I feel bad doing this, but can't have 1 of 15 from Wagler. That's flat out unacceptable. Forget the refs. Your star has to show up and you have to rebound.

And our conference don't care about fixing it.
Not having boz finally caught up. On to the next.
Case study A tonight in why the Big Ten does not win in March.
This was half basketball at best.
This was half basketball at best.
I hope so.
And they better have rebounding practice allllllll weeeeeek!…

Not sure Sparty could stay within 20 of the Illini in a dance game.
Ivisic DID NOT TOUCH him. His own teammate bumped him down. That needs to be on social media literally one of the worst calls.
And on our end they'll hack all game. Just awful.
Boswell would have been a difference maker tonight.
Want to blame the refs fine, but at the end of the day you can't go 1-15 and miss free throws and expect to win
The refs weren't good, but... Even with that, we didn't make enough shots, didn't get defensive stops when we needed them, and didn't rebound well enough.

We can whine about the refs all we want, and I definitely think it's warranted. But our lottery pick didn't show up tonight.

Bam makes a difference in this game
Yes. Keaton was unplayable.
Nah, not feeding into that nonsense, we lost because Wagler didn’t understand it’s not his night to score and we couldn’t contain Fears. Refs had nothing to do with this one
Games like this is what keeps the conference down. Illinois is clearly better.
5 players, 3 officials, 2 broadcasters against Illinois...these guys got a little drool on their chins
The what happens when the refs call anything on 1 team and solely 1 team for 4 minutes straight game.
Highway robbery.
Games like this are why its been 26 years since the Big Ten won a natty. Have a thug team seeded higher than they deserve and get beat, have a good team seeded lower than they deserve due to a loss to the thugs and have a tougher road. Elevating this kind of play hurts both ways.
