The 2020 Big Ten tournament was canceled prior to the second round due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Rankings from AP poll

The Hoosiers started off another strong campaign by going 11–1 before dropping back-to-back games in late December 2019 and early January 2020. During the bulk of the conference season, IU was able to win most of their home games (7–3), while stealing a few road games (2–8) to end their final season with an overall record of 20–12 and a conference record of 9–11. Indiana entered the Big Ten tournament as the 11 seed where they faced the 14th-seeded Nebraska Cornhuskers. The first-round matchup ended in an 89–64 IU victory, staging a second-round matchup with 6 seed Penn State. However, on the morning of March 12, 2020, the Big Ten Conference announced that it would be cancelling the remaining tournament games due to the COVID-19 pandemic.^[1] Following suit, that afternoon, the NCAA announced that it was cancelling all winter and spring championships.^[2] This announcement officially, and abruptly, ended the Hoosiers' season, where they were expected to make the NCAA tournament for the first time in 4 years.^[3]

Previous season

Despite getting off to a strong start of 12–2, which included three conference wins, IU struggled mightily down the backstretch of the season. Riddled with injuries and the inability to shoot, the Hoosiers lost 12 of 13 games before turning things around and finishing the regular season with a four-game winning streak. Having put themselves back into the conversation for making the NCAA tournament for the first time in 3 years, the Hoosiers looked to knock off Ohio State in the Big Ten tournament. With a win, many bracketologists had IU safely in the field. However, the Hoosiers fell short and lost to Ohio State, 79–75. IU was deemed one of the Last Four Out in the NCAA tournament, so they earned 1 seed in the NIT, where they advanced to the quarterfinals before losing to Wichita State, 73–63. Thus, the Hoosiers' 119th season ended with an overall record of 19–16 and 8–12 in the Big Ten.
