This IU defense is giving Marian fits, the Knights have 0 points in the last 6:18

Basketball has started? Well I'll be.

Devries hits two quick threes to extend the lead to 22. IU 26 Marian 4

IU is on a 23-0 run over the last 7:40. Sam Alexis playing physical defense and Tucker DeVries is on fire with 18 points

Another turnover for this IU defense. Marian hasn't scored in 8:47

I really want to be as into IU BBall as ever.. struggling with that with all the new faces coupled with all the excitement around football.

Pretty quiet in here for a game thread ...

Marian takes a time out. A 7-4 game has ballooned to a 31-4 lead for the Hoosiers. 9:24 left in the half.

It is 31-4...good activity on defense, good ball movement on offense and Tucker DeVries is going to be a blast to watch.

TUCKER DEVRIES CANNOT BE STOPPED! He now has 17!

31-4 IU

9:24 - Marian Timeout. IU 31 Marian 4. The Knights have no answer for Devries or this IU defense

I have to put the kid to bed. I'll be back after half

7:30 Media Timeout - IU 37 Marian 5

I know the difference in athleticism and size is quite stark but the attention level and competitiveness and activity on defense has been impressive from IU. It's 37-5 with 7:30 remaining in the first half.

@hillzhoozier I never get too involved until conference time. Unless we’ve got a big name opponent
