Just because you like facts and no I know no one on earth will change your mind IU was even with Michigan with Romeo on the floor today. I know 11 shots was chucking it up and he started slow but another good game and he showed so far he’s the best freshman in the BIG and it wasn’t even close. And Jordan Poole since our d was so bad ( it wasn’t great today ) had 21 against the boilers.

This game was over about 8 minutes into it. Michigan established a double digit lead and maintained it fairly consistently. IU never threatened and you are kidding yourself if you think that they did.
Yea, losing Morgan and Romeo to foul trouble 3 minutes in really allowed things to get out of hand in the 1st half.
Didnt help that Phinisee and Deron Davis were unable to play. 0 bench points.
Jordan Poole can score on anyone. He belongs in the NBA. He doesnt belong down here in college.
And this with the refs doing everything in their power to keep Indiana in the game in the second half. Michigan doesn’t foul yet the fouls were 10-3 in favor of Indiana lol.
Indiana got it down to 7 with the ball. Not disputing Michigan is the best team in the BIG but I liked that we played well even with our two best players having to sit and our PG still out. Happy we were respectable and no injuries. I do think Pu will have a good showing at MSU
I’m IUs favor? Did you watch the game? Refs didn’t cost IU the game but they didn’t keep it close. IU is a drive to the basket team drawing fouls is what they thrive on.
IU is clearly the best team in the league or else their fans wouldn’t be here telling us so.
The refs were bad in both directions (in the second half, at least, because I didn’t see the first half) I can’t say I know the reason IU lost but I’m assuming IU did it to themselves.
Maybe I missed it, but were there IU fans predicting IU would win the B1G? Prior to the season I predicted 3rd behind the two Michigan schools.
What’s up with Damezi Anderson? Did he piss of Archie or something? Feel like his minutes have dropped significantly.
He only played because of injuries. His handle isn’t very good. He has a great shot and will hopefully provide by the end of the year or start of next year.
Yes, plenty. Some were predicting elite eight or FF as well. Their were plenty saying Michigan and MSU were overrated and they should be able to contend with MSU to win the B1G.
Hes one of their best players but Archie plays a walk on in Mcroberts over him.
Similar to Goins over Tillman for Izzo and Eifert over Wheeler for Painter. Coaches love their walk ons in this conference.
Remember the good ole days when you were bragging about top 50 NET wins? As of today, how many does IU have again?
Lol, Michigan is one of the least fouling teams in the ncaa, yet fouls were 10-3 at one point in the second half. Did you watch the game? Clean steals and defense were being whistled. Refs wanted IU in the game and still was a double digit loss.
The term home court advantage didn't take place for Michigan today. 16ft's each...
As of today? 2 (Marquette and Louisville). After Butler's beatdown of Creighton and Northwestern's win today, both might jump back into the top 50 when tomorrow's rankings come out.
Indiana is not even top 30 in either offense or defense. They really dont have an identity. Theyre 28th in KenPom and have steadily been dropping.
I remember NC Trojan told me Maryland wasnt a good win for Purdue because their KenPom ranking. Maryland is now ranked higher in KenPom than Indiana, so surely he agrees Indiana isnt a good team.

Hmm I certainly dont remember saying that. I think you are making things up again. Please dont threaten to hold my family at gun point, because I disagree with you.
Damezi wouldve stopped it though.
Think the fact Archie plays a kid like Mcbob over a 4 star like Damezi might really start hurting recruiting going forward.
