Things Indiana does poorly:
- Nothing, really.
The only stat they have that I would call a poor ranking in is # 3-PT attempts and makes (4.4/game). Since they shoot it well, I'd call that a choice to shoot it less from the arc rather than something they do poorly. If you are playing a team that lets you into the paint, why take a lot of 3s?
The stats tell me this is a skilled, disciplined team. This will be a challenge for Coach P from a game-plan standpoint, I think. Possibly play them similarly to the way we played Missouri, and hope our shots fall.
Ciara having such a good game yesterday could play well in our favor, if they try to focus on shutting her down. I have faith in our guards to pick up the slack in that scenario.

I will say that turnovers might be the biggest weakness we can exploit. Indy is:
16.9 Turnovers committed
15.73 Turnovers forced
6.0 steals / game
-1.18 TO margin
That's something we can focus on to frustrate their offense. And something we would be doing anyway.

So good to see Lamb break out of that shooting slump. Hopefully it carries on because they're going to need her.

34-26 at the Half.
Yotes are shooting a little better in all three categories, and have 6 3-pointers already. The coaches must have seen something in scouting to send so many shots from the arc. Yotes out-rebounding 23-18 including 6-2 offensive rebounds, netting 10-0 2nd chance points. big disparity.

Got more turnovers than made field goals. This is painful to watch.

Indiana takes the lead back with 3:20 left in the 3rd Q
Yotes in the bonus now. I hope they can take advantage.
