December 2nd likely the date IU knows fate

Circle your calanders for Sunday, December 2nd - That will be the date the final BCS polls are revealed and the day the Hoosiers are likely to learn their bowl fate.On an unrelated note - Is it an advantage for the Big Ten to be done with their regular season before basically every other power conference?

Quick hit Friday

Hey everybody, Sorry for the delay on this score, I've been riding my bike outside the greater (okay not really) Lafayette/Dayton area this afternoon (It's cold up here, folks). Anyway, the Hoosiers defeated the Wichita State Shockers (no comments on that nickname please) 64-54 to get to 4-1.

A not so happy Turkey Day in the Virgin Islands

No, I didn't get to go to the Caribbean on the company budget. But I watched IU lose by two to Wake Forest today online - their first loss of the season - and there are a few things that stood out. 1) Turnovers were down, as IU committed only 11 to Wake's 25.

Thankfully for the Hoosiers, former UNC-Wilmington guard Brett Blizzard has long graduated. In the 2002 NCAA tournament, Blizzard scored 29 points on all-Big Ten defender Dane Fife. "Blizzard is unbelievable," former Indiana coach Mike Davis said after the Hoosiers' 76-67 victory.

Everyone by now knows the Hoosiers are going bowling. The only question left is where. It appears the Hoosiers will get an invitation from one of two bowls, the Insight.com Bowl in Tempe, Ariz.
