Indiana vs Gonzaga College Basketball Betting Preview
Through the first couple weeks of the season, the vibes at Indiana were positive.
The Hoosiers finally had their point guard that they so desperately needed for years, Mackenzie Mgbako looked ready to put together a monster breakout season, and veterans like Arizona transfer Oumar Ballo and Malik Reneau upped the roster's talent level.
Those early-season positivities may become realities even as the sample size grows, but after a disastrous loss to Louisville, there's more questions than answers right now.
Prized Stanford transfer Kanaan Carlyle is averaging just 5.3 points per game.
The frontcourt fit with Reneau, Mgbako and Ballo can be questionable against smaller, quicker, athletic teams.
Also, the Hoosiers faithful can tell you about Mike Woodson, who doesn't exactly strike confidence in Bloomington.
Indiana was losing to Eastern Illinois at home at halftime and UNC Greensboro stuck around a couple of games later.
And now, the Hoosiers didn't even look like they had interest in being in the Bahamas against Louisville.
I just can't trust Indiana right now, regardless of the talent.
I know Gonzaga played an overtime, grueling game against West Virginia on Wednesday, but they are still are a deep team that features numerous different players who Mark Few can run his offense through.
Ryan Nembhard isn't going to have too many games in which he shoots 1-of-10 and Graham Ike only played 14 minutes.
I trust Few to have his team motivated off a loss more so than Woodson (sorry Indiana fans).
