Game Thread: Illinois vs Arkansas

[The Galloping Ghost]

They keep going at Morez and he keeps saying no

Yes, please, go at arguably our best defender. Thank you.

Will hasn't touched the ball in a long time. We are playing exclusively through the other side of the floor. Have to mix it up.

For us to be up this much and not need his offense speaks volumes

 

[SuperMetroid]

Onions!

Trying to get that freshman big whistle

High risk, low reward coaching decision if you ask me.

Great D by Johnson to force the TO, and huge 3 by KJ! Starting to feel pretty confident about this

Is that picture from today’s game?

For a very young team, that's one hell of a way to close a game

 

[TheChief4Life]

Even his airballs are just well-timed passes!

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

Boswell!

Back to 14 with 1:15! So impressed by our guards (outside the TOs).. Have made every play!

 

[Oranges]

KJ is really putting it all together, and it’s great to see

 

[biglug58]

Cramm it Calipari!

 

[aveseaboy]

Ben is fed up with these bs calls

 

[PopChampaign]

Happy Thanksgiving I-L-L

I'm glad Thiero doesn't shoot free throws like TSJ.

 

[Chad Fleck]

Weve done to Arkansas what Alabama did to us.

 

[JSpence]

Thiero kind of reminds me of TSJ. Fast and powerful. Unstoppable.

Minus the free throw shooting, though. Holy crap.

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Ben got the Luke Goode in the vicinity foul call there, lol

 

[NashvILLe05]

Very impressive performance all the way around with KJ, Tomi, and Boswell leading the way.

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

I know D is sort of thought to be his weakness, but feel like Riley would've been a better matchup for Therio than Humrichous. Better than Humrichous. Game's over now...

 

[JSpence]

NINETY.
