Game Thread: Illinois at Iowa

McCaffrey a jag..but nice switching defense
Was hoping we could keep Garza quiet this half. Of course Kipper comes in and immediately gives up a 3 and layup to him.

GB cannot guard Luca. Giorgi gives up ground too easily inside the paint.
That was 100% a foul on Garza on his so called "block"

Sarcasm,....... amazing how well Iowa can play without fouling
Garza is a skilled thug..but they don't call it
That timeout was about 6 points too late.

Exceptional half of basketball so far! 1:20 left to go. Down 1 with the ball. Two top 20 teams battling. Lovin' it!!!!!!

We will not get any help from the refs today in regards to fouls

I dont mind BU letting them play. Need to be tough and battle through.....which we are
I’m exhausted watching this. Refs are letting them play. That’s good for us. Even in a tightly called game, they would still be letting Garza do his thing... but Hamlin would be guarding him right now
Thought the same thing - no idea why they were praising not calling one.
Garza is a beast. An absolute beast. What makes him so tough is that there's nothing he doesn't do well. He's dangerous from everyone and he's hard to contain on the glass. Going to have to figure out a way to keep him under at least a little bit of control.
Say what you want, this team has it. We're down 1 without DMFW, Kofi, and Ayo for much of the first half. Bench has been terrific.

Garza is a hack, he literally hacks everybody. It’s amazing he doesn’t foul out more. Downlow he is killing our guys physically. gab can’t handle it. Kofi looks gassed.

We're in a good spot given Ayo is resting on the bench with the two fouls.
Just want to say I think our bench is giving us some really good minutes... we need GB to get involved... we need kofi to work I’m catching and not bringing the ball down... other than the last 2 minutes I thought we did a good job on Garza.. you have to close out better on him. He won’t blow by you like Oturo could... so we need to close out better. Feliz, kip and griff are doing good. We have missed a few easy bunnies.. gotta clean that up.
It takes more than any one person to stop him.
We got a basket and a stop after the second three. So seems like a good no-TO to me.

Dumb foul on Kipper

Now there's a telling stat.....bench points 16-0 Illini Unfortunately, Iowa does not foul so we'll be seeing the same 5-6 guys all game.
Kipper one of the least smart players in America...either foul hard or don't foul
