Fun game
#1 Duke vs. #17 Indiana
A chance to show the country that IU is back, we're a national power, and a threat to win the Big Ten and go deep in the NCAA tournament. And....
...well, we almost did that. We got behind 16-2, showing we aren't comfortable playing this type of game. We fought back and had the lead with 4 minutes left, showing we actually can play with Duke (and thus, any team in the nation). Then, we pretty much stopped scoring, and ended up losing by 8, showing that we got tired and aren't comfortable closing out a game like this against a team like Duke.
So what have we learned? Umm....
On an unrelated note, it was really good to see Mel over Thanksgiving break. She's off in Texas, but visited Mr. and Mrs. Bum for the holiday (it's cheaper than Hawaii, where her parents are). A day of hanging out with the three of them--it doesn't get much better than that.
