Indiana survived a major scare Tuesday night to beat Morehead State 69-68 at Assembly Hall.
Here are five takeaways from the win against the Eagles:
Indiana was listless in the first half
After playing well and controlling the game against No. 2 Kansas for nearly 35 minutes on Saturday, Indiana was listless in the first half against Morehead State.
The result was an 11-point deficit against a team that had lost its first three road games to high-major opponents by an average of 28.3 points.
The Hoosiers shot poorly and allowed Morehead State’s Jordan Lathon to get in rhythm and gain confidence.
