IU excels at its Indiana home, falters on road

·

After a loss Sunday at home to conference foe Northwestern, the IU women’s basketball team now stands at 5-12, including a 0-4 start in the Big Ten.

They’ve won by almost six more points when in Bloomington, and their losses have been much closer as they lose by seven points fewer on average.  Here’s a look at the IU women’s basketball team’s home court advantage so far in the 2011-12 campaign.
