Game Thread: Illinois at Minnesota

[CDRUSN]

Love the enthusiasm, grittiness, hustle and ball movement by the Illini so far. The long lethargic lapses that marked stretches of our previous 2 games against Nebraska and NW are nowhere to be seen so far. Minny is also giving us their best shot.

 

[Double ACL]

I love this team.

 

[JFGsCoffeeMug]

Wow, that Ayo pass was something else.

 

[FeelYourPaign]

No replay for me.
Was that giorgi tip in halfway down?

 

[altenberger22]

Our running game is superior today! Out on the break a lot --- and we even blew two easy buckets in a row (Ayo block & Ace TO).

 

[Illini_Jack]

We're playing some really good D in the last 5 minutes

 

[Miles Leonard]

No foul call on Giorgi. Refs gonna ref

 

[New Creation]

minnesota is trying so hard right now..

 

[CubsIlliniFan]

Did GB touch the ball?

 

[skyIdub]

Giorgi's been fouled two trips straight.

 

[FeelYourPaign]

Did GB touch the ball?

I didn't think so, but ....

 

[Ransom Stoddard]

They keep giving Robbins credit for that block on GB, but it was Johnson from behind.

 

[skyIdub]

100% FT shooting ALERT!

 

[JFGsCoffeeMug]

Kofi looking silky smooth on those 2 FT makes.

 

[IlliniTime]

If Cockburn hits FT’s, GAME OVER.

 

[spillini]

This defense has me howling over here. Beautiful.

 

[JFGsCoffeeMug]

Frazier is a menace. Glad he's one of the good guys!

 

[skyIdub]

CoHawk sighting!

 

[the juiceman cometh]

Trent playing a great game on both ends. If he is on we will be hard to beat.

 

[CubsIlliniFan]

100% FT shooting ALERT!

Dont jinx it LOL

 

[Ransom Stoddard]

Game so lopsided the last few they're talking about GB/KC roommate antics.

 

[Pikeillinifan]

They are playing a very solid game, tough defense and hitting their free throws. I’ll take it.

 

[altenberger22]

100% FT shooting ALERT!

And look which guys have been shooting

 

[New Creation]

D.W. has to hit that.. dang..

 

[Illini_Jack]

Did they just say that Minnesota dude has 5 blocks already?
