I'm hoping UL wins enough games to make the NCAAT that way it boosts up our resume. But I would also find comedy in UL once again thinking they are back on the big stage just to get knocked back down by reality. Their scout board seemed to went into depression mode once Tenn beat their heads in at the Yum. They really talked themselves into believing they were better than us this year and those weird transfer portal rankings meant they finally had a leg up on us LMAO

It is a long way from 86 and 87.
Sure, but it doesn’t mean Kenny Walker, Winston Bennett and Rex Chapman weren’t three of the baddest dudes on the planet then, does it? The amount of time that has passed doesn’t somehow mean it didn’t happen or that somehow none of the IU or UofL stuff mattered at the time?

You totally misunderstood (or perhaps I did). I was saying 86 (UL's last real title) and 87 (IU's last) are a long time ago. No way was I saying that the Cats of that time need no attention. I grew up on the Cats starting in 82, so I love all of those guys.

Indiana can’t shoot so if UofL gets hot they can stay in it. Also Indiana is remarkably poor at rebounding for having such a good front line. I fully expect Indiana to win but Woodson is such a poor coach I could see it being closer than it should be.
IU isn’t great shooting but they are vastly improved from last year. Louaivlle is worse version of Kentucky. Louisville is truly 3s or bust, they have nobody who can create anything consistently and their bigs want to be on the perimeter all game.

Go Cards. My loathing for IU basketball is a gargantuan beast who’s hunger can never be sated.
Agreed.

As for the rest of my thoughts ...

Indiana sucks. My hatred for University of Indiana @Asshall knows no limits and burns white hot as a supernova ... All these millennium since Uofi was relevant.

Which brings me to this thought ....

1987

So suck it Hoosiers. Forever.

Lil brother can win this game by 100 and then proceed to lose every other game by 100 on the schedule, except when they play UNC*** and dUKe.

They can go ahead and win those games ONLY.

I'll give them permission.

You can inform them I said so...

I never feel bad for UL, I hope they get beat ever game they play.
My wife hates mma because she says she always feels sorry for the guy getting beat up. I tell her that guy getting his face caved is actively trying to do the same thing to the other guy. No remorse.

I just dislike IU so much more, maybe it’s because UL has sucked so bad lately that I want them to be better (not good but better) IU is getting cocky again, so a loss to little brother would help the sale of Crown in Louisville and make the turkey in Indiana taste a bit salty from the tears.

Because we play UL, it might benefit us for the Dirty Birds to win, therefore beefing them up in the metrics. Then, we give Stripper U that spanking that we always hand out and we look better come NET time.

Give ‘em this. Not afraid of a tough schedule. Five ranked teams in their OOC schedule.

I've seen a few IU games and they're not that great mostly because of bad coaching. I actually think UL has a very good chance to win this game.
