Game Thread: Illinois vs Maryland

[JFGsCoffeeMug]

This game is basically over. Ugh.

 

[DeeIL89]

And now Will can't get a bucket to fall on his layup. Ugh.

 

[TheFlyingIllini1317]

I'm turning this off, pray we did enough for a 6 seed. We are bi-polar and can't handle teams that pressure us in the half court.

 

[Illini John]

Well we've done it. We made a little boy cry. I think I'll join him.

 

[illinifan1971]

These dame touch fouls ruined the whole game.

 

[Jon]

Good game, lets get it together for next week

 

[Fighter of the Nightman]

What. The. F***k.

 

[PizzaHutParkingLot]

Aaaaaaand that's 3 on Ivisic. That is probably game over

Tomi’s gotta be smarter than that..

We’re also not doing a great job of quieting the “we’re not consistent/tough enough” crowd

 

[ChiTown]

It’s like Deja vu all over again.

 

[PopChampaign]

When they panned to the kid in the illinois hat crying, that did it for me, it’s 100% chance this type of play continues the rest of the game. Not really looking forward to the tournament either, but football… oh yea… I’m ready !

 

[CleverHandle1]

Keep under 30, Illinois. You can do this!

 

[Second place is 1st loser]

Tomi can't be that mindless and Riley is intimidated and KJ can't play in this game defensively.

 

[DICKnaggie]

How are we this bad when healthy?

 

[Tyrone HoggLegg]

So how many points down before you guys finally stop saying "We'll wake up"?

 

[The Galloping Ghost]

I’m watching this with my Maryland friends and let me tell you, this is a heII.

 

[Marshall_Lucky]

How was Riley not fouled there?

 

[Epsilon]

New plan. Look like we’re going to lose the ball every play and sneak in a three.

 

[Pikeillinifan]

At this rate, we're going to have our two worst losses in program history within the last six games.

 

[FoundersClub]

Yea it ain’t our night.

When this team goes bad…it goes terribly bad.

 

[azillini1]

So if we have 2 first round NBA selections on our team this year, how many does Maryland have? There are a couple on the Twerps I would take over our guys. They do play with toughness and speed.

We are over-matched

 

[BBlock24]

This could be worse than the Duke loss.

 

[TheFlyingIllini1317]

When did Maryland learn to shoot like this!?!?

 

[PlayDeeBrownNote]

This team just completely caves when the chips are down.

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Well, they are missing some shots. But it seems like they're getting more than 50% of the rebounds on that side

They're shooting 67% on threes at high volume... they ain't missing

 

[Epsilon]

Good game, lets get it together for next week

We clearly need the time to practice…
