Despite the loss earlier in the season, several Hoosiers said they’re not the same team they were when Wisconsin badgered IU 62-49 in Madison, Wis., a couple weeks ago.

Super voters

·

Voters are the ones who decide elections. Sort of. As anyone with a general knowledge of American politics knows, some of the biggest decisions we make aren’t true democratic votes.
