Game Thread: Illinois vs Arkansas

[Jimbo]

Well, I think we’ll win this game, but we need to be better or we’ll embarrassed by Kansas. Just an awful looking half.

Need to run through Coleman in the post.

Hope Luke and Matt can make a couple threes. We can’t beat them off the dribble. They’re one of the few teams more athletic than us.

 

[SuperMetroid]

Just total chaos on offense

 

[Naborman88]

Would Brad admit privately that he wants this season to be over too? Just wondering?

"More turnovers than fireld goals." That is never something you wanna hear during halftime analysis, lol

 

[MAUI DERON]

Hope everyone bet on Arkansas before this game.

Always looking for the positive here...at least the Illini don't have to worry about being embarrassed by Bill Self and Kansas.

 

[EllderIlliniFan]

Looks like Illinois just isn't that good.

 

[Kingo24]

I hope Epps has some positive minutes in the 2nd half. He still just looks rusty out there.

I like your optimism.

3 damn assists!

(BTW Arky has two assists)

When this team hits rock bottom, they break out the shovels and start digging furiously to see if a new level of atrociousness is buried there somewhere. The second half can only get better, no?

We look like a mediocre high school team coached by one of the players parents filling in for the math teacher who highlights as the actual coach the rest of the year

MM's body language is terrible. Come on man!

I’ve been wondering this too

 

[PassingBy]

I THINK we win.

 

[illinois_hustle]

Solid candidate for worst half of the year.
27% shooting
9 turnovers
Out-rebounded by 9

 

[fuggles]

Lots of hero ball. Can we run the play please?

 

[Amelot]

What is the opposite of composed?

Decomposed

 

[DaChief4ever]

Every year....same story.....

 

[JSpence]

It's silly to see that this team be so poor at decision-making while also assuming that they capable of perfectly executing any offensive scheme.

 

[IlliniMike_Aurora]

I feel like i've watched this game before.

There is a bench for a reason.

Where is the coach?

Gallows humor seems appropriate...
