Illinois 83, Northwestern 74 Postgame
- Status
Some of the players may still be recovering from whatever going though that locker room and ran out of gas at the end.
Last game worried me a bit with our activity level but this game put it to rest for me. I will chalk it up to Illness rolling through guys as reported. Great bounce back to take Northwestern out of the game right away. Also did this with not great 3pt shooting again so continue to find ways to put up points. Will keep hoping for them to fall but until then keep crashing the boards and we can win any game.
Hopefully the scorekeeper treats it as “offensive indifference”, but he probably does- regardless I thought it was cool- I’ve never seen a player just put the ball down and start shaking hands, it eliminates the need for standing there holding or dribbling it
It was the phone call Brad made to the B10 league office….maybe Wymer listened
Neil Bresnahan…
Biggest positives from the game:
Much better collective energy and effort
Morez Johnson definitely redeemed himself from his last game against Maryland. He played very well.
KJ, Kylan, and Tre played much more under control and seemed to mostly let the game come to them.

Maybe they have the Flu, Covid, Strep
At the risk of enduring rath....I am assuming this is really Boswell posts. If so, is he a civil war buff
ESPN win probability reached 99.1% at the 18:16 mark of the second half. NW got it back to 99.0% at 0:42. Dominant all game long with sloppy play the end when it didn’t matter.
It’s not
Simply amazing that this coaching staff wins so many games. a/s

Even if he thinks they're terrible, do you really think he'd say it into a mic?
Coach doesn’t agree with a lot us on the energy from the students today.
Thanks...would be kind of cool if it was

Very thankful for the refreshing ref performance today, if we had had our normal experience it could have been a completely different game and outcome. We likely wouldn’t have gotten 35 min of Morez at least.

He's right, we are great fans and I'm sure they are great students, but they are not doing their job and Coach is too busy to notice arms crossed and phones out during live play.
Anyone else desperately want to see year 2 of Tomi and Morez together???
Portal will be the biggest obstacle as usual.
