By Frank Therber · Monday, March 22,2010 9:58 p.m.

By Zina Kumok · Thursday, March 11,2010 11:20 p.m.

For the entire 2009-2010 season, IU has been behind. Like a lagging runner, the Hoosiers have never been able to catch up to their Big Ten rivals, the teams they must measure up to if they have any hope of returning to glory.

The Hoosiers will be well versed in the Wildcats’ play when they see the team for the second time in such a short span. But there’s one thing IU knows Northwestern won’t change when the two teams play in the Big Ten Tournament’s first round at 5 p.m. Thursday: its volume of 3-point attempts.
