Indiana Basketball Delivers First Big Win Of The Season Right To Sean Miller And Xavier's Front Door: Rapid Reactions

Back in my day kids were allowed to play basketball, apparently not anymore. The refs tonight were soft as a newborn baby's ass, but technical fouls were nowhere near the Hoosiers biggest problem.

- The team came out playing with tight buttholes. Not like they want to win, but like they don't want to lose. First big game, happens.

- HIT YOUR FREE THROWS !!!!!!!!!!

- If shots aren't falling, TJD and Xavier Johnson need to forget about the rest of the team and go right down the lane on the opponent. That was the team. 

- TJD is good on both sides of the ball. 

- Watching Xavier Johnson is a roller coaster of emotion.

- Miller Kopp isn't hitting all his shots. Okay, par for the course, but a 5th year senior shouldn't be seeing playing time if he can't play defense whatsoever. 

- Xavier's alternate Duke Blue jerseys are gross. The other ones are better.

- Can't count on a freshman like JHS to come into a game like this and play lights out, but he showed glimpses of having great game. There was a loose ball it looked like he could have dove for but decided not to, and if that's the case then Woody won't be too happy.

- I'm loving watching #5 Malik Reneau. Different big man game than TJD, but so smart for a freshman.

- Indiana got the win on the road. Closing out was as difficult as possible, but this is a W a lot of Hoosier teams in the past couldn't have finished. I'll take it. Next big test is #1 UNC in Assembly Hall (I'm bricked up.)

- Sean Miller doesn't look like Archie's much bigger brother, he looks like Papa John's scumbag father. Basketball, Cheating, and Pizza. Sean Miller loves them all. 

Go Hoosiers.
