Game Thread: Illinois vs Maryland

[JSpence]

Damn, there's that fat lady.

 

[azillini1]

We only have 3:37 to erase the 7 point deficit. I was so hoping for this win today at home.

 

[Manual3for4peat]

Brads done some great things here. He absolutely refuses to adjust defense and will allow a team to just beat us over the head with the same thing over and over.

See Loyola.

 

[1970 John]

We’re 3 for 22 in the second half. That sums it up.

If we were shooting at 50 percent…

IF.

 

[Flyin' Illini]

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

It's not luck. He was wide open. Guys are gonna hit those eventually.

 

[JSpence]

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

It was fun for a few games. Really, it was. Make the tournament. Go Illini.

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

Considering Harmon couldn’t guard a chair today. This is pretty egregious.

 

[GallopingGhost]

Our defense has been bad, our offense has been bad, our lucks have been bad, our energy is just putrid.

This makes me so mad, because any other day,9/10 times we would blow the doors off this Maryland team. But we lay an egg on a Sunday and we deserve to lose this.

 

[DICKnaggie]

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

He's holding the ball way too much and the rest of the offense has stagnated waiting for him to play booty ball.

 

[Illini in Indiana]

It is ugly when you can't make a bucket.

 

[Da88]

A step slow and getting out toughed at home. Did the team shovel snow on 57 this morning? They look tired and unmotivated.

 

[hoopsfan47]

Without TSjr. this is the floor for this team. Sure missed him today.

 

[Lord Voldemort]

Did we skip the pregame shootaround and layup line today?

 

[KCBassin]

Domask looks like a gut constantly asked to play 40 min. There are subs avail today and brad won't play them. Esp with an offensive specialist in dgl

 

[aaeismacgychel]

That was a prayer... But we've got a chance

 

[FloridaMan]

Here come the refs. Predictable

 

[azillini1]

If we were shooting at 50 percent…

IF.

Down to 32% for the game. Maryland at 46%

 

[New Creation]

Game. Unless DD becomes a superhero.

 

[eas23]

Wait, people really thought Moretti was gonna play today?

 

[aaeismacgychel]

That went poorly

 

[skyIdub]

Coleman was singlehandedly keeping us in this game right now.

FIFY

 

[WeWillWhen]

 

[Jimbo]

Uh oh

 

[GallopingGhost]

Coleman just got jobbed twice in 10 seconds

 

[CentralILLini]

Coleman fouls 4 and 5 in 15 seconds of play.
