Quick thoughts on an 89-59 win over Tennessee Tech:
How it happened: On his pregame radio show interview with Don Fischer, Archie Miller said his team completed 28 or 29 practices leading up to the season. Wednesday’s matchup against low major Tennessee Tech was Indiana’s first and only chance to get a warmup game before next week’s Maui Invitational in Asheville. In a normal season, the Hoosiers would have played a closed scrimmage and two exhibitions before opening the regular season, but the COVID-19 pandemic eliminated those opportunities. So it shouldn’t have been much of a surprise that Indiana very much looked like a team that is going to need time to hit its stride this season.
