Indiana had another golden opportunity on Thursday to cement its spot in the NCAA Tournament. Instead, it was another opportunity that passed by. And in many ways it was a microcosm of IU's season as a whole -- failed execution. #iubb

Indiana basketball watches another critical opportunity pass by — this time the most costly of all. Why? The all-too-familiar ‘missed execution’ and ‘little things’
Thursday was a microcosm of the entire season for Indiana basketball. Missed opportunities and poor execution. A long 76 hours awaits.

Indiana on life support right now -- down 7, with Oregon going to the line and 3:06 left. Hoosiers scoreless over the last 4:27 and you can feel the offense trying to force the issue over the last few possessions. #iubb

Indiana is +14 in the paint yet only 10-of-23 on layups. Hoosiers leaving quite a bit out there and in a game that will likely come down to one or two possessions, those are obviously extremely costly points. #iubb

- IU just 5-of-14 on layups

- Much better on the glass than 9 days ago
- Minimal shot-creation at the moment from Indiana
- Oregon getting too many clean looks from 3

Never understand the quick trigger to pull a player with 2 fouls. Mike Woodson always plays that game. Mackenzie Mgbako nails a great stepback on one end but picks up an aggressive foul on the other. Oregon closes on a 13-2 run while IU goes 2-of-7 to close the half. #iubb

Brandon Angel entered today with one of the past nine games in double-figures and just 2-of-15 from three in that span.
Has 10 points and 2-of-2 on 3s in seven minutes. We'll see if he's able to keep it up, but huge lift for Oregon to start. #iubb
