong. A Big Ten championship is still within reach.

reply

JamesHardy
il y a 1 année

There's a reason that MSU is still ranked...all the writers and pollsters think more highly of them than any other team this side of Duke. They're in the tournament, but mark my word...they are ONE AND DONE!

This Kalin Lucas is a star in the making at PG for MSU...he worries me a bit today

reply

BrianK
il y a 1 année

Yeah I don't see how but the pollsters love them. How could Duke be in top 25 after losing to Wake and MIami in one week? Pollsters and writers need to come off their teets once in awhile.

Minnesota yesterday beat OSU by fourteen at home. IU beat both Northwestern and OSU by only three. We need to step it up today if we are going to beat MSU. The Spartans have lost to Iowa and Penn State with this game so important to them. Stemler, Thomas, Crawford, Gordan and Ellis needs to pick it up big time. DJ and Bassett will be fine. Does not surprise me that MSU is favored by 5. You would have to say they are the biggest disappointment of the Big Ten this year.

reply

BrianK
il y a 1 année

Ok guy I got the bets of the day. 1. Over/Under when Stemler gets his first foul and we get the" look" i'll say 3:30 minutes. 2. Will Thomas get his 2 pts before or after he gets his first foul.

reply

JamesHardy
il y a 1 année

i've got 0:02 into the game on Stemler...i got a feeling about the tip-off today! Your Thomas bet is easy money...you need to make it something like this...what does he finish with more of....PFs, TOs, or Points???

If he would step up. Could you imagine how much tougher we would be. It would be unreal.

This year's team has a lot of true athletes but is undisciplined and erratic. Given more maturity and experience they will be good but right now MSU may be too good at MSU. We have been squeaking out wins over poor teams but MSU is a good team.

its not our players fault that MSU is shooting 84% so how about all of you just stop giving are players crap MSU decided that they would put magnets inside the ball and on the rim so they would shoot good IU will get that rim and ball next half so we will se what happens and there is no way that someof these offensive fouls are really happening against us

Any team can shoot 84% from the field with this type of terrible defense.

yOUR RIGHT - WHAT DEFENSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

reply

Scott
il y a 1 année

It is our players fault. No transition defense. Open shots for Neitzel. Weak ass 2-3 zone. Weak man to man defense. No movement on offense. Turnover after turnover. But DD needs to get in their face and light a fire under their ass.

In the three games played since Sampson left "for the best interest of the program" this team has played at about half speed. We're looking at exiting in the first round of the NCAA tournament unless Dakich can stir things up. He needs to turn the starters into reserves for the Minnesota and Penn State games for one thing.
