I really wish we would already have MSU and nebraska in the win column. 8-2 would be looking good right now.

Every team in the conference but Michigan would like to have our record. And Michigan’s advantageous schedule is now offset by their condensed schedule due to 4 postponements IMO. Their giant slow freshman center is almost certainly going to struggle on short turnarounds.

The Indiana loss wasn't catastrophic.

I don’t care what AP thinks. Yawn.

Oh yea, good point. Our condensed schedule hurt us when Indiana's roof fell in and it will be nothing compared to what they will face. Anyone know how many guys they normally play?

Did some checking...looks like they play 7 primarily. And one of them is the 7’1” 255 pound freshman that’s a slow plodder. He’s their leading scorer and rebounder.

The loss may not have been catastrophic, but 12 minutes without a field goal was.
