Facing Ohio State, Hoosiers Down, But Not Out

IUHoosiers.com

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Once again, Indiana got knocked down.

Once again, the Hoosiers face a choice -- stay down or rise to the challenge.

In this case, beat top-25 Ohio State Monday night at the Schottenstein Center.

Tough losses rock you, and IU was rocked big-time in its last game, a 74-69 home defeat to top-20 Wisconsin last Tuesday that extended its losing streak to four straight.

Were the Hoosiers broken?

Not even close.

Forward Race Thompson insists Indiana, despite four straight defeats and potential not-again dread from previous late-season slumps, is ready for the Ohio State challenge, and the other four remaining regular season games that follow.
