If only Dain could figure it out defensively… wouldn’t mind giving Amani a few minutes.
Dain needs to learn to play to his strengths and dribbling more than once or twice vs teams like this usnt good for our team. One reason I love Ty and Domask is they play to there strengths and don't hurt our squad
I also excited Hawkins is getting f better at doing thus too.

The crashing of the boards sure doesn’t look or feel like it did against Rutgers. Hope they get back to that in the second half

We played 10 players in the half............Our past second halves show we are well conditioned so there's hope we wear them out.....

Turnovers have been an issue , but FAU has been called for travelling numerous times also.......

Doc Domask is taking advantage of the mismatch and making some nice buckets down low........refs have been ok , IMHO .....

Marcus is having his way booty-balling them to death. No reason to stop that. Harmon with the needed offense and one really good defensive play, but would love for him to get more consistent on that end. Luke doing what he does. We need Hawk to not pick up a cheap third foul early. That will help our defense. TSJ forcing it a bit too much. He’s way more physical than their guards. He just needs to let the chances come to him. And crash the freaking boards. There’s no reason these guys should be outrebounding us.

Turnovers I can live with

9 Illinois
7 fau

Rebounding needs to be adjusted

We’re scoring at will. Gotta rebound better in the 2nd half. Of course that stupid banked in three is the difference so far
Getting out rebounded 16 to 12 but shooting 61%. If we can hit the boards a bit harder and cut down on TO's we have a great chance to win this one.

Gotta limit their 3s. Needed to get some separation going into the half when their big man was on the bench.

Can they hit the 3 at this rate in the second half? I doubt it.

Let's keep going strong to the rim in the second half.

Was Guerrier not in because of fouls......i must have missed that........Just heard we shot 64 % for the half......wow.......

We can win this game if we just keep on doing what we have done so far , minus the turnovers.......

Time for me to med up some ..........................Let's go illini.................

that drive by TSJ for the flush was DYNO-MITE !!!!!!!
