I would think that this would tie the school record on points in a game with only 8 attempts with Keisei last year against Boston College.

HOLY CRAP, I didn't even realize that about Brice tonight. I just know I said "Brice is nice" throughout the game!!! LOL

Just finally looked at the boxscore, still coming off of a high from watching that thing of beauty....

Check out Indiana's +/- for Ware & X

Kel'el Ware -29

Xavier Johnson -31

Who schedules a wedding during March Madness!?!?!?

It's madness... to schedule it during the 12 to 15 weekends in the fall, now it can't be the 18 weeks to start the calendar. That's a whole damn lot of weddings in the remaining approx. 20 weekends of the year !!

It should not go unnoticed that during our 17-0 run we were playing suffocating defense.

At no point did we have a defensive breakdown.

Absolutely brilliant coaching by HCFH!

HCFH stayed with the hot hands in Bryce and KT.

Why didn’t we go to the rim much in this game, because we didn’t have to. 
When did we go to the rim, in the second half when we are up by 20 and IU was standing flat footed guarding against the 3.

We opportunistically would run and then walk the ball up the court. We burned clock in the second half while still scoring 43.

We have broken the Hoosiers.

After the game, and as it was ending we acted like this was just step one. There was barely any celebration. This looked like a team on a mission.

JA, JG, RM did some serious work on boards. 
 

Those whole weekend has been set up for us to go to the Championship and broken exactly how I wanted it to break.

I imagine there's a reason why you don't personally know anybody who schedules a wedding during March Madness... Those aren't friends.

The only acceptable solution...

Gather each of the 68 couples who scheduled a wedding in March. Pair each of them into a bracket. They then battle other for the right to dance. The winning couple is the only one that deserves to invite their friends and family for a parade and celebrate.

It's the only way.

It doesn't hurt that I already loved Japan, the Japanese ppl and anime fwiw, but I love the huge following KT has gathered, these Japanese fans are so passionate and it's so wholesome. Hell yeah

Plus, just the fact that like, 2/3 of them made the long flight FROM JAPAN, that's insane unparalleled commitment as a fan. Big love.

I can't help myself, I get triggered anytime husker fans use the abbrev. for 'head coach __' with HCFH or whatever... It invokes the name of frost in my head every time. Seems like he was the main one I only ever saw with that abbreviation.

It is what it is, isn't your fault. But I get Nam flashbacks when I see HC_ _

Hoops are fairly new territory for them, and they tend to bring massive passion into something new they like. We need a Korean player next.  Then you can get some *really* crazy fans!

Didn't realize Bryce was sick last night.  Maybe we actually should hope that it speads...kidding

KSU fans used to use the abbreviation for Bill Snyder as in HCBS, back in the day.

Never really in doubt:

I was stationed in Korea when the World Cup was held there jointly with Japan. Those fans are INSANE!

On a loosely related topic, in Korea more women attend sporting events than men.

No matter what you think about Trevor Baur you should watch his youtube video's about his time playing baseball in Japan during the 2023 season.

At an Air Force detachment the 607th combat communications squadron at Camp Humphreys (The Hump) in a city call Anjeong-ri about 40 miles directly south of Seoul. Was there for a year when I was 20. Had a blast Would love to make it back there some day to visit.

One of the best Asian countries I've been to. And very hospitable people.

Lol yeah. I'm a huge soccer fan, and I'm jealous of spurs fans as an arsenal fan for having a player like son

humphries! i was tucked away in Yong-in going native for 15 mos. Would've killed to have a Burger King, but at least we hadminimal adult supervision and the single biggest bar in the ROK, so fun was always right around the corner.
