Ugly or pretty, I don't care. Just freaking finally beat these guys.

Go Illini. Have to win!

 

[illiram]

We will be at full strength. I expect a win today. We have to win these types of games on the road for any chance at a Big 10 title. And if we want to be an elite 8 or final 4 team, these games are a must. And please put Ty Rodgers in the game at the end. Keeping toughness on the bench is an extreme poor coaching move. I love our coaches, but this has not been smart in game-deciding situations.

Illinois 78
Maryland 72

I can feel confidence growing in the pit of my stomach that we will win...........d j bald head ref is at the idiots- wisky game so that's a start towards a victory.......

We just need to hitch up our jockstraps and shut down Young and the punk arse Reese and keep in the hunt for the B$G regular season title......

The adrenaline is coursing through my body at a rapid pace as game time approaches.........I feel medded up already.............

I really really do...................

Lefty Driesell died today. They are going to honor him before today’s game. As if they needed any more motivation.

We are 7-15 all-time against them. We are 1-7 at College Park. The only time we won there was in 2011. I hate the Terps. I have to hear it from my friends every. single. time. we lose to them. I'm tired of it.

Worst fans in the B1G on so many levels. I Hope TSJ remembered to pack his armor.

I like our blue better than the regular orange.

Order of preference:
- Script white
- Orange fighting Illini
- Navy fighting illini
…………
…………
- normal orange
- normal white

This is a big test today to see if we have learned effective in the paint defense.

None of these players even know who he was.

Oh yeah. He hasn't caught a lot of trash on the road(off color remarks here and there), but he had better have rabbits ears today.
