Game Thread: Illinois at Nebraska

[D1959]

Rodgers the beast on the boards

 

[aaeismacgychel]

can we crowdfund a tv ad during the games pointing this out?

Would be a better use of NIL money, that's for sure.

 

[IlliniForceOne]

I could see Harris having an 8 steal game at some point in his career

I see a triple double in his future.

10 steals
10 offensive fouls drawn
10 missed dunks

 

[bergd91]

Every referee huddle. We got the under right? Ya and Illini 3.5 spread? Let's go break!

 

[whatahack]

Damn our freshmen are good...

 

[NarrowJ]

I don’t know what can be done with that outside shot, though…

Unsure how fluky this is but he's 9 for 26 on the season from three for 34.6% clip. Oddly, some guys can hit from out there and are still poor at shooting FTs.

Having flashbacks to when we used to go out and play at Atwood Hammond, Saybrook Arrowsmith or Tri Valley. Home cooked refball all night. I think the official one time was their coach’s brother or inlaw.

Note, none of these places may still exist anymore I did not check. Consolidation hit the Little Okaw pretty hard.

RJ sacrificing another one shoulder to the gods.. to get his better..

I will take it..

 

[IllinistuckinGopherland]

Love RJ taking and hitting the open three after missing one

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Miss the open three. They make it. Sigh.

 

[WhiteHorseWings]

I’d like to make a motion for Robbie and Joe Buck

 

[Mr. Roberts]

Rodgers is playing his !!! off.

 

[Flyin' Illini]

RJ is fearless tonight. I like it.

 

[spillini]

This is ugly but I’ll take a Rodgers Game

 

[Bigtex]

Besides Shannon, Rodgers player of first half

 

[BBlock24]

Rodgers has been awesome!

 

[skyIdub]

F yes Ty. F. Yes.

 

[eas23]

RJ's shot looks fine. Keep letting it fly.

 

[Illini8420]

Rodgers could be our Lucas Johnson

 

[Retro62]

Sincere showing Rogers how to get PT…contagious

 

[InDaAZ]

Who is the NBA guard I'm thinking of who was an elite defender but had absolutely no offensive game. Darrell Walker possibly?

Patrick Beverley?

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Rodgers is playing his !!! off.

Playing really good basketball these past two games. Starting to look a lot more comfortable on the court. Great thing.

 

[CleverHandle1]

RJ--might as well keep shooting. Great defense. Hate to harp on FTs, but let's go Rodgers. . . .oh well.

Is Saybrook Arrowsmith the name of Nebraska’s big man in goggles?

Something has clicked since Wednesday. Multiple plays where players are diving for balls and winning 50/50 balls. Very pleasant sight and bodes well for the remaining season.
