Game Thread: Illinois vs Minnesota

[2qtslow]

Minny gonna go from 6-0 to 6-6 in a fat hurry.

And then they could go downhill from there!

 

[Miles Leonard]

This team is very overhyped so far this season. They’re just not that good. So far they beat a not so good Duke team. Wow! We’ll see what happens, but I’m not impressed with what I see so far. Especially with Mr. Basketball (Miller)

So what do you think now?

 

[kyillinifan]

Great win. Really needed it. Miller with some nice 3’s.

This is the Kofi I thought we were gonna get this year

 

[BRucks]

Koi is 33 and 13

Glad I wasn't able to see that slow start. Minny just withering around Kofi. 33 points in 25 minutes...

HAMLINSLAM!!

 

[TheAngryBavarian]

Jermello?

 

[the juiceman cometh]

Inject this into my veins

 

[CentralILLini]

Love Trent. He will be our microwave off the bench very soon.

Curbelo is the real deal boys.

 

[Whitmans Sampler]

HAMLIN HAS HANDS AND JAMS

 

[TheAngryBavarian]

When was the last time we beat a B1G team this bad?

 

[EyeoftheIllini]

How fun is that? Love the joy for Hamlin — especially from Kofi.

 

[I11ini82]

This feels like when we beat Minnesota like 20 straight times or whatever that spanned when I was in school. Dang, it feels good!

 

[JSpence]

Minny gonna go from 6-0 to 6-6 in a fat hurry.

Yeah. Go look at OKSt's schedule. Beat Marquette but have a mountain to climb.

HAMLIN HAS HANDS AND JAMS

Knowing the coaches Jermaine has played for in both HS and College, this doesn't shock me at all.

 

[logjam]

Koi is 33 and 13

Miller with 14

 

[DICKnaggie]

Curbelo is just dynamite even with all his flaws. What a phenomenal scout and recruiting coup.

 

[CDRUSN]

The Illini will have some fun in the film room watching the replay of this one. Unlike the session after the Mizzou embarrassment.

 

[TheAngryBavarian]

BU still barking up 30 with 80 seconds left...I like the intensity.

 

[thehass]

I think Minny has beaten our record for missed free throws

 

[skyIdub]

Lieb Alert.

 

[JSpence]

Miller with 14

Disaster!

 

[2qtslow]

Is Tyler still on this team?
