Game Thread: Illinois at Texas Tech

[pweo]

I don't know what a foul is anymore

 

[Mr. Roberts]

This is about to get ugly.

 

[QueenCityIllini]

This is really hard to watch

 

[FloridaMan]

We are just not tough enough right now. Better dig deep or this is going to get embarrassing.

 

[Pikeillinifan]

We’re getting whooped.

 

[HailtotheChief]

We need to try to win and play freshmen but with at least 3 experienced guys on the floor. The environment is beating our young guys like Zens and even Coleman missing FTs badly. Ethan looks calm.

 

[Chillinini]

Only positive is that the freshmen are gaining valuable minutes and experience that'll benefit the team for the B1G season and March.

I'll continue to say it till I'm blue in the face....no Mirk and Jake is a huge loss.

 

[DeeIL89]

So freaking careless of protecting the ball.

 

[BBlock24]

Men against boys right now.

 

[Iamgroot]

Man this is about to get out of hand quick.if we dont make a run

 

[fatt lacosse]

man i hope coleman is okay

 

[Retro62]

Can’t shoot, can’t defend.

 

[Oracle21]

Not impressed by Vaaks. He can’t guard anyone and is really careless with the ball

 

[ejam21]

Peoipl have been clobbered all game for them to call that weak rebound foul on morillo and then jakstys hittting ball?

 

[NarrowJ]

For the amount of contact allowed on our end that was weak !!! call

 

[RML]

Hope we can get it under ten by the half

 

[DeeIL89]

Just now between DGL and Jaksy at the sideline fist bumping each other while waiting to check into the game.

 

[LurkerintheOpen]

This team couldn't stop my dead grandma from getting into the lane. Casket and all.

 

[Mr. Roberts]

Baylor 2.0

 

[TheodoreRex]

Freshman will freshman- but extremely disappointed in the lack of leadership and want to by Andrej and Tomi. Andrej is one of our biggest problems right now

 

[ChiTown]

They’re taking us to the woodshed.

 

[Illini1977]

Losing is one thing turnover after turnover and missed FTs is so frustrating

 

[NASchamp]

The fouls being called on each end are very different….

 

[illiniguy24]

Assuming we get out of here healthy, it’s a great early season test

They are exploiting all of our weaknesses and the freshman shouldn’t be rattled by any other arena after this one

 

[New Creation]

Like Tomi isn’t helping on defense at all.

Zone. Zone. Some. Or we are going to give up 100 points.
