Thoughts on an 81-60 loss to the Spartans:
It’s one thing to go on the road and lose to this strong Michigan State squad.
But for the first time this season, Indiana didn’t just lose. Because as Michigan State pulled away in the final 10 minutes of the contest, the Hoosiers’ will looked broken. They appeared to give up.
The game was all knotted up at 53 after a thunderous Lamar Wilkerson dunk in transition with 11:19 to play. The Hoosiers kept pace, as their 3-point shooting so far had been traveling.
