Game #9 vs Indiana

I'm gonna start this thread specifically in order to lay the foundation for blaming Chicat if we lose and to start his ears a'burnin' if he deigns to lurk amongst us great unwashed.

I don’t like how we are playing.

Interestingly, Indiana’s season has gone much the way ours has. So I imagine some dude on an Indiana message board just started his game thread post the same way.

I’m really hoping we have a home atmosphere in Vegas and kick some ass. We need to reassert our dominance. No more playing not to lose.

I'm currently at the MGM in Las Vegas. I have seen more IU fans than AZ fans thus far. Hopefully, the cavalry arrives tomorrow.

NOPE - aint gonna happen. YOU GET THE BLAME because you haven't supplied any game information.

If I miss the game because I don't have the faintest idea of when it is ITS ALL YOUR FAULT and you get the blame for EVERYTHING that goes wrong.

How am supposed to know when to put on my lucky jock strap?

We seem to play well in neutral site games. I’m banking on that happening tonight vs. IU.

Go Cats!

My Two Cents: 10 Things To Know About Indiana's Game With Arizona in Las Vegas
First off, let's get the game time right for Indiana and Arizona on Saturday night. It starts at 7:30 p.m. Eastern Time. Here's that fact and many more on the big neutral court showdown in Las Vegas.

The KenPom projection is Indiana by one with a 54 percent chance of victory for the Hoosiers. The Sagarin numbers like Indiana by three.

Interesting that Vegas has us favored while the metrics would have IU favored. Will be interesting to see this one play out and see who was right

Pfft. You put it on as soon as you get out of bed the morning of the game. But if you went to bed after midnight you have to be already wearing it. Also, by not posting game info it accelerates the ramp up in anxiety inherent in not knowing if you're gonna miss part of the game due to doing time zone calculations wrong.

But none of that really matters because by starting the thread the day before I called dibs on blaming Chicat and that motherfucker is pinned now with the curse of Indiana. And we should bag on him mercilessly and relentlessly until he crawls out, sees his shadow and redeems himself.

I'm nervous because of how we've been playing as of late. Hope the 97 unis bring back the Maui magic.

Walking around the MGM it's easily 3 or 4 to 1 Indiana vs AZ fans. I'm shocked.
