The No. 21 Hoosiers (13-7, 5-4) fell to the Badgers 72-54 and had one of their worst shooting performances of the season.

Before the Hoosiers' starting lineup is announced, amid a slowly filling Assembly Hall crowd, even before public address announcer Chuck Crabb's voice can greet spectators, a different sound takes control. "Ladies and Gentlemen, it's time to ball now," the voice says. "You're in the Hall now." Finally, as the men's basketball team charges onto Branch McCracken Court, the voice leaves one more reminder -- "Get in the Game."

Game receives second-best TV rating ever

By Alyson Brodsy and David Bauder · Tuesday, Feb. 7,2006 1:15 a.m.

NEW YORK -- The Pittsburgh Steelers' victory against the Seattle Seahawks in the Super Bowl was watched in an average of 45.85 million homes, the second-highest total in television history behind the final episode of "M-A-S-H" in 1983. Pittsburgh's 21-10 victory Sunday got a 41.6 preliminary national rating, Nielsen Media Service said Monday, up slightly from the 41.1 rating last year. The share remained the same at 62. The game was watched by an estimated 141.4 million people in the United States, ABC said, the second-highest total to view a program behind the 144.4 million who tuned to New England's victory over Carolina in the 2004 Super Bowl. That number estimates the total amount of people to watch the game at any point.

First-year coach brings winning history, attitude

By Jake Brown and Jacob Brown · Tuesday, Feb. 7,2006 1:13 a.m.

First-year IU baseball coach Tracy Smith knows how to build a program up from the bottom of a conference. Smith hopes part of that equation includes the addition of two star transfers, the team announced Monday: Tad Reida, a redshirt sophomore from Wichita State University, and Brett Sager, a redshirt freshman from Lousiana State University. "Tad is a 'baseball rat,' and I mean it in a good way," Smith said in a statement. "Brett adds a quality glove for us in the infield."
