Game Thread: Illinois at Northwestern

“If he winds up and smokes him” - that’s literally what he did. Thanks Robbie.

Bad take Hummel. You're wrong.

agree, if you miss the ball that bad you deserve the flagrant

 

[derrick6]

We don’t care what you think, Hummel….

 

[GallopingGhost]

These fouls are bad for them too

 

[Jon]

Robbie Hummel no longer trying to be unbiased. Pretty unprofessional

 

[Navy_illini]

There is no play on the ball there sorry Robbie. He had no chance of getting to the ball

 

[derrick6]

Shut up Hummel

All the Hummel loving should take note. This is the moment

 

[Chad Fleck]

Offensive glass effort has been excellent.

 

[jumpingjack]

I think he was legitimately going for the ball with his hand and elbowed him in the face. Not really a flagrant. IMO.

Edit: I’m wrong. Hand didn’t get as close to the ball as I thought.

By definition, it is.

 

[IllinistuckinGopherland]

Doesn’t need to be intent to call a flagrant 1

Edited. I thought his hand was close to ball. It wasn’t. Good call.

 

[Chillinini]

Jeez Hummel, quit showing your man love for NW and distaste for Illinois.

 

[PapaDelsMadeMeFat]

the ball is 3 feet to the left of his face Robbie.

 

[EthanM]

I usually like Robbie but he’s been horribly wrong a couple of times tonight.

 

[Oldskoolkoach]

And the crowd boo'd when he got up, our boys need to get pissed and just run these punks out of the building the last 7.5

 

[Jimbo]

We’ve got to just take it to the rim these last 8 minutes. Live at the line

 

[so illini]

I generally enjoy Hummel's comments. But not tonight

 

[the national]

Robbie, what are you taking about???

 

[McGuppin]

Sounds like Hummel agrees with the call but hates the rule. Whatever.

 

[TheodoreRex]

Wait, I'm confused. Shouldn't Shannon shoot 2 free throws for the foul on the shot and 2 for the flagrant?

 

[jumpingjack]

Crowd was chanting lock him up as he was laying there...I hate this

Gross, gross, gross.

 

[FloridaMan]

Domask!!!! I see you young fella!!

 

[madillini4]

DOWN THEIR THROATS.

 

[ejam21]

my god domask that was nasty

 

[so illini]

NW can't miss a shot and we are missing at the rim

 

[skyIdub]

Oh LOOK they got one right!
