The good news: I won't need to waste a sick day on either of the first round tournament days.

OneTime3 · Jan 17, 2013, 08:19 PM

Would this team be better with Griffey, or playing 4 on 5?

-josh- · Jan 17, 2013, 08:19 PM

Pathetic, but a good enough excuse to drink...

cmore · Jan 17, 2013, 08:19 PM

Deja-mother-fricking-vu. I hate you Illinois sports. I hate you.

IlliniRyan13 · Jan 17, 2013, 08:19 PM

Just a complete and total embarrassment to the University of Illinois. The uniform, the alumni, the fans, everything. Goodbye and good riddance to this senior class.

Indeed, i can only say i feel horrible for those that are Cubs, bears and Illini fans...it's a trifecta of crap...

stevo99 · Jan 17, 2013, 08:20 PM

Just awful...and Jim Burr is just a disgrace to his profession

Not saying he was good, but there were several worse players tonight.

BoolahBoolah · Jan 17, 2013, 08:21 PM

I knew we weren't as good as we played earlier in the year, but I'm stunned by this.

We are so awful at every phase of the game right now.

In good news, I will be more productive at work instead of wasting my time on SlingBox watching this crap.

What a complete and utter joke.

That would be me that you are talking about... if I didn't have to work tomorrow I would be working on a black-out drunk right now... words can't even express the disappointment.

Yeah Griffey was one of the better players tonight. That's not saying much, but he did ok. I wish he would knock down a 3 every now and then though...

CaliforniaIllini · Jan 17, 2013, 08:22 PM

I hate reading the forums when we lose...thank god I'm a 49ers fan or else this weekend would be unbearable

rdk573 · Jan 17, 2013, 08:24 PM

I predicted that if we lost to Purdue on the Road, it would be the start of the collapse for this team...unfortunately, I was right....

-josh- · Jan 17, 2013, 08:24 PM

God i can't even imagine how jaded and angry the fans who showed up for this sell out tonight are...i would be infuriated... These seniors should be embarrassed, they have not heart or pride, bench them all and let the young kids get minutes.

Don't bet on it.

illinibri92 · Jan 17, 2013, 08:24 PM

drink drank drunk

Illinois5 · Jan 17, 2013, 08:25 PM

Wow.

chiefcub69 · Jan 17, 2013, 08:26 PM

Laughing stock once again. Seniors should all be benched and let the others play 30+ minutes a game. We are done and may win 2 more games this year.

I almost bought all-session BTT tickets. Bullet dodged.

Hear that Mike Thomas........that is the sound of an empty Assembly Hall......may become a regular sound the way Illinois Basketball is going......goodbye Top 25 for the year!

HallOfPaign32 · Jan 17, 2013, 08:28 PM

Can it get any worse then losing at home to Northwestern by double digits?
