Thoughts on an 81-69 win against the Hawkeyes:
It’s been a long week for Indiana basketball.
The home loss to Purdue last Thursday had fans upset, some cascading towards apathy for this season … and the program. The vacuum created by the canceled game against Michigan State on Sunday only added more time to wallow in it all.
But the season isn’t over. There are games yet to be played. No one on the court seems to be giving up. And tonight was a reminder that for all the on-paper shoulds of Big Ten basketball, once the ball is tipped, you never really know what’s going to happen.
