Game Thread: Illinois at Michigan

[altgeld88]

Why am I still nervous?

Loss aversion. I feel you.

Why am I still nervous?

You're not drinking enough.

 

[spillini]

Belo time

Why am I still nervous?

You have seen Michigan. But.... 28 points.

Trent 21pt career high graphic. SMH. These guys don't know about frosh Trent

 

[OrangeNBrood]

I wanna beat'em by 40.

I want tragic remembrance of this beat down to whisper in the branches of the trees of Ann Arbor every time the wind blows from henceforth.

 

[FromTheLogo]

I have no words for this.

I do: "Dominant"

 

[Illini13]

Famous quote from The Untouchables that Illini need to follow


You wanna know how to get Michigan? Michigan pulls a knife, you pull a gun
. They send one of yours to the hospital, you send one of theirs to the morgue

In the pre-game thread, I said this would be a nail-biter. I also mentioned that I'm usually wrong. Confirmed. (I did say I thought the Illini would win the nail-biter, but this is something else.)

My two favorite events in college sports:
1) Big wins for Illini hoops
2) Embarrassing losses for Michigan

Tonight, we drink!

Refs calling the paint in uneven fashion.

 

[altenberger22]

Why am I still nervous?

Don't be.

 

[JSpence]

Belo 1st half and Trent in the 2nd

Can we get a THIRD half to put Ayo in?

 

[Pikeillinifan]

Why am I still nervous?

I’m drinking and I’m still nervous too. Drinking a lot.

 

[CogDog]

This is straight historical.

 

[tyrannosaurus scorus]

incredible

 

[spillini]

Egregious

 

[Loyalillini10]

That was a really weak call.

Seriously? Lol

 

[logjam]

How about our defense on Livers and Franz? Or Dickinson, amazing effort. 3 man weave time, lol

 

[Retro62]

You're not drinking enough.

Can I give that...like...50 likes?

 

[Mr. Roberts]

Who was it in the pregame thread this morning who suggested that Trent would go off for 30?

Who was it that had the Wake Forest vibe?

 

[CentralILifer]

I really don't know what to think about how this impacts projections and rankings. A beat down like this has to show extremely well. I mean, is there a better look than to destroy #2 on the road without your best player?

 

[MiloMinderbender]

Giorgi really gets hosed by the refs on a consistent basis.
