Who could have imagined it but what's absolutely crazy is that IU has lost the last 5 games to Northwestern. At one time the game against the Wildcats was a gimme. The recent IU / Northwestern results have shown how far the Indiana basketball program has fallen. I expect DeVries and the boys will break the streak tonight and get the Hoosiers on the right path.
They better do something.
@bigmike I was a student when Northwestern won at AH for the first time in a very long time or even ever. Man, it was shocking. I’ll have to go back and look at the year.
Northwestern is always a layup! (reviews recent results) Oops... Uhh, big game!
Every game is a play-in game from here on. Get it done, HOOOSIERS!

@thehoosierhuddle I had to check to get the details straight but I recall sitting back in the rafters of Assembly Hall as a very young IU student on January 14, 1974. Fans were extremely upset even though the highly favored Hoosiers won 72-67. Didn't lose but many unhappy people simply because the "score was too close."
My perspective has changed over the years. I'd be more than pleased with any kind of win tonight.
You studied in Evanston? That helps explain a lot ... in a very good way. That school has a killer journalism program.I was a student when Northwestern...
I waxed college, but I didn't have the goods for Northwestern out of high school. I'm fairly certain my rejection letter said something like, "You're kidding, right?"
@gthomas LOL no. I went to IU. I have a degree in sports communications and a Master’s in Education (Canisius). Love Evanston though. Cool little town
Ahh, I must have misread. I'm glad to hear you took your talents to Bloomington. Helluva writer, you are.@gthomas LOL no. I went to IU. I have a degree in sports communications and a Master’s in Education (Canisius). Love Evanston though. Cool little town
Note: My apologies for turning into Yoda with that last sentence.
@thehoosierhuddle The only reason I wrote for Bleacher Report back in the day was to get a press pass (with great parking). I probably broke media credential rules by using that "power" to get my kids pics with Hulls and Crean.
@gthomas Thank ya. It's been a lot of fun running this site and working with the team we have.
