If I’m Belo’s NIL advisor… Shampoo ads!

Come on Illini lets step it up on the defensive end and guard the perimeter/ 3 point shots.

 

[DeonThomas]

Our ball and we're up 8 pts with 4 min+ left in the game. A great spot to be in on the road!

Double bonus FT's too.

But nothing marketing "manageability" of the hairdo.

Hilarious to me that Williams keeps saying “that long 2 point jump shot has been open all day” as if that’s not exactly what our ball screen defense is designed to force teams into taking

He’s an idiot that was an amazing college player. Just because he was good, doesn’t mean he understands the game.

Honestly, they’re just hitting a ton of difficult shots right now. I don’t feel like we’re making too many mistakes here. Just gotta keep scoring.

Coleman-in
DMW-out

8 point lead, at MSU, 4:30 left. I want DMW on the floor at this time more than ever.

Playing Michigan State is always infuriating.

This game, to me, has been anything but that. Illinois has been up by at least 7 (or 8?) for most of the game.

On the road?

That's relaxing.

Kofi has got to stop bringing the ball to his waist and lower

He should have stopped doing this by the end of his freshman season. The coaches should have beat this in to his head.

Applies even more to coaching.

MSU heating up. We are basically shooting the same % for the game. We have 2 more Offensive Rebounds and have made 7 more FT's than MSU. Otherwise, this game is pretty even.

 

[Ramrod2010]

Last barrage from MSU?

 

[BDMAN]

I know jake has been on fire, but we are in the bonus drive the ball please and get fouled

 

[Redbull]

Needs conditioner.

And a haircut

Orlando was supposed to be a big man specialist. This is basic

 

[DB11Headband]

Wowsa

 

[azillini1]

Got a break there on the stoppage.

 

[D1959]

Is there a coach that is a bigger whiner than Izzo?

 

[SouthFarmLlama]

Izzo is really getting on my nerves

 

[IllinistuckinGopherland]

Here we go

 

[Manual3for4peat]

We are getting hosed

 

[Ramrod2010]

Guys, the 3rd ref wasn't down there... That's why the play stopped.

And who feels a warm steam on their leg right now, jeez.

 

[IllinistuckinGopherland]

How on earth?

 

[Zorak]

Refs are now trying to give this game to MSU.
