Thoughts on an 86-72 loss to the Wolverines:
Indiana started this game 1-of-15, making just one field goal in the first 10:20 of the contest. Tucker DeVries turned the ball over, air-balled a 3-pointer and picked up two fouls in the first 80 seconds of action.
If you’re looking to beat this elite Michigan team this season, that’s not the kind of start that’s going to get it done.
Still, Indiana was able to keep things respectable the rest of the half, and really, the rest of the game. After the Wolverines completely stymied Indiana’s offense, the Hoosiers moved the ball better, found the paint more often, and hit 8 of their last 12 shots in the first half.
