anyone catch the rerun of this game last night?
It was refreshing to see an IU team loaded with talent, who had half a dozen good 3pt shooters (although they didn't look like it the following week vs Wisky, or 2 weeks later vs Cuse).
But it was a shock to watch the game and see how just fast that team played. Track meet up and down the court. Worked wonders against teams like UM who tried to play a similar game. But against a ball control team (Wisc) or a half court/zone D team (Cuse), well....not so good.
Zeller was the fastest 7 footer I've ever seen play. With Vic, Sheehey, both athletic freaks. That team would beat this yr's IU team by 40 (unless the 2020 Hoosiers played a 2-3 zone...then CTC's head would explode)
I enjoyed watching the rerun much more than the original showing. That game was incredibly stressful to watch live. Still not sure how the last 2 shots (Burke/Morgan) didn't end up beating us. Ultimately UM lost the game at the free throw line.
