IU facing test in Puerto Rico (The Courier-Journal)
"It's time for the reality check for the Indiana University men's basketball team. A year ago the Hoosiers won their first two regular-season games and headed to Maui for three games in paradise. A 38-point loss to Notre Dame, a 26-point setback to Saint Joseph's and a two-point nail-biting victory over Division II Chaminade provided IU with a snapshot of what the season would eventually bring." -

"Ole Miss breezed through its first two games of the season, winning by a combined 65 points over Arkansas-Little Rock and Alabama State at Tad Smith Coliseum.

'This is going to be a huge statement game for us,' Polynice said. 'We're trying to put Ole Miss back on the map, show people we're for real and that we're not playing around.'"

"The Rebels as a team are averaging 91 points per game, but both games were against vastly inferior opponents and in the crumbling but cozy confines of the Tad Smith Coliseum. Over the past two seasons, Ole Miss is 6-6 in neutral site games, including a 3-0 record in the San Juan Shootout in 2007 where the Rebels beat out LaSalle, Depaul and Clemson."
