CHICAGO -- The Hoosiers are hurting at the half, down, 40-29, to Xavier. B.J. Raymond hit a 15-footer at the horn to finish the scoring in the first half. With two second left, Indiana finally passed the ball in to D.J. White on the blocks, but he was called for an offensive foul, his third. He joins Gordon with three, and that could be a problem the entire second half.

After Gordon went out, IU struggled a bit. They scored on their first two possessions, but only scored twice after that. Their offense looks a lot like last night's -- pass the ball around the perimeter and hope a guard hits a shot. The problem is that Gordon isn't there to take the shot.

We were just entertained by the Shamrox Girls dance team. IU fans didn't seem too entertained.

Raymond leads Xavier with 12 points on 5-of-7 shooting, including 2-of-4 from long range. Josh Duncan and Drew Lavender have six each, and Lavender has six assists.

White is Indiana's leading scorer with 10, all of which he created for himself. He also has seven boards. Gordon has four on 1-of-6 shooting. Burrell really harassed him into a frustrating half. Jamarcus Ellis has six points for the Hoosiers and Armon Bassett has five.
