Game Thread: Illinois vs Maryland

[punchabove33]

Marcus killing us with the turnovers..

 

[bjp84]

Domask horrible today! Too many TO’s

 

[JSpence]

Jfc...how do you not go to the bench now. This is beyond stupid.

Textbook, TEXTBOOK situation. Absolutely nuts. If there's a way to put a loss on atrocious shooting day on the coaches, that's it.

 

[grantlab]

As bad as this has been, Coleman is working his absolute butt off

 

[FloridaMan]

Fade away three is not what we're looking for. Good lord

 

[Illinifan55]

We absolutely do not have a chance to make it into the Top 5, no matter what happens in this game.

With everyone that has lost ahead of us this week (7 of the 9 teams ahead of us have lost, Houston and Oklahoma lost twice)... and if we looked convincing in this game... we ABSOLUTELY did have a chance...

 

[ILLI die hard]

The team looks really sluggish, possibly tired from tough game Thursday.

 

[skyIdub]

Are DGL and Nicco available? Wtaf? This team needs a bench spark. About 30 minutes ago.

 

[New Creation]

We should go to the FT line each trip down for the rest of the game.

 

[azillini1]

Domask with 5 of our 9 TO's.

Nobody really looks like they’re chomping at the bit to come in right now. Bench looks dead

 

[HailtotheChief]

Once in the bonus ...Go Domask!

 

[eas23]

The whole point of Goode running to the corner on the fast break is to get an open 3. If he has to pump fake and shoot off balance....it's not an open 3.

 

[IlliniwekKDR]

A 4 point deficit feels like 20 right now

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Him and Ty are the only 2 guys on our team playing hard on D for us today.

 

[Flyin' Illini]

Coleman is singlehandedly keeping us in this game right now.

 

[Bassinillini]

Once in the bonus ...Go Domask!

Hope Marcus doesn’t get a double double through turnovers today. It’s been a rough one for him.

 

[Chillinini]

Team has and will always miss TSJ.

 

[hoopsfan47]

Ball game...should not have been in that situation but that was the dagger and game ender.

 

[KC_Illini]

I’ve seen several times now Maryland players entering the lane early on free throw shots to get better position and the refs have yet to call it

 

[IlliniInIndy85]

Well that 3 felt like the nail in the coffin

 

[GallopingGhost]

That’s a killer. 2 threes from DHS who has been absolutely terrible the past 6 games. Sums up the luck of this game

 

[Second place is 1st loser]

Team has and will always miss TSJ.

Excuse at this point. This simply shouldn't be happening.

 

[madillini4]

Disgusting all around. Pathetic really.

 

[Witherspoon_illini]

This games over. What a pathetic way to choke and get knocked out of the top 10.
