Indiana has found ways to win this year with ball security and energy.  On this night against Nebraska, Indiana was sorely lacking in both.  Indiana has changed its turnover prone reputation from last year, cutting about 2 turnovers per game off its average.  Tonight IU tied its highest turnover total on the season with 19.  While the Hoosiers no doubt brought energy on the defensive end, the Cornhuskers were able to regularly chase down offensive rebounds to create second opportunities.  It added up to a 66-57 Nebraska win as the Hoosiers’ 4 game winning streak is snapped.  IU hosts Ohio…

When a team pulls out a tight game with a late game winning basket it is usually the shooter that gets all of the attention.  In yesterday’s 84-82 Indiana victory over Iowa, it was Freddie McSwain that hit what would become the game winner.  But it was the pass that set him up for that shot that deserves all of the fanfare on this day. Devonte Green has experience with being in the position to make a big last minute pass for a potential game changing basket.  Except that the last time it happened, it didn’t go well for the…
