Lots of talk about IU's energy and effort in the first half against Morehead State. All fair.

This is so far an exaggerated case of a smaller team running chuck-and-chase offense knowing IU doesn't clear long rebounds well or hit 3s. Morehead State is not a particularly lethal team behind the arc, but they're firing 3s knowing they count more against this team. #iubb
