Game Thread: Illinois at Indiana

Nebraska has put together wins playing 2nd stringers and walkons.
If we can get one person hot (Mayer please!) we can still do this.

I believe Illini need 12 or more combined points from RJ and Goode in order to win.

Ugly in a beautiful sort of way.
Not good when we have games every two days. I wonder how many he will miss.

I love when we play Indiana. It’s always crazy in one way or another, usually spiteful. Sometimes fun but always frustrating. It’s a beautiful mess.
Break out game for a couple guysEagerly anticipating seeing who steps up today in TSJ's absence to propel us to victory once again in the imitation AH.

We are going into unholy land…
Assembly Hall is a hostile place…
But remember…
Let’s sneak out of there with a win!
(Jacques, Jacques, get the plane ready)
And the Orange and Blue prevail.

I don't care how great a team is....if you take 17/5/3 plus size, plus good on ball defensive skills, plus being your best free throw shooter and one of the only players on the roster who can consistently get to the rim, that's incredibly tough to overcome. If there was ever a game to get hot from 3 and eliminate silly turnovers...this would be it. The game has to be played in the 60's to have a reasonable chance.
Edit:. Need to add that avoiding foul trouble will be critical.

Cosigning @Illini_Jack 's + @LvilleILL 's predictions from the pregame thread:
RJ finally has a breakout game, Ty makes some winning plays and the beloved come out of Bloomington with a huge Q1 win
