Thoughts on a 75-63 loss to the Wolverines:
Indiana entered Big Ten play riding high on a 26-game home winning streak — one of the longest in the country. No matter the ranking of the opponent that entered Assembly Hall, the Hoosiers had a way of showing up, knocking down shots and emerging victorious. We saw it against North Carolina in November.
But since conference play began, Indiana’s home-court advantage has dissipated to near non-existence. Indiana came out flat against Nebraska to start Big Ten play and lost. Same thing happened against Wisconsin a few days later. And despite a valiant effort against Purdue on Thursday, it still resulted in a third home loss.
