However impressed I am by this particular Nebraska team, I can confidently say that this was Indiana’s worst loss of the season and maybe of the last couple. Because the Huskers are so good, it may not hurt Indiana’s resume, but man was it hard to watch.
Making things worse tonight were the heightened expectations Indiana fans had upon hearing that Xavier Johnson would be returning to the lineup. With the chance for a good road win in early January on the line, the Hoosiers did not show up (with one exception).
Probably the last thing Indiana could afford to do tonight was let Keisei Tominaga get hot from 3-point range and it did just that.
