Game Thread: Illinois at Tennessee

[Manual3for4peat]

Tennessee is good. This is fun. Love everything about this. Win or lose, this game will pay dividends later in the season.

Agreed. Just need the refs to let them play

 

[JSpence]

Vols scoring inside, outside, and getting all of the calls. No blowout yet, but Illini very far from in control at the moment. Need them to go cold.

 

[DICKnaggie]

Crazy right elbow by Aidoo, but no call.

He's throwing those all up very the place.

 

[Fighting I 95]

How does a team foul 3 times the whole half up until the last minute then have 7 in the first 8. It makes no sense.

 

[jerojohe]

If the refs are going to fix a game they need to stop making it so obvious.

 

[chief]

No moral victories for this team!!!!!!

 

[BBlock24]

I’ll never understand how refs let the teams play in the first half, but go the opposite way the second half.

 

[skyIdub]

The refs are not killing us. Where were those comments in the first half? Exactly.


I hope somebody packed TSJ's cape. We need a hero.

 

[Ramrod2010]

Three fouls basically the whole first half. Now all of a sudden we're fouling once per minute.

That said not having a PG is killing us too right now.

 

[TentakilRex]

No one takes the Grammys seriously

 

[OrangeAndBlueBlooded]

Obvious by Dain there. C’mon man.

That was not Dains fault. Shannon changed him up.

 

[azillini1]

Our defense (or lack of) will be the determining factor in this game

And Shannon and Domask's ability to contribute offensively in the paint

 

[cjw1901]

Two near travels by MD, then bad pass that was almost a TO. Then a TO.

 

[aaeismacgychel]

We desperately needed that turnover by Tenn

 

[PasadenaIllini]

FAU's coach was not savvy enough to take advantage of our deficient ball handling. Barnes is. That's the big difference in this game.

 

[PopChampaign]

Domask has enough turnovers, don't want to see him bringing the ball up anymore

 

[IllinistuckinGopherland]

Guessing Tennessee fans would agree with you, but not in the way you mean.

 

[skyIdub]

No one takes the Grammys seriously

We took our Grammy seriously. She swung a mean belt.

 

[IlliniMilkMan]

And Shannon and Domask's ability to contribute offensively in the paint

Keep driving. The calls will even out.

 

[abchew2]

That’s the way! Lead by example Gurrier

 

[NarrowJ]

Turnovers arent the problem.

 

[HailtotheChief]

Plenty of time and we have some experience. Let's Go!

 

[dbeverly26]

There you go. Gotta attack, if they call it they call it, if they don’t they don’t

 

[aaeismacgychel]

You've gotta be kidding me on that 3. Good lord

 

[FloridaMan]

Dagger with 9 minutes left? Be better, Bill.
