As I talked about in the Romeo Langford ... thread, there are 4 key stats I look at in relation to how the team I'm rooting for performs. Let's take a look at today's game against Michigan.
Formatted: FGA / effFG % / FTA / FT% (OR / TO)
MICH 55 / 54.5 / 19 / 78.1 / (8 / 8)
IU 51 / 49.0 / 14 / 64.3 / (8 / 15)
Again, why do we lose games like this? Turnovers. 10 in the first half alone, 15 for the game. Does anyone realize that in TWO games against us Michigan had LESS TOTAL TURNOVERS than we had in either game? They had 14 total (6 in Ann Arbor, 8 today); we had 16 and 15. So much for the claims on here before about how "Crean dominates Beilein" . . .
