Well someone needed to start this thread so here you go.

The key to this game will be defending ISUb's backcourt. Barnes and Key can really fill it up and Neese is dangerous as well.

Post play vs. Guard Play....

We need to score a lot in the paint with or post players and shoot 3's primarily on sickouts.  They need to hit a high percentage from 3 and drive the basketball to the hoop with their really good guards. 

Makes it tough to predict because their guards are that good and if they are hot from 3 they can beat a lot of teams.

It will be close, not sure who wins, but they are home so I think Vegas has it about right.

It's clear (and mostly accurate) Vegas just gives a large bias to the home team. ISUr visiting Bradley tonight is a pick em.

I just realized that Indiana State is the only MVC school on eastern time zone.

Terre Haute is in Vigo County.

Makes zero sense.  I'm in Nashville and I am on Central time while Vigo County is on Eastern?  ???

It doesn't make sense that most of Indiana is in the Eastern time zone.
Almost every year, a lawmaker wants to propose a bill to put the whole state on Central time. That would make the most sense.
It's ridiculous that kids all over the state have to go to school in the dark from November through basically February.

Indiana time has never made sense.  I grew up east of Valpo during the time that Northwest Indiana was on Central time and observed DST while most surrounding counties were on Eastern time and not using DST.  A town 10 miles away where we shopped and saw doctors was an hour ahead for half the year and in sync for the other half.  Crazy.

I think these states that are partially on Eastern and central time need to just pick one and be done. The State should be uniform in this regard. I don't care which one they pick but they should absolutely make a choice.

Holy heck what middle school are these announcers from?

I honestly prefer our student radio announcers to these guys. Our students do a great job. They are much better than ISU's announcers.

Sorolla looks extremely timid. I count 3 times he should have gone up with a shot and didn't. Shots aren't falling early but a great block by Freeman.

TuneIn radio for Todd Ickow call and mute the tv.

Maybe I'm just annoyed that we look terrible but I'm finding this almost unlistenable.

VUGrad1314

Why are we so bad tonight? It can't be the crowd It's like a church service in there

VUGrad1314

This is embarrassing We look at times scared and indecisive at times totally out of control Indiana State is a fine team but we're making far too many mistakes We need to cut into this deficit
