We all remember jok making all the free throws to win the game but i went back to look at the box score and we were only 5 of 24 from three; Indiana made 10 and still lost the game. In the games since we have been hitting at a much higher percentage; Jok and Bohannon were 2 of 10 against Indiana. Also Williams had 10 points on 5 for 5 shooting; Moss only played 5 minutes. We need Moss and Williams to stay all over Blackmon who shoots a majority of their 3's. Another point is Cook was only 3 of 11 from the field and a couple of those were dunks. If Indiana can turn it over 15-20 times we win the game. We can definitely improve on the numbers from Jok, Bohannon, and Cook and beat them.

Thanks to the OP for the research and posting. So,we had an off game from the field and still won on TOs and FTs. Nice to know!
 
The first 5 or 6 minutes was a layup drill for IU in the first game. Fran sat the starters very quickly, and subs played much better defense and slowly turned the game around. After the start, we pressed and played zone much of the game and it seemed to minimize dribble penetration. Fran should get kudos, but I think IU's coaches also forgot what got them their 17-4 lead. IU has a quickness advantage on the perimeter and a size advantage near the basket, but Tan Tommie had his bigs away from the basket most of the game. I hope he coaches as poorly tomorrow.
