I'm being serious this time

OK, I really mean it this time. The Hoosiers can win at home versus Penn State tonight. In fact, I still can't believe they lost the first time. \nThe Hoosiers forced 18 turnovers while only committing 13 and still lost, 71-68. \nThe reason for the loss was simple. IU allowed the Nittany Lions to get easy shots in the paint. Penn State shot 51 percent from the field, and forwards Geary Claxton and Travis Parker killed the Hoosiers with 20 and 21 points respectively. \nThe Hoosiers simply need to stop Claxton's penetration on the defensive end and get some of their own on the offensive end. Marshall Strickland and Earl Calloway need to use their quickness to get into the paint and either get lay-ups or get fouled. Settling for jump shots simply won't work over the final stretch of this season. \nRobert Vaden also needs to make sure his recent shooting woes don't affect the rest of his game. His 4-13 (1-for-9 3-point shooting) performance this past Sunday was hard to watch. The Hoosiers need to stop forcing up threes if they aren't there, and be more aggressive. \nIf the Hoosiers play up to their potential, they should end their five-game losing streak. If they play like they have lately, it will be a long night.
