Really hope he does make it back in time to get into the rotation. Haven't read much on the board about the timing of his return.
Illinois 68, Michigan 53 Postgame
These are not good takeaways
This. Exactly this.

Feels good to scrape scUM off the bottom of your shoes
If and when we get some comfortable leads I hope Podz gets a few minutes because we are so dependent on Trent until Belo is back.

Can someone please explain to me what I’m missing. I use the Yahoo Sports app on my phone for scores and standings. After the Nebraska game I noticed we were below MSU in the conference standings even though we were +1. No big deal, probably a mistake, right? Now after beating these losers (Michigan) we are +1 again but still behind MSU in the conference standings on Yahoo sports app. What am I missing?

Podz is getting tick. And not garbage tick either.
100% it made DMW have a really poor game also. Against any pressure D he simply does not have the ball handling skills. Problem is Plummer does not either. We need Belo back bad.

scUM played harder than us tonight
got beat on loose balls all night
Trent , Jake , Kofi played well
defense held scUM to 1-8 from 3 in 1st half and they only had 1 assist in 1st half
we are an elite ball screen team
we turned down 7-8 3 pt shots tonight
gonna do a lot of recovery and film work before 11 am Monday game......
I'll say " Thank you Trent Frazier , you have the heart of a LION "".............

I didn't get the chance to see the game on TV, could only look at the Sidearm Stats page as it was scrolling. But looking at Caleb Houston's stats, he looked like he had a bad game. How did he look on the eye test?

Probably programmed by a MSU grad.
If you go by recruiting rankings, Michigan is a way more talented team than we are -- and it's not even close. Of course recruiting rankings aren't gospel and frequently the whole is less than the sum of the parts.
You know who we could use? Jeremy Fears!

Three more takeaways from tonight
1. Kofi is the best big in CBB
2. Trent refuses to lose
3. Damonte will not have two bad games in a row

I am a Damonte fan but I was wondering while Trent was on the bench, is Podz really worse than this?

I bet better overall record determines the order when tied.
Really? We clearly needed a back up PG tonight. How much did he play? The last 30 seconds maybe. He has played in 10 games this year and very few meaningful minutes against quality opponents. If Underwood felt he was ready he would of certainly played tonight.
