BLOOMINGTON, Ind. -- OG Anunoby gave No. 16 Indiana a jolt of energy, and the Hoosiers got themselves back in sync.On a night when Anunoby had 19 points and nine rebounds, three of his teammates also reached double figures to help Indiana rout Delaware State 103-56 on Monday.The other day he played like it was his first game back a couple of times. Tonight, he played like hes capable of, Hoosiers coach Tom Crean said.By avoiding a second straight loss, the Hoosiers (9-2) extended their home winning streak to 25 games -- tied for the fifth-longest in school history.The Hoosiers (9-2) know how much they need Anunoby.When he was ill at IPFW, he was held scoreless in Indianas first loss of the season.A healthier Anunoby helped Indiana win its next two, including a nine-point upset of No. 3 North Carolina.But he injured his ankle late in that game, missed the next three and in his return Saturday wound up with his second-lowest point total (seven) of the season in another loss.If Anunoby stays healthy and plays with the passion and precision he did against the Hornets (3-10), the Hoosiers know they will be tough to beat.We knew it would be hard without OG, just because of everything he brings on the defensive end and the guys he can guard and because of his versatility on offense, teammate Robert Johnson said after finishing with 16 points, seven rebounds and six assists.James Blackmon Jr. had 18 points and Thomas Bryant scored 14 for Indiana.Anunoby, meanwhile, went 9 of 11 from the field, was 1 of 3 on 3-pointers, had a career-high four blocks, and added two steals and two assists.DeVaughn Mallory led Delaware State with 14 points and Kobe Gantz had 13, but the Hornets never had much of a chance. They have lost five of six.Less than 6 minutes into the game, Indiana already had a 20-10 edge. By halftime it was 54-30, and the Hoosiers extended the margin to 92-42 late in the game.We ran into one of them Hoosier buzzsaws tonight, Delaware State coach Keith Walker said. After halftime, I promised the team they couldnt duplicate that first-half shooting percentage. They went from 71 percent and then we did cut it down. It went to 67.BIG PICTUREDelaware State: The Hornets, who won at St. Johns in November, were no match for the defending Big Ten champs. They are 0-33 against opponents from the Big Ten and a long way from being competitive with college basketballs big boys.Indiana: Showed again it can rebound in style against an inferior opponent at Assembly Hall. Perhaps the most impressive part of the night was the offense. The Big Tens top scoring team has put up 100 or more points four times this season.UPON FURTHER REVIEWPerhaps the lopsided nature of the game got the best of the referees, too. After Indiana called a 30-second timeout with 6 minutes to go and another stoppage 11 seconds later, the officials started to put the ball in play. Thats when longtime Hoosiers public address announcer Chuck Crabb alerted the officials to a miscue and stopped play by saying, Timeout. Thats a television timeout.ON THE ROADDelaware State has played a daunting schedule. Following two home games to open the season, the Hornets hit the road for eight consecutive games. They returned home Dec. 10 for one game, then embarked on a six-game road trip that began in Binghamton, New York, before going to Bloomington, Iowa City and Honolulu. The Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference didnt give them a break, either. Theyll open with two more road games to start league play. Their next home game is Jan. 14 against Hampton.UP NEXTDelaware State: Plays at Iowa on Thursday, the third stop on its six-game road trip.Indiana: Puts its home winning streak on the line again Thursday against Austin Peay.---More AP college basketball: www.collegebasketball.ap.org and https://twitter.com/AP-Top25 .

HOLLYWOOD, Fla. -- Former NFL Alumni Association President George Martin told a concussion conference Friday the injury is a scourge in contact sports with long-term consequences still widely underestimated.We need to take off the veil, Martin said. Ive attended far too many funerals lately for teammates and colleagues who have unfortunately succumbed to CTE.Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy is a progressive degenerative disease of the brain found in athletes and others with a history of repetitive brain trauma, including concussions.Martin was the keynote speaker at the Ultimate Concussion Conference, a gathering of experts and policymakers in sports administration, law, education and health, including neuroscience and neuropsychology. About 80 people were expected for the three-day event.I always felt there was a lack of communication between disciplines, so I said, `Lets start a meeting that does this, said co-organizer Dr. Don Teig, an expert in sports vision from Ridgefield, Connecticut. A lot of players are so thrilled were doing this, because the subject had been pushed aside and buried. My goal was not to bury it anymore, and build it into something that lets people who are looking to come up with answers share their ideas.The first speaker was Martin, who described the toll he has seen concussions take. Martin played defensive end for the New York Giants from 1975 to 1988.The helmet I wore for the first five years of my career will tell you everything you need to know about concussions in the NFL, he said. If you looked at that helmet, you would be aghast. On the front there are nothing but scars, deep and penetrating. Its absolutely covereed with them.ddddddddddddMartin said helmets today are much improved, and said he has no criticism of the leagues recent response to concerns about CTE.But Martin said the disease has many players from his era worrying about their health.When I walk into the hospital room of a colleague who is a shell of his former self, I ask myself, is this a prelude to the future for me? he said. You dont know how frightening that question is.Dr. Michael Bergeron, president of Youth Sports of the Americas, told the conference there has been little improvement in understanding concussion risk because, ironically, theres so much data to absorb. Supercomputer software will help process information in the years to come, Bergeron predicted.Its too much for a human being to do, he said. We have to rely on software that can pull it together in an intelligent way. This will help prediction models and prevention.New findings will be presented Saturday by Dr. Tad Seifert, a Louisville neurologist involved in a study of boxers and mixed martial artists. He said the study found headaches increase with the incidence of concussion -- not a surprise, but something previously unsubstantiated.It could be a marker to follow over the arc of an athletes career in helping to identify those who become high-risk and most susceptible to long-term problems, he said.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and http://twitter.com/AP-NFL---Follow Steven Wine on Twitter: http://twitter.com/Steve-Wine.
