On Wednesday, IU struggled mightily against an undermanned Golden Gopher team. However, the Hoosiers were willed over the finish line by Trayce Jackson-Davis who had 25 points and 21 rebounds in a 61-57 win. Indiana was without head coach Mike Woodson who was recovering from COVID. TJD scored the game winning layup with under a minute left on an offensive rebound to break a 57 all tie.
