NFL season picks and pans

·

Thirty-one teams. Twenty-one weeks. One trophy. The NFL season is upon us again. With the season still young, many of these teams have high hopes. (To the fans in Chicago, Cleveland, Cincinnati and Dallas: sorry, no glory for you this year). The previous two Super Bowl champions, the St. Louis Rams and Baltimore Ravens, are both back and looking for more championships.

Turnovers turn game to Patriots

·

NEW ORLEANS -- The New England Patriots made this a Super Bowl to remember, for all the right reasons. Adam Vinatieri kicked a 48-yard field goal as time expired, capping a thrilling final two minutes and giving the Patriots a 20-17 upset over the St. Louis Rams on a red, white and blue Sunday.

Hoosiers lose in first round of Big Tens

·

The IU field hockey team went into the 2001 Big Ten Tournament with hopes of pulling an upset of No. 2 seed Ohio State, but the Buckeyes jumped on the freshmen and sophomore laden Hoosier squad with a goal less than five minutes into the match.

Disappointment

·

CHICAGO -- The men's basketball team faced a bittersweet disappointment in the Big Ten tournament March 11. After having won one game in three years at the tournament, the Hoosiers advanced to the championship game. But they lost to Iowa in that game. Barely.

Yeagley gets 500th victory

·

Jerry Yeagley can usually expect to remain dry after a regular season victory over the Butler Bulldogs. It's really no big deal; Butler hasn't even scored a goal against the Hoosiers since 1996.

Defensive changes help Hoosiers

·

Cam Cameron waited until Wednesday to implement a handful of defensive changes for Saturday's match-up with defending Big Ten champion Northwestern. His late change of heart proved to be perfect timing. Perfect as in two interceptions, two fumbles and IU's second win -- a 56-21 thumping of the Wildcats -- of the season in front of 26,213 at Memorial Stadium.

Recker scores winning points

·

INDIANAPOLIS - For those IU fans who aren't fond of Luke Recker, this one wasn't easy to swallow. And it won't be for a long, long time.

Women open against Bearcats

·

Tonight's season opener with Cincinnati at Kuntz Stadium in Indianapolis is important for the women's soccer team for two reasons. First, there's a measure of revenge involved for the Hoosiers who lost last year to the Bearcats on an own-goal in the 54th minute.

Trike race offers excitement, but not seriousness

·

For those who wanted to be Little 500 riders but didn't want to put in the time, there's the Mini 500. The Mini 500 is the tricycle race tonight that brings together the seriousness of the actual race, with the humor of crazy costume designs and team presentations.

Hockey team looks for National Championship

·

Hoosier center Brandon Phillips doesn't scare anyone with his size. At 5-foot-8, 155 pounds, the senior isn't the most imposing player on the ice, and more than a few opponents have watched him during the pre-game skate and anticipated the chance to squash him against the boards. But any opponent who has ever felt the impact of Phillips’ check knows better.

Sophomores add depth to sprints

·

Teams across the country yearn for the day when they have a strong and deep sprint core to help build a successful track squad. But coach Randy Heisler has been living this dream ever since sophomores Rose Richmond and Rachelle Boone signed at IU.

Weekend marred by Big Ten sweeps

·

The IU softball team dropped four games in conference action this past weekend as it played host to No. 13 Michigan and Michigan State. Michigan (27-7, 5-1 Big Ten) swept IU (9-19-1, 0-8) in two games Friday and Saturday. Michigan State (18-21, 3-3) also swept the Hoosiers in their doubleheader Sunday.

The East Lansing Curse

·

Wisconsin snapped the Breslin Center curse. Illinois walked all over it. IU is yet to figure it out. The Badgers ended Michigan State's nation-long, 53-game home winning streak in the final seconds Jan. 12. The Spartans won three in a row in East Lansing before the Fighting Illini squeaked out a two-point win Feb. 12. Now, No. 23 IU has the chance to hand Michigan State its third home loss of the season at 1 p.m. Sunday in the often-rugged, never-nice Breslin Center. One problem -- for IU, the curse is still in place. The Hoosiers (18-8, 10-3 Big Ten) haven't won in the Breslin Center since Feb. 28, 1991, a span of eight losses. IU is 2-9 all-time in the Breslin Center since the arena opened in 1989.

Pitching staff struggles during weekend as Hoosiers win 1, lose 2 against Nittany Lions

·

Penn State ripped apart the Hoosiers' fragile pitching staff in two days at Sembower Field. The final tally of the wreckage during the three-game Big Ten series included 24 allowed runs, eight pitchers and a starter lost to an elbow injury. Two losses sandwiched a 6-3 IU win with bright performances from pitchers senior Nick Otte and freshman Adam Pegg, but the overall weekend magnified the Hoosiers' continuing pitching woes. Starter Brad Edwards was tagged for six earned runs in Friday's 14-4 loss.

Team reloads with talent over summer

·

Both of your captains have graduated. So have five of your point leaders. And it's your first year on the job. This is the predicament of Adam Schuchman, first-year general manager of the IU ice hockey team. The Hoosiers reached the 2002 National semifinals in March, but will be a much different team when Schuchman holds tryouts in September.

Four wrestlers move on to Nationals

·

This weekend is what the Hoosier wrestling team has been working toward all season. Four wrestlers will travel to Albany, NY to participate in the NCAA Championships this Thursday. For one person, it's his last shot at the national title he covets. For another, it's his first championship. For the other two, it's their chance for redemption and to improve on last year's results.

Exorcised

·

LEXINGTON, Ky. -- Chances are, you didn't think this could happen. IU beat defending national champion and top-ranked Duke? No way. You were correct until less than a minute remained in Thursday night's South Regional semifinal in Rupp Arena. But, all those brackets with Duke marching straight to the Final Four took a big hit, thanks to an inspirational comeback that took the Hoosiers the entire second half to complete. It was the comeback that wouldn't quit. On a team that wouldn't fold, either.
