Immediate Post Game Reaction: IU vs. Gardner-Webb

Rapid Reactions:
I will start off by informing you that I was not able to give my full attention to the game as it was played on Monday night which happens to be the same night as my bowling league. I actually bowl in the Purdue staff league (my wife works at Purdue) with a Kentucky fan, so please don’t stop reading my post game reactions, but I did watch the game on BTN live stream without the sound.

From what I saw, IU started out fast and blitzed Gardner-Webb from the start. Our offense was clicking and the defense started off locking down all of their shooters. One thing I noticed was Cody Zeller and Victor Oladipo picked up where they left off at in the Savannah State game. Both players showed some tenacity and hustle out there tonight.

Also, Verdell Jones III looked like the Verdell Jones III of last year, inconsistent! I am sorry for this short and non-informative reaction, but IU kicked some butt and I bowled a 210.

Next game: November 27 vs. Butler
