IU

I've been mainly watching NFL, but I can't decide whether it is a horrible O$U or IU is finally living up to their potential. They do look good.
A bit of both. It's the best game IU has played this season on both ends, but OSU can't hit a shot to save their lives and their effort is non-existent.
The loss of Blackman has improved their defense and possibly their team chemistry.
Just for the record IU SUKS
Anunoby has been a better all-around contributor than Blackmon was. Bryant has really settled in too. Unfortunately if he keeps it up he might be gone after this season.
9 wins in a row and 4-0 in B1G. Time for the pitchforks to crack top 25 again...so we can take it away..again.
Got that right, OSU played like they were asleep, absolutely no fire there at all. Seems to happen often, teams go into Bloomington and things at first don't go their way, start complaining and feeling sorry for themselves and then it all goes downhill from there.
Crean deserves an extension.
IU is capable of this type of performance any game and particularly at home. It's not sustainable game in and game out but they have shooters that can turn just about any game into a blowout when they are on. Remember what they did to Maryland in Bloomington last year? Same deal. Same type of team.
These wins have to be bittersweet for true iu fans.
Bryant has certainly improved. But hold the horses on him going to the NBA after this year. He has a long way to go before he is ready for that.
He will only be gone if he hires an agent on bad advice and ruins his chances of playing in the NBA. He will be back and should be a lot better next year at IU.
I don't think he's ready, but that paycheck is hard to turn down. If he maintains his current level of play I think some teams will give him a look. Luckily for IU, there are multiple centers that would be drafted over him this year.
And yes, these wins are bittersweet. IU drew a cupcake schedule and that may save Crean's job.
A friend of mine was worried about a strange rash on his thigh the other day. Why does this break through seem related?
Puzzling, but appears to be true. Chemistry is worth more than several 5 star players. Ask UK after the Wisky loss last year.
Really? If you actually believed that, you wouldn't click on a thread named "IU".
No. Actually, it's more like...."Why are we starting a thread about our rival when we have our hands full?". But, you carry on and discuss them as we take a loss. They're undefeated in league play. Then whine when the IU trolls visit. LOL.
The OSU game was a shock to everyone, other than that IU has beaten the teams it should have. We also have a favorable schedule and only play you guys once. This Saturdays Minnesota game will tell us a lot, it's on the road and we struggle up there.
As an IU fan it's has been very frustrating watching kids with ridiculous athletic ability get driven on constantly. Maybe this is a turning point, who knows. As far as Crean goes, he is what he is.
