R or Hawks tomorrow

Let’s go Rutgers, beat Iowa.
IU then beats Rutgers tomorrow and Purdue on Sunday.
IU earns a 6 - 8 seed.
Go Hoosiers!
 
My heart says Rutgers, for revenge, but my head says Iowa, because of the matchup. Our weakness is offense, and they don't guard. Rutgers is guaranteed to be a rockfight
 
IU does NOT want an 8 or 7 seed. Let's get that 11 seed and not play a 1 or 2 until S16.
100 on this!

We're good enough to make a run. Now that we're (hopefully) in the tournament. Might as well hope for the best draw we can get.

11 Seed will be about as good a situation as we could expect.

Only "problem" with winning another game or two is it will likely move us up into the 9/10 seed range. And we don't want any of the top 7-8 teams, in the 2nd round, if we can avoid it.

The chance to win the BTT is too amazing to pass up though. And we could just as easily lose in the first round to whoever we're matched up with. So might as well do something really cool, that we've never done, this weekend!!! Even if it hurts our NCAA run chances a bit.
 
Probably Rutgers and part of that is because Iowa is playing so well right now. But I hate the hot head McCaffery's and would love for IU to beat them. Rutgers would be nice, too, since it's a fresh loss and game we should've won.
 
I should ask this on another thread.
Is JG ok?
I did not think Bates looked like he was in the dog house.
I thought X started the Carbello flare up with a bit of a disguised elbow.

I like Galloway, Race and JG (it sounds like he’s ok) taking turns on Murray. And no letting Bohannon going off. I like our chances of we still have our legs. They looked really strong today during the last 5 minutes of the game. Youth rules!

Bates is not good enough to play in these games. Especially on D.

Every time he comes in the ball stops with him, he forces a shot, he misses.

Top 35 in defensive efficiency since feb 1. Gritty as hell on the boards as well. Plus we can hide jbo on Kopp and put Perkins on X.

It was 50/50. X was clapping and walking down the floor past Curbelo and he stepped into X slightly. It was enough to create contact since X was moving his arms. I saw the same thing happen in the Iowa- Rutgers game. The B1G really needs to do something about these incidents, as well as players talking trash to the opponent’s bench. These games are physical enough without actions that just inflame tempers

If you watch it again, you'll see Cockburn bump Xavier with his chest after taking a step or two to get a better angle. Totally unnecessary contact after the play was dead.

Obviously we’re playing Iowa which is fine because they too will be playing their third game in three days. Fatigue sets in, and in theory, long jumpers tend to fall short when tired.
 
Happy for you guys - think you are probably in the dance. Congrats! Makes up for you 4 win football season - or was it 3?

Small sample size. You'll have to double our posts. You can't hide a guy when you are in scramble mode, and Kopp is capable of making you pay. We will see tomorrow.
