No one is safe in Big Ten basketball.
Mackenzie Holmes set a new career-high of 32 points Thursday afternoon, but when the final buzzer sounded it didn’t matter. No. 4 Indiana fell to unranked Michigan State in a 83-78 upset that no Hoosier will look back upon fondly.
“We’re going to get everybody’s best, our best just has to be better,” Teri Moren said postgame. “And today it just wasn’t.”
Indiana’s first loss of the season came in a way that was bound to happen eventually — the energy and production that was so prevalent in the first 12 games was missing.
