South Carolina will be the only visit by a nonconference Power Five school to Indiana this season.
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – When this writer was younger, he was obsessed with fun facts from encyclopedias. These days, you can get your fix for that on Wikipedia.
In other words, Indiana’s peak nonconference game isn’t a very impressive height. Not compared to other seasons. Maybe another challenge series needs to be created? With Big Ten being a FOX-oriented league, a challenge series with another FOX-oriented property – the Big 12 – would be enticing. “You can put him in situations if you need a mid-range two, he’s been able to make shots. He’s finishing at the rim. I like everything about what he’s done from an offensive standpoint,” Indiana coach Mike Woodson said Friday.
This will be interesting to watch, as part of the reason Indiana hasn’t sent teams to the line is inferior caliber of competition and a few possessions where Indiana defenders didn’t challenge shots. However, none of that means Woodson is satisfied with the Hoosiers’ defensive consistency. Eastern Illinois shot 59.3% against Indiana in the first half before the Hoosiers clamped down with 16.7% stopping power after halftime.
