Hoosiers fail to show up versus Buckeyes

·

Simply put, the IU men’s basketball team’s first Big Ten road game couldn’t have gone any worse. Aside from a 14-for-17 effort from the free throw line and a game-high 22 points from sophomore guard Verdell Jones, it’s hard to pinpoint anything else that went right for the Hoosiers.

Hoosiers suffer worst loss of season to Buckeyes

·

There were plenty of questions surrounding the health of Ohio State guard Evan Turner, but they were all for naught. He wasn’t needed.Turner began the game with a one-handed dunk, but the score was one of the only 3 points he scored in nine minutes of play in a first half that ended 38-20.More intriguing were the road struggles of IU. They had 14 first half turnovers and shot 6-of-20 from the field.

Hoosiers match up well with thin Buckeyes

For a team as young and inexperienced as IU, one building an actual NCAA Tournament resume in only the unlikeliest of scenarios, a win versus a top-level opponent is a win no matter the circumstances.

For IU, it presents another catch in what seems like the longest two years in program history.The Hoosiers will be without the heart and soul of their offense, freshman guard Maurice Creek, for the remainder of the season due to a fractured left knee suffered in the second half of the Hoosiers’ 90-42 win against Bryant Monday night at Assembly Hall.
