Indiana begins a stretch of four out of five games on the road when it plays at Michigan at 1:00 p.m. ET on Sunday afternoon. Michigan’s Crisler Center has not always been a friendly environment for the Indiana University men’s basketball team, but the Hoosiers have certainly had their share of memorable moments against the Wolverines in the building. Here are our three favorites: Steve Alford’s game winner in 1987 Bob Knight was so excited about Steve Alford’s game-winner in Ann Arbor that he ran off the floor, fists in the air. In fact, the entire IU team ran off…

Losers of four in a row, it feels like now or never for Indiana. With just four more games remaining on their home court, the Hoosiers need to win five more games to get to .500 in the Big Ten. While a sub .500 mark in the deepest conference in the country might not preclude an NCAA Tournament invite, IU obviously cannot fall much farther.
