Game Thread: Illinois vs Iowa

[RML]

fortunate to be tied. Had the feel of Iowa control from the tip. Make adjustments and come out firing.

I feel good about it. Survived their early 3 point barrage, and now I feel like we've gotten into their heads.

I'm completely fine with Iowa being our main rival going forward. Border school and I don't hate another team or head coach more

Luca Garza = Herman Munster . . , . . . . . Same guy

Please don't dis Herman by comparing Garza to him....

DMW has somehow become a legitimate 3-pt threat. It's incredible.

You should see him in practice shooting 3's from the corner... impressive... he's put in the work... just needed to play on the offensive end... for some reason he wouldn't.... Just glad to see it today... now they have to guard him and can't just pack it in... Go Illini!

I was waiting for an Iowa player to have a Grayson Allen moment and start crying.

Over/under punches thrown in the second half 1.5?

 

[ILLINI IN NE]

Iowa players whine more about foul calls than any other B1G team.

 

[Efrem Winters fan]

these Hawkeyes are big s*** talkers. mccaffery a hothead like daddy. best to shut them up with a nice beating

I would love to see things escalate to Francon 1 condition!

Ayo takes over in the 2nd half

Chin might hate Iowa more than any of us

Deon does too. He even said last game i have an issue for obvious reasons!

 

[RIVERCITYCHIEF]

I would rather see DMW hoist a 3 than trent.

DW doesnt take bad shots. Glad to see him hit em. I know he can with out a doubt

 

[Fr8trn16]

Hopefully they feed Kofi the ball more in the 2nd half! Here was dominating in the first half until they stopped giving it to him! Definitely had it going and Garza is afraid of him... I can see it in his eyes... they ate doubling and triple teaming him... Alan time baby!

Indiana just collapsed again!

Iowa just passed them on my B1G Most Hated list.

When is the last time we had a decent out of bounds play??

When Bill Self was here

Old school Big 10 basketball, I love it!!!! Go Illini....I L L....I N I !!!!!

I don't know about anyone else, but I've kinda noticed that we don't win many of these "old school BIG 10 Basketball" games... hopefully that changes, just what I notice...

Glad to see we're not the only team capable of long FG droughts.

From this board, that's the pot calling the kettle black.

 

[IllinistuckinGopherland]

Bad defense and hot Iowa shooting dig the hole. Damonte, Kofi, and Kipper pulled us out of the hole. Time for Ayo to take over and win us this game. I want the kind of lead that gets senior ovation timeouts at the end.

We aren't players, we're fans.

+1

Thank goodness DW has his shooting eye because Trent has lost his. More zone from Iowa the 2nd half so someone will have to make some 3s to open the middle. The 2nd half should be special. Hope we are the ones celebrating.

I love how Franny cries at every foul on his son... could you be more of a wuss father/son combination ?

GB, Kip, Kofi, DW. hell even Underwood had 2 great post feeds. Everyone played well except for maybe TF everyone played well
