    Illinois 72, Iowa State 69 Postgame

    For all of the Underwood haters, I would hope that you swallow your pride and give him the credit he deserves! :shield:

    Game Thread: Illinois vs Iowa State

    While we are playing solid defensively, between poor shot selection and horrific free throw shooting we should be up 20!!! Let’s put our foot on their throats!!! :shield:

    Thank goodness for the BU era! We no longer wonder if we’re going to dance or not. We’re debating over a 3 versus 4 seed. Let’s go out today a beat a challenging Nebraska team and then surprise PU in the finals! Then we can debate on a 2 versus 3 seed! With BU’s recent performance in the...

    Pregame: Illinois at Iowa, Sunday, March 10th, 6:00pm CT, FS1

    We’re starting to play better defense and our bench has gotten deeper. I’d be worried if I was Iowa that they have to potentially play us 3 times in 3 weeks!:shield:

    Game Thread: Illinois vs Purdue

    The boys are playing hard! Eddy is a beast! And anyone that was ever confused on if Hummel is better than Bardo … it should be crystal clear! He is painful to listen to! :shield:

    Penn State 90, Illinois 89 Postgame

    To be honest, I shouldn’t let losses like tonight affect me the way that I do. It’s not warranted and it’s certainly not healthy. But to have a team as talented as we have and then see the total collapse that we saw is gut-wrenching! You could blame Coleman’s mental lapses, Goode’s horrific...

    Penn State 90, Illinois 89 Postgame

    Couldn’t agree more! Domask is really slow but Goode looks like he’s dragging a fridge! The other team fights with each other on who gets to match up with him. How he could be in the game that much tonight when all we needed to do was play decent defense is unfathomable. And that solely rests on...

    Illinois 85, Maryland 80 Postgame

    If you haven't watched the Sleepers Recap of the IL/MD game you need to. They absolutely shred Willard calling him an imbecile and much much more ... classic! :shield:

    Illinois 85, Maryland 80 Postgame

    So Willard starts by catching a ball that's in play and then give a pointing finger lecture to TSJ. Then he whines like a little b_itch about foul disparity without one complimentary word about Illinois. Brad went out of his way to say nice things about the crowd, Kevin's efforts and their...

    Week of 2/12 Games Thread

    Really unimpressed with either team. I’d love for both of them to lose but is it possible for Wisconsin to score an “own goal” like in soccer or hockey and have Iowa win by default? :shield:

    Michigan State 88, Illinois 80 Postgame

    Thank goodness, the sun still rose this morning. Sometimes my passion for the beloved gets the best of me and yesterday’s loss was no different. There is no question that the defense gave up way to many uncontested layups, we struggle against quick guards, there were a few awful calls, MSU shot...

    Pregame: Illinois at Michigan State, Saturday, February 10th, 1:00pm CT, CBS

    Pru, I saw this email and immediately thought of you. I wasn’t sure where to put it so I figured the MSU thread. I will end my post by saying i hope we slap Sparty all over their house on Saturday. Go Illini! :shield:

    Week of 2/5 Games Thread

    Unbelievable, Nebraska is down 21, looks like crap, they have 13 turnovers and Tominga/Mast have 10 points combined! Not sure if I’m happy or livid!!! :shield:

    Week of 1/29 Games Thread

    Wow the Huskers were down 16 at half and win in OT! I must say, they looked pretty good and Wisconsin looked beatable. I’m glad they had an emotional OT game before coming to C-U! :shield:

    Game Thread: Illinois at Ohio State

    TSJ has to be so frustrated. Absolutely nothing on either end is working for him!
