The No. 14 Indiana Hoosiers (8-2) nearly overcame a 19-point deficit against the No. 10 Arizona Wildcats on Saturday night, but it was too little, too late for the Hoosiers as they fell to the Wildcats 89-75 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. The Wildcats were led by star forward Azuolas Tubelis who scored 21 points on 9-of-16 shooting and added seven rebounds in 27 minutes. The Hoosiers were led by senior point guard Xavier Johnson's 11-point, 11-assist double-double in 26 minutes. Sixth-year forward Race Thompson splashed four 3-pointers to aid in his team-high 16 points and nine rebounds. Nate Dickinson brings Jacob Rude on to recap the second loss in the last two weeks for Indiana to start off Locked On Big 10.


In other Big Ten action, The Penn State Nittany Lions (7-3, 1-1 Big Ten) notched their first road Big Ten win against a top-20 team since beating No. 16 Michigan State in 2020 with a 74-59 win over No. 17 Illinois (7-3, 0-2 Big Ten) on Saturday. Andrew Funk and Myles Dread combined for 11 3-pointers to lead the Nittany Lions to victory. Funk and Jalen Pickett led all scorers with 20 points each, Seth Lundy added 16 and Dread had 15. Penn State shot 50% from long distance overall and hit 6 of 9 3s in the first half. Funk and Dread have each made at least five 3s in a game this season, with the first time being in a two-point loss to Virginia Tech in November. The difference this time was Penn State limited itself to nine turnovers, instead of 14 against the Hokies, and limited the Illini to 12 points off turnovers. Zach Seyko from Locked On Nittany Lions comes on to recap the biggest win of the season for Penn State basketball so far this season as part of the Locked On Podcast Network.
