After defeating #4 Iowa Thursday night in Assembly Hall, Indiana's record against AP Top 25 ranked teams at home in the Tom Crean era improved to 18-13. Having a record above .500 against the Top 25 is pretty good, but in the interest of NOT SETTLING FOR MEDIOCRITY, I investigated the records for some other noted basketball powers during the same seasons (08-09 through the present). Against the AP Top 25 at home, Duke is 18-2. Michigan State is 17-9. Kansas is 25-2.
The first thing you can take away from these numbers is that Indiana has played a lot of highly thought of teams at home in the last 7 years plus.
