Because of technical difficulties (a slow internet connection) I'm just posting my first blog installment. With 5:31 to play, IU is up 25-22 Indiana is playing much better today, night and day in some respects from Friday. The Hoosiers have energy. They're playing zone almost exclusively but it's much more active. They're still giving up the easy baskets at the baseline but they do seem to be defending...

IU played good defense and Cam Long banked in a 3-pointer at the shot clock expired with 5.4 seconds to play Mason then fouled Rivers on the inbounds with 2.9 seconds remaining, and Rivers made the first and missed the second on purpose. There was a scramble for the rebound, Mason got it and Hulls fouled a player with 0.6 seconds remaining. He missed the first and made the second to make it 69-66....

Back and forth they go. Since I talked about free throws being important, IU has made 3 of 4. Rivers hit two and Creek hit one of two. Both teams are in the double bonus. It continues to be very, very physical.

The Hoosiers continue to battle. In the last few minutes, Watford hit a 15 footer, and after Jones missed a tough driving shot to the basket, Bobby Capobianco got the rebound and put it back in. He was fouled on the play and made the free throw. Watford also hit a tough, leaning 6-footer inside with 8:05 to play to give the Hoosiers the 56-53 lead. George Mason will have a 1-and-1 when play resumes....

It didn't take long for this to go the other way. At 36-30, Mason went on a 9-2 run to lead 39-38. IU went back up 43-41 on a 3-pointer by Verdell Jones from the right wing. Mason then led 47-43 before Jordan Hulls hit a 3-pointer from the top The interesting thing is the officiating. Like I thought it my blog earlier in the day, the officials aren't calling anything. I say that, and in the last 2...

Photo by ohad* . Leaves have fallen and Thanksgiving is right around the corner. You know what that means -- turkey! Also, it's time to get back to the hardwood. Welcome to the first edition of The Hi-Lo, DCist's new roundup of the week that was in DMV college hoops.

I loathe economists. The discipline is a weird game where words have to be learned so those in the know can talk about events beyond the reach of “models”. I listen to one economics podcast from George Mason University each week in order to keep myself awake. When I listen to the analyses, my adrenaline [...]

EVANSVILLE, Ind. -- This was a largely dreadful performance by Butler's Bulldogs even before they were nearly shot down by a Colt .45. That's Colt Ryan, of course. Ryan scored 12 points in the final 60 seconds to trim Butler's 13-point lead to two. All that did, though, was to cap an ugly 39 minutes with a stimulating finish. Butler might stay No. 10 in the coaches' poll and No. 11 by The Associated...
