However, the Hoosiers turned up the pressure on defense, holding the Bobcats to three points the rest of the half, while putting up 11 points themselves to take a 49-26 lead into the break.
The Hoosiers maintained their defensive pressure in the third quarter, forcing the Bobcats to shoot 23.5% from the floor in the frame. Indiana took a 69-37 lead into the third quarter and the deficit proved to be too much for Quinnipiac, as the Hoosiers held on for the eventual 92-55 victory.
