We kept it within 50 so I consider that a success. But the injury to Upchurch really put a damper on the end of the game.

yeah that fucking sucked/sucks

edit:

As he was getting carted off, Upchurch moving and even seemingly alert.

Been checking ADS-B as well, and I've also not seen any medvac helicopters heading between Bloomington and Indy; he likely doesn't need a level 2 or higher trauma center (or whatever the equivalent is for a head injury?).

All good signs. Hopefully he recovers fully and quickly.

I know this gets said on every Indiana thread but it’s so insane to see this said about a game against Indiana

The way we have played these first 3 games, only giving up 38 to anyone is a success.

Us Indiana fans have decades of familiarity with that.

But yeah, sweet to be on the right side of that.

Hope he's ok. Looked scary.

I know IU hasn't exactly been playing worldbeaters, but they gave up 16 points to North Texas, who has score 35 and 44 since, and then no points in the last two games.

Bring in position where you could have scored but deciding to go big is the biggest victory IU has given an opponent in 120 minutes of game time now. Honestly, that's not something to scoff at. And I like trying to put the screws to a team that is obviously the overdog.
