Game Thread: Illinois at Iowa

They've sure got Kofi bottled up. He looks like a Freshman through the first 10 min.

 

[chrisRunner7]

dang Kofi. Gotta not fumble that!

Yeah, that one was on Kofi

 

[Hopingfor500]

That was a good pass and is a layup if Kofi just, well.....catches it. He doesn't look very engaged.

 

[azillini1]

Ugly offense so far on both sides. Looks like a wrestling match.

 

[3DegreeIllini]

Tried twice. Turned over twice.

there is three.

 

[Truffaut]

Brig back good Kofi.

 

[Halloweenie]

Kofi struggling to catch...was hacked some early but some he has just fumbled

 

[Yossarian]

For as strong as Kofi is, his hands aren't.

 

[Illinidpm]

I was just upset with us not even looking into Kofi, but he has had 3 opportunities where we threw him the hall and he has dropped 2 of them..

 

[spillini]

Kofi needs some Elmer’s on his fingers

 

[Oldhickory]

Kofi is charmin soft with the ball today. He needs to grab that stinking ball with a vengeance.

 

[oldschool51]

I have not seen little Fran hit a 3 in the last 3 games he has 2 today

IL: 6/18 :: 33%
IA: 5/15 :: 33%

At this rate, we win.

Lazy close out by Feliz costs ILL with :01 on the shot clock.

Not sure what you are watching--Kofi and Giorgi v.s. Garza has looked like some weird mix of basketball and wrestling. I know they love wrestling in that state but sheesh.

Garza has already thrown enough elbows and upper body blows to foul out in most other conferences. Seems like an incredibly talented jerk.

The plays on the floor for the ball was what I was watching with the quick whistles.

Egwu level

 

[Hopingfor500]

If seems like when teams have guys that are just as big and physical as Kofi, he says away from contact. Once he gets pushed off the box, he's in no man's land.

 

[Btpk]

Garza out and still can't do anything

 

[the national]

Kofi needs help. He looks gassed out there. They just keep pounding him. I don’t think he is quite ready for that kind of physicality. He looks like a freshman?

 

[skyIdub]

Kipper's passing is awful. Decision making.

 

[IllinistuckinGopherland]

Our passing is horrific today. So many unforced turnovers

 

[RIVERCITYCHIEF]

Take care if the ball!

 

[Oldhickory]

Bad kipper today...

 

[JJE]

Since when did we forget how to throw the ball inbounds.

 

[skyIdub]

There we go Big Man!
