Game Thread: Illinois vs Iowa

[RabidDawgClassic]

Will might get drafted...but man...another year of Fletch and B1G games could make him a sure fire 1st rounder.

I wonder if getting drafted in the top 5 next year vs bottom of the first round this year might be incentive for Will to play one more year. I’m guessing the NIL would be there for him.

Anyone else worried that Boswell hitting that three only encourages him more to take those threes?

Like the result hate the decision

Cant let the foot off the gas. Hawks can score in bunches

Just watched them score 9 in 90 seconds, I want a good ole curb stomping.

Defensive GEM by Hamer. Extend that man

 

[OneTime3]

This is the lineup I like.

 

[azillini1]

Seems like more, but only 3 TO's for us so far. Iowa has 10, so that is a real positive for us

I thought I saw Brad turn away in disgust when he shot it.

Unfortunately he doesn't need any encouragement

I need a blowout so I can have a pep in my step walking into work tomorrow. The majority are Hawkeye fans. Quad Cities problems.

My favorite part about this is that Iowa is a "get right" game for us in the B1G this year.

 

[CleverHandle1]

We can win out...but it will be with basically a 6 man rotation.

Hope their conditioning is on point.

I agree. They will be tired at times, but strategic timeouts and better conditioning could help. I don't see it any other way. When Morez gets back, there's seven.

Loved the sign " Jeffrey Amderson should be investigated "...

[skyIdub]

He already is brother

Welp.

 

[Bigtex]

6-21 from 3. I believe Illinois is 15-3 when they make 7+ 3s.

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Iowa just isn't guarding anyone.

Yep. They haven't all year. Just a terrible defensive team. They're a Quad 4 defense and it shows

Hey, Mrs. Hamer

 

[CleverHandle1]

Good foul, Jake!!!!

KJ has played very well. Appears to have been an emphasis on him playing off ball and doing less. Making him and the rest of the team much better.

When was the last time we won the turnover battle?

I like that hard foul by Jake Davis

 

[HailtotheChief]

Love love love that hard foul...Jake Rambis!

 

[Jon]

I love Jake Davis for that. But man... How does he constantly get into situations like that
