Game Thread: Illinois at Minnesota

[Adnarel]

Man, it's nice to hear the Krush on the radio feed.

Malcolm puts the boys on his back again. I'm very, very relieved to see them keep fighting. That actually says a lot for Groce. These guys want to win for themselves and him.

 

[Ramrod2010]

Oh jeez

 

[aluma]

Here is a positive thought, I'd take Groce over Pitino all day every day and twice on Sunday. I think pitino might be Josh Pastner without the recruiting ability.

This game really did nothing to make me more confident for the rest of the season. But God it feels nice to win.

+1

 

[freebird6]

owwwwww. that one got the tailbone

 

[zpfled]

welp, now Finke's probably out for the year

 

[PerennIaLL]

Not Finke

 

[frankfortillini]

Groce does love those kids.

 

[Adnarel]

Finke......

 

[illini8507]

Whew, can't afford to lose him

 

[ILL12]

Thanks for being a true fan :tsk:

I'm a fan of the kids that play the game in the orange and blue. I am not a fan of the man who after 4 years,still loses us games due to his baffling substitution patterns. I am not a fan of the man who has all these "Canadian connections" yet hasn't signed any Canadian talent. I am not a fan of the man who's offense is centered around a scoring PG, yet he can't recruit one. I will support the players. I will not support the coaches who truly do not deserve to be here.

 

[Gunner23]

Finke will probably miss a few games now...

 

[FinalFour88]

Dominating OT performance!

 

[Ramrod2010]

I thought he might have hit his head but thankfully he looks okay.

 

[illinoisportsfan]

Not a big confidence builder, but it feels good to get a win, especially on the road.

 

[Adnarel]

I want Finke to hit these FT's so he can get his double-double.

EDIT: darn, they're not letting him shoot

 

[illini8507]

Oh no...

Announcer is harping on Tate's FT's but I thought he was pretty solid on the line

Go away ... Take this to the other thread.

Pretty much all Hill, but nice to see this team play with some stones at the end of reg

Great last year. Not as good this year since he got his finger torn off

 

[Adnarel]

Questionable call to have Tate be our FT guy.
