Indiana Hoosiers basketball narrowly survives a major scare against Incarnate Word, with the offense vanishing in the second half after a dominant start. Jacob Goins and Brian Smith break down why Darian DeVries’ squad, once hot from three-point range, suddenly turned ice cold, managing just 5-of-24 from deep and nearly squandering a double-digit halftime lead inside Assembly Hall.

Key topics include the impact of Lamar Wilkerson’s early foul trouble, Sam Alexis’ inside presence with 16 points, and the Hoosiers’ alarming struggles against zone defense. The hosts question whether Indiana has enough playmakers and depth to overcome similar adversity, highlight Conor Enright’s gritty defensive effort, and examine what needs to change before Big Ten play begins—including more effective rotations and improved three-point shooting. Can Indiana fix its offensive woes and turn close calls into convincing wins as tougher competition looms?
