Indiana Hoosiers suffer a shocking 73-64 defeat to Minnesota Golden Gophers in their Big Ten opener, ending a nine-game win streak vs Minnesota and raising questions about the team’s readiness under new head coach Darian DeVries. Can Indiana bounce back from this embarrassing loss, or are deeper issues with coaching and toughness threatening their season?

Jacob Goins breaks down Indiana’s worst offensive performance of the year, calling out poor execution, rebounding woes (outrebounded 40-25), and a lack of leadership on the court. Highlights include Tayton Conerway’s fast start, Sam Alexis’s assertiveness, and brutal honesty on Tucker DeVries’s off night. Key topics cover questionable officiating, the challenge of Big Ten play, and how this defeat could impact Indiana’s momentum ahead of their matchup with Louisville.
