Game Thread: Illinois at Nebraska

He’s got my vote…at least so far.
He looks like the long lost Hansen brother. Slap Shot not mmm’ Bop
That was pretty funny by the commentators. "If you've played this half and haven't picked up 2 fouls, you have to wonder what you were doing out there." Love it.
In what universe was that off Illinois? That hit at least 2 guys in white. This crew needs help. A lot of help. Like a new occupation.
I wish Harris had any offense to him because he's great defensively but can't hit a darn shot at all.
Combine poor shooting on both sides with the refs turning the game into a slog... Compelling television.
Ditto Rodgers.
Man if we’d just make FTs and a couple more open 3s. But our defense was wait for it…. Elite. Finish this off. Things are absolutely trending in the right direction imo.
Really high quality last shot there by TSJ just didn't fall. It's clear he's the best athlete on the court out there. Nobody on Nebraska can come even close to staying with him. We keep giving him the ball and he keeps driving he should finish with 30+
Shooting has been subpar (with the exception of Shannon) , but the Illini are fighting, hustling, playing great D, getting blocks and steals, diving for loose balls, and generally sharing the rock and finding an open shooter. Totally unlike the listless games against Missouri and Northwestern. I'll take this every game, and trust that shooting will improve.
Offensive bag is the only thing holding him back from being an All-American in my opinion. Needs to get in the gym with Trent in the offseason.
Harris and Rodgers: impact players
Illini in Indiana
- Indiana
Give them time, I see both staying and playing 4 years. DMW style
24 fouls that half...almost unwatchable ball.
Not a single flop called so far, we just keep getting offensive fouls called on us instead, yet still up by 11 at the half
I'll take that
