***Official B1G In-Season Thread***

Arkansas, Maryland, Illinois, Wisconsin. should have been at least 2-2 in those games.

Yep and would be a great spot...instead still firmly on the bubble. Though I’d think still on the right side. Just obviously can not lose to Nebraska on Wednesday

Not to mention----We are soft as butter.

Note---I still think Smith got a clean steal there.
I thought this team was tough and physical the last 4 or so games. It's a flawed team offensively. I'm also expecting next year to be another step better. IU's guards average rankings coming out of high school are only better than a small handful of teams too. Add Lander and a solid grad transfer, and you'll see a jump there too.

13-35 in the paint today

I certainly hope not.

While we are at it, extend Lil Pitino.
Miller is fine. IU shot 11-35 in the paint----THink about that----35 shots in the paint---Made 11. Not sure how that's on Miller.
 
Heck Bmore, Archie got swept by Turge this season!!

Archie feeling the heat next season if no tourney??

Yeah, I dont think he lost them this game at all. But I dont think he is the answer for you guys. I think he will do just enough to not get fired for a few more years, and then you guys will tire of that and fire him.
 
Man rough start to Archie’s career at Indiana. Missed tournament, missed tournament, and sweating on the bubble.
I still think that they will make the tourney. But, if they lose the next one, they are going to be sweating a bit.
 
IU was up 9 at the 10:04 mark. They then only scored 5 points in the next 9:09 on 5 free throws. Holy fvck.

I know Wisconsin are B1G champs but I don’t feel like they’re a top 4 team in the league lol but that’s Wisconsin hoops they just get it done
 
Coaches shouldn’t be fired in their first three years no matter the outcome. Thank you for coming to my Ted talk.

Serious question

If the last at large bid is choosing between a 19-13 Indiana squad , and 18-15 Purdue squad

who do you take? When you Account for conference record, head to head record, SOS , etc.

I think Purdue would get the nod.

I would say Purdue, but I don’t feel like dealing with the 8 pages of the shitty Purdue posters showing their ass so hopefully it doesn’t come to that.

Oh, well...Use to it with this group. We could be up 10, with 2 seconds left, and find a way to lose....THose choke jobs to Arky, Maryland and Wisky probably will cost this team a bid. Thought we were safely in...Not sure. Probably gotta win one in the BTT.

Durham hit a 3 with IU down 56-51---cutting it to 2. If not mistaken, that was Indiana's only FG from the 10 minute mark. Unreal. Its not like Wisky was lock down defensively. IU just missed a tom of easy shots...I mean, 13-35 in the paint is ridiculous. Race missed two shots from 8 inches....

Just cannot lose that game.
 
I see now why Wisconsin had a 180 from the non con.

Looks like they had no true five once Reuvers needed a break and the two bigs were Wahl and Ford. Clear they could absorb the loss of King, but not one of the two bigs.

Impressive work by Gard. Should be a top 10 squad next year provided Potter doesn't test the waters and end up a second round pick.
 
Indiana hoops under Archie is just like the Amaker years at Michigan.

Always coming up short the last week of the season. I feel your pain.

What about a 20-13 Indiana team?
I agree that if they lay an egg to Nebraska they should be left out, but the conversation becomes more interesting if they have 20 wins

I think one win in the BTT gets it done. But then again, who knows...Every bracket had IU solidly in, excpet Lunardi.
 
offenses look similar too, their super poorly coached
I disagree. I think the offense is fine. We just don't have guys who can consistently finish. Again, Indiana was 13-35 on shots in the paint. At least 10-15 of those on set plays. Tons of open looks. Smith has zero touch. IU gets looks out of their offense----they just do not make them.

Besides Lunardi IU was firmly in the field today. If they add another win to get to 20 and then lose to someone like Iowa, I have to think Indiana is at least playing in Dayton. A lot to play out over the next couple of days though.
