This is an incredibly important year for Mike Woodson and the Indiana basketball team, and things aren’t looking good for the Hoosiers after their blowout loss against Louisville in the Battle 4 Atlantis on Wednesday afternoon. The Hoosiers are currently ranked #14 in the country and expectations are high as many believe they have the best roster in the Big Ten. However, an 89-61 loss to Louisville is not a good sign.

The Hoosiers are currently ranked #14 in the country and expectations are high as many believe they have the best roster in the Big Ten. However, an 89-61 loss to Louisville is not a good sign.
Indiana was able to keep things somewhat close during the first half and they weren’t out of it at the break as Louisville was only up by eight points. However, the Cardinals quickly pulled away in the second half and things got ugly. This is an awful loss for Mike Woodson. Indiana was favored, and they lost by almost 30.
Woodson has received a lot of criticism in recent years because he hasn’t met expectations, and this feels like a make-or-break season for him. It’s obviously early, but getting blown out this badly by a team that won eight games last year is not good.
