Rutgers overcame a 16-point Hoosier lead to take over the second half. Their guard, Corey Greer, finished with 28 points. This kid has a really tough jump shot off the dribble that is basically indefensible. He had a monster jam toward the end of the game when he split two Hoosier defenders. Indiana reminds me a bit of the Matta-coached Buckeye teams of the past - lots of good athletes, none of whom can put the ball in the basket. The Hoosiers had an abysmal shooting game and a lot of turnovers. Sound familiar? Rutgers was a 14-seed in the Big Ten tournament. The Hoosiers were a 6-seed. Having lived in Indiana for 13 years, I know how seriously the Hoosier fans take their basketball. They will not be happy with the Hoosiers sitting home in March again.
