Pitt is not what they were last year, but they are a good program from the Big East who was, untril last night, 7-1 with their only loss to a talented Texas team. It may be easy to say that last night's win was the biggest of Crean's tenure, but does it represent a turning point? Is IU now relevant again? Hype says yes, but...
Though Pitt appeared to have better athletes, IU had better basketball players. That was determined by the two different ways the teams reacted to pressure inside the game and the two diffrerent ways the teams shot the ball. I really don't know much about basketball offenses, but IU's weirdo zone offense with the backside floater drifitng into the middle for the mid range stuff was very effective and made for a young team taking shorter shots and building mroe confidence. Pitt was not nearly as cerebral in their approach, and IUs ability to keep pressure on the ball disrupted them severly.
I didn't see it, having gone to the kitchen...
