Quick thoughts on an 88-75 win over Louisiana Tech:
How it happened: For a half, it looked as if Indiana would run Louisiana Tech right out of Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall. The Bulldogs were shaky with their transition defense early and the Hoosiers took advantage by getting easy buckets at the rim. Then Indiana starting splashing 3s – six in the first half to be exact – and built a 23-point lead by the 7:29 mark. By halftime, the Hoosiers had amassed 52 points (1.36 PPP) and held a comfortable 16-point lead. The second half, however, was a different story.
