The Hoosiers (9-3, 1-1 Big Ten) defeated Chattanooga, but weren’t all that happy about it, in their last outing. IU has shot more 3-pointers lately, but isn’t making many (23-of-87, 26.4% over its last four games). They have shot 61.7% from inside the arc over that stretch. Myles Rice averages 11.0 points per game and scored 11 in the season opener. Otherwise, he has five games with at least 17 points and six games with 6 points or fewer.

The Eagles (10-4), who were voted the second-best team in the Big South preseason poll, have lost road games to Virginia Tech, Louisville and Florida State. Winthrop dictates a disjointed style for opponents and itself. The Eagles get to the free throw line more than anyone in the nation (32.1 attempts per game) but make just 65.3% (319th). The Eagles also commit a lot of fouls (20.6, No. 346), and they force (16.5 per game, No. 7) and commit (14.4, No. 332) plenty of turnovers.
