Glass Houses

Bucky Badger comes to town tonight to take on the Hoosiers at 9m.

The Hoosiers, losers of eight in a row, are looking for signs of life as they close out the last four games of the Big Ten season.

What should we look for playing against a team that absolutely left no doubt, 83-55, in Wisconsin?

Well, I’ll go first.

Anything.

Sounds vague.  Is vague.

Show some signs of life.

Get a technical foul.

Run a backdoor cut for an alley-oop to Watford.

Bleed.

Beat your chest.

Something.

Something else.

Somethings different would include better:

Help side defense.

On the ball defense.

Transition defense.

Quit standing around on offense.

Hoping for the bench to contribute.

Hoping for anyone besides Jones and Watford to hit double figures.

Playing harder than the normal hard.

Not scoring for large portions of the game.

Indiana hasn’t played since Saturday and in the recent past, Indiana has played well with extended rest/preparation.  Is tonight the night similar to last year against Michigan State here in Bloomington, when the Hoosiers put everything  together for one game late in the season and steal a victory?

Give me something to believe in Hoosiers.

It’s been a while.

Prediction:  Wisconsin 66  Indiana (+12.5) 63

Close again.
