Game Thread: Illinois at Minnesota

[TCTORNADO]

Trent Frazier just got some votes for All BIG defensive team.

 

[Turpin & Tate in 2008!]

20 more minutes like this. Please.

 

[ILLINI IN NE]

Minny struggling on offense without Robbins, and some great defense by the Illini.

Lets come out strong and build on this lead.

 

[skyIdub]

Bottle this up and mix it in with the beet juice = BEAT JUICE!

 

[Illini-Rule]

Lets be minnesota's only home lost of the year!

I'm pretty sure Maryland beat them in Minnesota earlier in the year.

This will get buried cause of all the other good things about that half but guys...

11-11 from the FT line

 

[Loyalillini10]

Really, really helps when we make the front end of 1-and-1s. Also helps to make all of your FTs...

 

[skyIdub]

You absolutely have a monopoly on these.....

I even threw a little Hawk in there for you Sox fans!

My wife got up with 4 seconds to go after watching the first half, walked right in front of the TV, and i missed the ball going in. She watched the whole half until that point. How can I stop this from happening so i don't miss anything like that ever again?

Carr carries like crazy

I have the number for a good divorce attorney.

11 for 11 at the free throw line. Bravo!

 

[Miles Leonard]

Best stat so far

11/11 FTs. That is not a typo.

Inject that into my veins

 

[altenberger22]

Just like 1989 and 2005, we have a very likable team.....with mega star power and also a complimentary supporting cast.

Even as a neutral TV viewer, you could learn to love this roster, after watching them for 5-6 games (That does not happen with Kentucky or Duke, and all the Freshmen).

 

[OrangeNBrood]

I can see Grandison scoring 18 for us in an Elite 8 game. Love his game.

Grandison got the game of, like, an Amazon delivery truck driver in his 40s who stops off by the court in the park between deliveries, busts a bunch of kids ***es in 21 real quick, and then gets back in his truck, drive home, catch a shower, roll a *****, put on some Al Green, then make love to his woman with a Dr. J poster gliding across his bedroom wall.

Tell me I'm lyin.

Trent, Ayo, Kofi .... and Jake .... thank you for bringing this program back!

 

[skyIdub]

I still hope BU is railing them for the weak turnovers.

 

[Loyalillini10]

I roared.
Forget the grandson was napping.
Oops

I thought you misspelled “Grandison” and I was like, “he has been awake all game!?!?!? LOL

 

[IlliniTime]

Older players getting it done today. Curb/ Ace not factors so far.

Lots of options. They will all allow you to watch....but all likely to end your marriage. Gotta pick your priorities but I won't even hazard a guess what any Illini fan would choose.

+1. He has been elite on Carr. Carr has only had one make on Trent if I remember correctly

That's a scary thought for our competition when you think we have a possible 10+ games left for them to improve before the NCAA's.

 

[CHEEF]

Scared the ***k out of my dog when Frazier hit that shot

You forgot Andres.
