ILL!

We need to come out strong and make a statement, especially with TJ in attendance—time to avenge that January loss.

Surely KJ will come to play (as long as Jeffrey Anderson is not officiating).

We beat wannabe Tom Izzo now let's get payback on real Izzo.

 

[Fighter of the Nightman]

Not gonna lie, that win has me even more excited for our trip down to Champaign this weekend! Rest up, and bring the best effort we’ve had all year and get revenge on the Spartans.

Win this, and we are officially “back,” baby!

Please wear script or orange "FIGHTING ILLINI".

If for nothing else...do it for FOTN and family.

 

[IllinialuminAZ]

ILL!

INI!

 

[Illini in Indiana]

It's going to be hard not to have beers during this game!
Now the streak is at 4 wins, .... drinking water while I watch the game.
Let's keep it going

 

[AZILL]

Thank you sir/ma'am! I couldn't do it, lol. Just have them on ice to celebrate aftewards!

If it's the regular whites, I'm going to be apoplectic.

 

[Oracle21]

Going to get an angry Michigan State team. They just lost at home to Indiana.

 

[FloridaMan]

Let's hope the staff at least throws in a token zone here and there. MSU has proved they are vulnerable to that tonight. Not overly confident our staff will do that, however, after what I've seen this season.

 

[sacraig]

Let's just go ahead and win out.

 

[Oldskoolkoach]

Don't let Izzo get the record in our house!

 

[New Creation]

MSU coming after a home loss to IU... we better be ready!

Msu just lost at ucla and usc

I can promise you this. I'm going to be hyped AF and apologies to Morez, but it's a TJ jersey game for sure.
I expect Pizza Hut parking lot energy Saturday night from everybody.

I’m cautiously optimistic it could have the opposite negative effect. IMHO, MSU was bound to regress to the mean a bit, and maybe they’re slumping. MAN, it would be fun to dish them a double-digit butt whooping for revenge!

Or better yet … finally surprise us with orange Script or white Flyin’ Illini!!

Just please not the 1LL1NO1S ones, lol.

I talked myself into this pov pretty late in the game too. They were beatable in East Lansing and they are absolutely beatable in Champaign. Go at their bigs and don't play casual.

Some '05 throwbacks, please.

 

[LvilleILL1]

Big one. MSU will bring it, especially after a loss. But we should be even more motivated, KJ specifically
