This time, however, the Hoosiers led the Spartans by 13 points shortly after halftime, only to surrender 46 second-half points to Michigan State en route to a 66-58 defeat Saturday night.

When it comes to field-goal shooting, the number 40 has dictated the Hoosiers’ record throughout the course of the year. On days when IU shot better than 40 percent from the field, the team secured a record of 14-1. When the Hoosiers shot under 40 percent, however, that record falls to 3-10.
