Can the Hoosiers rebound?

By Matt Mattucci · Thursday, Jan. 25,2007 11:45 p.m.

The IU men's basketball team hopes to rebound Saturday afternoon against the Michigan Wolverines, and in more ways than one. Besides chasing down missed shots and crashing the offensive glass, the Hoosiers will also look to rebound from their recent loss to Illinois. The Hoosiers lost 51-43 to the Fighting Illini on Tuesday night in Champaign, Ill., which ended IU's five-game winning streak. IU coach Kelvin Sampson has stressed all year the importance of his players being able to hang their hats on something. That something, he hoped, would be the Hoosiers' defense and rebounding.

By Jim O’Connell · Monday, Jan. 22,2007 3:01 p.m.

Kelvin Sampson's first Indiana team is where most of his Oklahoma squads spent quite a bit of time.

FINALLY!

Monday, Jan. 22,2007 12:46 a.m.

Down 21-3 in the second quarter of the Indianapolis Colts-New England Patriots AFC Championship game, it looked to many throughout the state of Indiana that it would be another "next year" type of season for Peyton Manning and the gang. "This could be the best moment of my life, or it could be the worst" said IU sophomore Mike Rowe, an Indianapolis native who was rooting for the Colts to advance to the Super Bowl. But late-game heroics from Manning and a late interception by Indianapolis cornerback Marlon Jackson sealed a 38-34 Indianapolis victory and a trip to Miami for Super Bowl XLI.
