BOILED OVER

By Eamonn Brennan · Monday, Jan. 23,2006 12:49 a.m.

IU hoops and Boilermaker football are the main expressions of in-state Hoosier rivalry. Perhaps fewer fans of the diametrically opposed Indiana universities know the way the athletic rivalry is actually gauged: in the form of the AT&T Crimson and Gold Cup, an all-encompassing IU-Purdue sports competition that assigns rankings to each sport in equal value and compiles a score based on the individual sports' yearly results.

Reserve Kline helps team despite criticisms, boos on home court

By Andy Romey · Monday, Jan. 23,2006 12:49 a.m.

In five years at IU, senior forward Sean Kline -- an all-state selection coming out of high school -- has been more of a punch line than the powerhouse he was figured to be. To put it simply, things just haven't gone his way at all. In 2004, his season ended in West Lafayette when he tore his anterior cruciate ligament -- an injury that still bothers him. But at the start of this season, Kline came tearing onto Branch McCracken Court a different man.

Super Bowl teams to be set on Sunday

By Alyson Brodsy and Alan Robinson · Friday, Jan. 20,2006 12:19 a.m.

PITTSBURGH -- Colts quarterback Peyton Manning's arm-waving, finger-pointing and nonstop gesturing at the line of scrimmage seemed especially frantic against the Pittsburgh Steelers, and for good reason.

Super Bowl teams to be set on Sunday

By Alyson Brodsy and Barry Wilner · Friday, Jan. 20,2006 12:18 a.m.

SEATTLE -- The road to the Super Bowl never leads through Carolina. Instead, it leads the Panthers all over the map. Two years ago, the team went to St. Louis and Philadelphia in the playoffs, won both times and made its first NFL championship game appearance. This winter, the stops have been in the Northeast (23-0 over the Giants), the Midwest (29-21 over the Bears) and, now, the Pacific Northwest, where the Seahawks await Sunday in the NFC title game.

IU falls to 3-3 in Big Ten play

By Tim O Brien and Tim O'Brien · Thursday, Jan. 19,2006 9:23 p.m.

Last Thursday, the IU women's basketball team won its third Big Ten game of the year in a game at Northwestern. After the win, IU coach Sharon Versyp gave her team three days off before they would come back and prepare for their game with No. 7 Ohio State. In the early moments of last night's game with the Buckeyes, it seemed that the extra rest had backfired for Versyp and the Hoosiers as Ohio State jumped out of the gates strong, taking an early 12-2 lead.

Hoosiers prepare for 'great challenge' against Buckeyes

By Steve Brennan · Thursday, Jan. 19,2006 1:10 a.m.

For many Big Ten teams, winning conference games on the road is difficult. And winning more away games than home games is almost unheard of. Except for the IU women's basketball team. The Hoosiers (9-7, 3-2 Big Ten) have earned all three of their conference victories on the road. However, their two losses have both occurred in Assembly Hall.

A Bloomington court storming was long overdue. Gray-haired women standing courtside, holding strands of yellow string were no match for more than 17,000 fans after a 62-60 upset of No. 7 Illinois.

By Josh Sacks · Wednesday, Jan. 18,2006 12:37 a.m.

After missing last season to take a sabbatical, IU hockey coach Rich Holdeman is coaching in his 13th and final season behind the bench for the Hoosiers. As the Hoosiers' all-time winningest coach in IU Hockey history, compiling 243 victories and a .685 winning percentage, Holdeman has served as a fixture for the IU hockey program and has developed it into one of the elite Div. II club teams in the nation.

IU readying for strong defense of No. 7 Illini

By Brian Janosch · Tuesday, Jan. 17,2006 1:50 a.m.

The two teams atop the Big Ten's scoring margin category will meet at 7 p.m. tonight in Assembly Hall. No. 13 IU ranks second in the Big Ten averaging 15 points more than their opponents, while No. 7 Illinois sports a conference best 17-point spread. Both teams are 2-1 in conference play with their lone losses coming on the road, but beyond that, the similarities cease. IU maintains its lopsided margin on the offense. The team shoots a Big Ten-best 53 percent from the field and a nationwide-best 47 percent from three. They average 80 points a game and have only been held below 70 points twice, both of which were losses.

Colts' wild ride ends wide right

By Cordell Eddings and Cordell M. Eddings · Tuesday, Jan. 17,2006 1:49 a.m.

INDIANAPOLIS -- At 5 p.m., the jersey came off. The emotional tornado that had been the Colts' season dwindled down to deafening silence in the locker room. The eye of the storm culminated in one corner of the room. While disappointed Colts' players dressed to go home, kicker Mike Vanderjagt sat facing his locker, uniform still on, head buried in his hands, tears in his eyes, surrounded by the first wave of prodding cold microphones and tape recorders.
