IU-NW Postgame Show: Al and Armaan Close Out Ugly But Necessary Win

On Wednesday night, Indiana overcame a horrible start and 38 minutes of sluggish offense to find a way to win a double-OT battle against Northwestern. When someone needed to step up late, Al and Armaan made the plays (and free throws) needed for victory.

After the game, our crew broke it all down on The Assembly Call IU Postgame Show.

On the mics: Chad, Ryan, and IU Artifacts

Among the topics discussed:

— Why Trayce struggled (again)
— Jerome's Big Shot
— The heroics of Al and Armaan
— Why the continued slow starts are unacceptable and need to change
— What this win means in the larger context of the season
— And much more

We also point out a few meaningful moments you may have missed, go inside the numbers, and hand out our game balls. All of that, and more, on this edition of The Assembly Call.
