Well, wonderful.

MSU complains about always getting Duke in the tourney. I complain about always having high knees as our ref.

He's stalking us.

Texas Tech is 101-1 in home non-con games since 2014-15, the best mark in CBB in that span.

101-2 would probably still be the best.

He’s literally the only ref whose name I know

I'm looking for TTU to be 0-1 at home in non-conference games vs Illinois on 11/10/2026, which will give me a very nice birthday.

T,Z, Vaaks, Stoya there too cover any freshman jitters. Dare I say JJ and Fagbemi looking for a few minutes as well.

That being said, Coleman should be fine, floor 16 to minutes if foul trouble. Brown a very steady mature freshman. William's extremely talented and he had to push himself and grow for this opportunity, Zens and Davis a great chance under the brightlights.

Illini 96 TTU 88 give or take 20, lol.

I would expect Zens to play a big part in this game as well. He stood out for me last game.
