Game Thread: Illinois vs UCLA

[Illini2010-11]

It’s only 12 minutes into the game and I’m sick of Fran.

If only I can overlay the radio feed and get it to sync to my TV without having to play technology Houdini.

Nothing offensively from the true freshmen yet.

 

[bjp84]

Good game for the Freshmen Guards to see big time bball. They seem a little tentative but it will be good for them.

 

[thehass]

Campbell definitely the guy you have to nullify.

 

[CentralILLini]

Need Hawk to make an appearance.

 

[Flyin' Illini]

Free throws continue to be a problem.

 

[Bleedorangeandblue44]

FT shooting!

 

[FromTheLogo]

Fouls becoming a bit of an issue. Expected with the intensity.

On another note... We seem stronger than them. Fletch-factor!

 

[thehass]

What's the deal with Shannon's free throw shooting tonight?

 

[InDaAZ]

Great shout-out to the student manager!

 

[ILLFAN67]

Make some free throws!!!!

 

[Iamgroot]

Seems about the only foul calls we're getting are drives through the lane... maybe that's the recipe!!

If we can just make some freaking free throws fr guys there called free throws for a reason clean that up and keep playing d and we got this

Did the announcer just say he was on the practice team for the women's basketball program?

 

[trtl]

Even with a brand new team, our weaknesses are the same, turnovers and free throws.

 

[Flyin' Illini]

Is that Adam Driver on UCLA?

 

[azillini1]

Free throws continue to be a problem.

And TO's- 9

 

[ILLFAN67]

Should be winning by 5-6. They make free throws

At Dartmouth. He ain't no dummy

 

[Fighter of the Nightman]

Illini fans >>>

Love how we took over Vegas. Let’s get the home win!

 

[hiberto]

come on take care of the ball!

 

[eas23]

Dude sitting behind Cronin wearing a hat that just says "buckets".

 

[InDaAZ]

Will Fran be able to talk about anything other than Dain’s weight loss and TSJ being able to drive with his right hand?

How about his undying love for Tyger?
That should keep you busy all night…

 

[azillini1]

So far it looks like we have the better athletes. We need to stop turning the ball over

 

[Mr. Roberts]

10 turnovers. Ugh.

 

[ILLFAN67]

How many turnovers do we have?
