How To Watch Indiana Basketball Sunday Against Maryland

In this story:
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Indiana returns home to face Maryland Sunday afternoon at Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall. The Hoosiers look to get back in the win column after Wednesday's 79-70 loss at Northwestern.
Maryland arrives in Bloomington coming off its best win of the season, defeating No. 17 Illinois 91-70 in Champaign. The Terrapins are off to a strong start in coach Kevin Willard's third season, though they've lost six of their last seven matchups against the Hoosiers.
For an NCAA Tournament bubble team like Indiana, every game is important the rest of the way. But Sunday's home game is one the Hoosiers could really use as they approach a gauntlet of four straight top-25 opponents, beginning Friday at No. 11 Purdue.
