Curbelo's best game for sure! And I've been a critic.

REFS/OFFICIATING: As an assistant HS coach, I typically allow our home fans to use the ref excuse once every couple of years --- or every 50-60 games. I don't think this is one of those games. Totally fair and equitable so far.
Do they actually ask for permission? No one is saying Illinois is losing because of officiating, they're saying it's a terrible crew and people aren't watching the game to listen to their whistles.

We are too damn sloppy to win a championship. It’s gotta be corrected. The inefficiency with our FTs goes hand in hand with the crazy amount of turnovers in that they are both examples of wasted opportunities to score. Curbelo and the amount of minutes he gets scare the hell out of me. Imagine relying on that in a clutch situation in March. Hopefully he’s sitting on the bench if/when that time comes.
Hopefully he has improved his game and is less prone to turnovers at that point of the season.

kofi is killing us

Kofi needs to come back for year 3 his play and motor is lackluster but Giorgi with 2 fouls is really what is killing us this game we need his play around the basket to balance us out

Man do we look hungover. We have been killed by the ball screen at the top yet we don’t change anything . Please play zone once

This has the feel of one of those games where we will stay 4 to 6 points behind the entire game.

A little higher scoring than I had anticipated.

This would actually be a great NCAA round 3 matchup......#1 vs #4 seed.

If Illini don't realize Mizzou is going to run out to the rim on every possession and they need to get back immediately on defense this game is over.

This broadcast is poorly directed and announced. Jon Sunvold keeps reading the mizzou players’ hometowns from his handout, but is clearly unaware of the Tilmon recruitment story. Camera choices are poor. They even misspelled mizzou coach name in their graphic.
