"ABOUT INDIANA
The Hoosiers welcome the Scarlet Knights to Assembly Hall with a 10-12 overall mark and 3-6 record in Big Ten play. Indiana has won two-straight with 69-65 win at Michigan State last Saturday and a 69-55 home win over Wisconsin on Wednesday night."

A must game, IMO, to get rid of the bad taste of the past few games (losses)

 

[wngarbarini]

Why can’t this team make simple uncontested layups?

 

[wngarbarini]

Rollins has a wide open teammate on her left for an easy layup and she commits a charge. Can’t watch this anymore.

 

[Abro1975]

Last month RU would have blown this Indy team off the court. They've lost their confidence shooting, other than Scaife, and missed layups and turnovers continue to plague this team. Yet only trialing by a few with a couple minutes left in the half.

 

[bac2therac]

this team is playing the same game every game...its like a continuation....i am sorry but this not a NCAA team, I have not seen that level of play really even that Minnesota game was unimpressive despite the win.

 

[Abro1975]

With Scaife on the bench with 2 fouls, the team is lacking offense and confidence. now down by 7 w 1:30 left in half

 

[bac2therac]

wow this unwatchable....Indiana now up by 7...

 

[bac2therac]

Ponytail for 3...Indiana by 8.....sorry this is bad basketball by RU and bad coaching by CVS. There is absolutely no confidence or purpose on the court.

 

[bac2therac]

halftime Indiana 36 Rutgers 29

bettter get their act together and win this one because NCAA is going to be toast if they do not

 

[RUJMM78]

Without Scaife the offense is as horrendous as last season.The inability to make layups is inexcusable but still happens almost every game.

 

[TRU2RU]

It is good to see all the posters who were invisible when this team was on a winning streak reappear when things get rocky...typical self loathing know it alls!

 

[RU MAN]

What's upsetting in watching this team is that Stringer hasn't learned a damn thing about improving her offense. We all know she's a defensive genius but one would think she would have learned by now how to get the most out of her players not named Scaife. I love Carey's game and I don't know why she ends up so far away from the basket all the time.

 

[Abro1975]

Scaife will play a lot more in the 2nd half, and that should help a lot. Making some foul shots might help as well, awful foul shooting in first half

 

[RUJMM78]

Indiana can't handle full court press.Rutgers leads 47-43 third quarter.Sanders on a hot streak.

 

[RU MAN]

Keep it up women. I don't know why C Viv. doesn't start games like this because they always seem to come out flat. The 55 always seems to energize the offense.

this team needs to come out with purpose...too many times they are just coming out and not doing anything or running anything. Have to come out an edge especially on the road

 

[RUJMM78]

54-51 Indiana .Rutgers can't score .Only 2 minutes remaining.

 

[bac2therac]

54-51 Indiana .Rutgers can't score .Only 2 minutes remaining.

2 points all half...what are the excuses for that

 

[RUJMM78]

Indiana winning the game at the foul line along with Rutgers missing in action on offense.Scaife vey passive wanting the ball down the stretch.

 

[bac2therac]

awful foul by Rollins..why

 

[RUChoppin]

39% of Indiana's points were from the line?

 

[Abro1975]

Wow, a few close losses has now turned into a possible season destroyer with 4 straight , close losses. No composure, especially at crunch time. Not sure what to think anymore.

 

[bac2therac]

39% of Indiana's points were from the line?

yes...but the refs were not the factor here...RU was up 47-40...they literally choked the game away with horrific stupid plays on offense..when you score only one fg in 10 minutes, you have only yourself to blame...and RU actually shot well for the game...48% I think

 

[RUChoppin]

I don't watch the game. I can't watch women's basketball with the way the officiating is. I turned it on to watch Buss(?) grab our players arm into her stomach so that we got called for a foul. Turned it back off after that.

 

[biazza38]

This season sums up the season of every good team we have that gets off to a good start
