Game Thread: Illinois at Oregon

[DeeIL89]

I’m going to say it:

This is 2005 Illini good

This is the offense that we were told that this team was capable of.

 

[punchabove33]

I think the football team is out there

You mean the Oregon football team? Close to getting down by 30

[Flyin' Illini]

They are heading for the exits already?

You might say most of them never entered.

 

[illiniguy24]

This is tight

 

[Miles Leonard]

Pretty brutal 24 hours for the Oregon major sports.

I don't remember an all-around road performance by the Illini like this since 2004-5. Incredible to watch.

We ballin tonight! They talked up Oregon in the pregame big time. All seniors and tested, they dont lose at home much. This is big time

 

[ILL-Intentions]

Ben just likes the happy little trees. Close it out men

 

[Rap47]

Break out game for Ben. We are seeing his ceiling tonight after a month of seeing his floor.. This is the Ben we need in March!

Really nice post. If he plays like this they are hard to beat.

 

[zentrails]

If I’m managing to stay up on the East Coast, the team shouldn’t fall asleep

Yeah, me too and I'm old as dirt

 

[New Creation]

100 on the road against top 10 team?

I think this is what Brad envisioned.

 

[biglug58]

Tre White is silky smooth.

Impressed by his body control no waste of movement. Perfect free throw shooter.

[Illini in Indiana]

Wow, can't get much better 2 days as an Illini fan

And our young team is pouring it on them. Huge stride for us right here.

 

[JSpence]

I mean come on now, who thought it would be this great?

I wasn't afraid of this game before Oregon got their spirit ripped out by OSU, but I had no inkling. This is nuts. This defense is REAL.

 

[NashvILLe05]

Tre and DGL trucking it up the wings because they know the pass is coming.

Chemistry, ya'll.

Not only that, we’re making them spend so much energy on D and just getting back that they’re running out of gas on offense. Love that we keep attacking as opposed to trying to run the clock.

This may be our Wake Forest game, Keep your foot on their throat and RUN

 

[Frank]

Damn. All I can say. Damn. I'm sure this team will have plenty of lows, but these are some pretty great highs. Reminds me of the 2021 game at Northwestern...just crushing em.

 

[FantaIllini]

Pretty brutal 24 hours for the Oregon major sports.

And a pretty great 48 hours for Illini major sports
