Game Information

Indiana 17-11 (8-9) vs. No. 13 Michigan State 23-5 (13-4)

Tip Time: 3:45pm

TV: CBS

Line: MSU -3.5

 

IU is back at it again after a disastrous loss to Northwestern. IU has received some bubble help as it seems no team wants to solidify there position yet. All eyes will also be on Ohio State vs. Purdue as the Hoosiers and Buckeyes are part of the Last 4 In group according to multiple outlets' bracketology predictions.

It's a "White Out" game, so MSU has little chance. If it were a "normal" fan attire game, I'd say MSU by 13. But we all know how impactment 17,000 wearing a single color can be.

@gthomas The most laughable part may be the 17,000

I have seen OSU play 4 times now and by the eye test they always talk about in March…..they are better than us IMO. We will see this coming weekend but if they beat PU it probably won’t matter!

So the email DeVries sent out begging fans to show up to our final 3 home games didn't have the effect he wanted?

He seriously did that?

@gthomas Yeah, he sent it to students. Basically, took a page out of Cig's playbook. Except without the catch phrase and he lost.

The crowds, even for the Purdue game, have not been close to sell outs. Heck, there were even students from the balcony leaving at half time. Times have really changed. I'd be shocked if there were actually 17,000 there today.

OSU currently dominating PU, they showed up ready to play for their tournament lives.

@thehoosierhuddle When IU can't sell out a game against a ranked Purdue team, that indicates some serious fan disinterest/apathy. 

You'd think moving on from He Who Shall Not Be Named would reinvigorate the fan base. Guess not.

@gthomas The damage down by both the last two staffs was a deeper wound than most knew or cared to admit.

@thehoosierhuddle….It speaks volumes of the state of the program. It is like the movie Goundhog Day….we are reliving the same season over and over and it doesn’t matter who coaches!

At least he cares enough to send an email, which is more than I can say for the guy in charge the previous four seasons.

@thenickeldimer As I've mentioned, a mediocre coach is a program's enemy: Not good enough to be a contender, but not bad enough to get a quick ax.
