Game Thread: Illinois at Nebraska

[skyIdub]

PUT THE FRESHMEN BACK IN!!

The only real energy I've seen so far.

 

[Btpk138]

They were red hot from 3 until Christmas break now they've gone cold

 

[azillini1]

Need a spark. Starters are sleepwalking.

Yep, don't see the fire/increased intensity yet.

Let's see some RJ.

Luckily Nebby forgot their hot hand, too. Hope they don't remember...

 

[spillini]

Let's see some RJ.

He hurt?

 

[altgeld88]

Where did that 15-2 run go?

 

[CDRUSN]

What has 128 legs and 687 teeth? The front row at a Nebraska home game.

 

[Redbull]

These days I'm hoping that it's a trip to Mr. Frazier's (or Mr. Williams') woodshed and BU just sits there all:

How soon we forget

 

[Jon]

How come our players keep getting accidently hit in the face

 

[DICKnaggie]

Ya, not so sure that was an unintentional...

 

[hoopsfan47]

I'm just not seeing the focus and energy to win this game. Except maybe Trent.

 

[Illini_Jack]

TRENT!

 

[JSpence]

This looks like a high school game. Illinois is totally capable of losing a high school game.

 

[spillini]

Trent is ready to drop a dozen more now

 

[redwingillini11]

It may not have been intentional, but that was NOT a natural "basketball play." Control yourself dude....

 

[FloridaMan]

Nebraska should not score 41 on this Illini team in 40 minutes let alone 25. Pick it up on D!!!

 

[iillini67]

How many fouls will neb commit? as many as they want.

 

[JSpence]

This isn't a "just win" game. Don't let Nebby be close enough for a full court prayer. Gotta go NOW, five straight minutes.

 

[Steelyunk]

#1 vs #1 has been a great battle.

 

[altgeld88]

C'mon Kofi.

 

[BDMAN]

We are going to spend all of one day ranked if this keeps up, this squad just cannot seem to handle success. Maybe BU is right we should stay unranked.

T-rank projected them scoring 71 just were not holding up the 84 part of it.

 

[BlindLoyalty]

What’s up with Curbello?

[Dude] He’s fragile. He’s very fragile.

 

[Illini_Jack]

I am not happy
