Indiana Basketball: End of season buy or sell for Hoosiers
By Adam Childs
The Indiana basketball team has six games left before the Big Ten Tournament and then hopefully a postseason berth. We take a look at some buy or sell scenarios for the Hoosiers.
The season is quickly coming to an end as the Hoosiers continue to fight for an NCAA berth. Currently, the Hoosiers are sitting on the bubble but have a bunch of chances the rest of the way to get big wins and solidify their spot in the field.
Before we get to the end of the season we take a look at some scenarios for the Hoosiers and if you should buy or sell them.
Indiana will win another road game
SELL
The Hoosiers have not been good on the road this year, winning just one true road game and that was at Nebraska. The Cornhuskers are currently one of the worst teams in the Big Ten, so winning in Lincoln is not something to brag about.
Indiana plays three more road games to end the year. They travel to Minnesota, Purdue, and Illinois. All three are winnable games, but the Hoosiers haven’t shown any reason to believe in them to win a true road game.
Minnesota and Purdue are completely different teams at home and the Hoosiers have already lost to the Boilermakers at home. It doesn’t give a lot of confidence to fans that they can win in Mackey. Illinois has been very good most of the year and are also extremely tough at home. All of this adds up to the Hoosiers going 0-3 the rest of the way on the road.
