[382] IU-Michigan State Postgame Show: Winning Effort Undermined by More Miserable Shooting

Published: Feb. 4, 2018, 5:29 a.m.

b"On Saturday evening, Indiana 63-60 to Michigan State in a game that was night-and-day different from the game up in East Lansing ... except for the final result. After the game, our crew broke it all down on The Assembly Call IU Postgame Show.

Among the topics discussed:

-- Why Indiana's tenacity, hustle, and toughness are worth being proud of ... even in a loss.
-- How Juwan Morgan bounced back from the first Michigan State game, and a rough first half, to deliver one of the signature performances of his career in the second half.
-- The importance of Freddie McSwain rising to the occasion and leading Indiana's assault on the glass.
-- The improbable but (probably) true fact that Indiana might just have won this game if Zach McRoberts hadn't gotten into foul trouble.
-- What it means that Devonte Green had six more assists without a turnover, while Indiana's senior guards couldn't shoot and couldn't create offense for teammates.
-- Some really interesting Romeo Langford talk -- since our guest host tonight was Zach McCrite, who calls Romeo's New Albany games.

We also point out a few meaningful moments you may have missed, go inside the numbers, and hand out our game balls. All of that, and more, on this edition of The Assembly Call."
