Game Thread: Illinois at Maryland

[PNWIllini]

Damnit. That was winnable

 

[NorthShoreIllini]

Awful awful awful defense there. Holy cow.

 

[IlliniForceOne]

When you decide to play that possession out that is the one shot you cannot give up.

Just can’t go under that screen.

 

[HailtotheChief]

Big shot by them

 

[LoveLovie]

Dang they blew this one... probably a loss they can afford however

 

[Baskins Tiger]

That was a shot

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Wow... Yeah... Miss the wide open three, they make a heavily guarded off balance three. That's how things go sometimes

 

[blife]

Disappointing loss

 

[Butters]

Tough one. On to Texas!

 

[PNWIllini]

Don't give them an open 3

Too late

 

[Flyin' Illini]

Damnit. That was winnable

It was, but it feels like we will never win a game at Maryland.

 

[Scoregasm]

Epps will hit that 3 with more experience. He just rushed it.

 

[Rich]

Why is Hawkins taking that shot? He made a lot of good plays this game and then just throws it in the toilet.

 

[ILLFAN67]

These refs were horrible

 

[sharpshot16]

Cohen flashbacks

 

[NarrowJ]

I just hate losing a game in front of that crowd. Given everything that... occurred.

 

[New Creation]

what a shot.. TSJ has to go over the screen there.

 

[Sean8328]

Ugh tough one just gotta learn and move on great experience for the freshman though.

 

[hiberto]

hate that their POS fans get this win

 

[skyIdub]

Stay classy Least Coast.

 

[CV Illini]

Good fight……tough result

 

[Illini8420]

Refs made it nearly impossible and we still came close. Oh well.

 

[HailtotheChief]

Big shot by them that wouldn't have happened with Trent here. Got to fight over the screen

 

[sacraig]

This is a good Maryland team. I feel like we beat them 6 or 7 times out of 10 on a neutral court. Tough loss.

 

[Chad Fleck]

Bummer. Gave it a good run in a tough environment. Bad decision to go under the screen with 2 on the shot clock down by 1.
