Game Thread: Illinois at Nebraska

[FromTheLogo]

Survive the opening blitz. And please don't play zone when Sanfort is in.

 

[CleverHandle1]

Make your damn FTs!!!!!! Take it easy, Jake!

Since Sandfort's going to make every 3 pointer, we need all the points we can get!!!

Rebounds!!!

AS is a nervous nelly!!!

 

[ChiTown]

The offense looks kinda disjointed so far.

 

[PNWIllini]

And why is that

 

[hoopsfan47]

Nebraska obviously focused on keeping Wagler under his avgs. and daring the rest to step up big. Working extremely well at this point. Hoiberg is no dummy.

 

[BDMAN]

Make your free throws

Yes take your time and make the damn shot and dont leave Sandfort whom ever is guarding him don't crash the boards stay with him

 

[Nohops 73]

I think Nebraska is a bigger challenge than either MSU or Michigan. MSU has offense issues and Michigan is at home. Nebraska is tough at both ends.

 

[PNWIllini]

We had a good stop and it turned into 3 for them.

So, 4 minutes in I've like the looks we've gotten Jake and Tomi despite only getting 4 points out of them. Gotta keep rebounding and force Nebraska to take 2s

 

[Jimbo]

Ok, we need to settle in. Wagler hasn’t been involved much yet. That’s fine, let others touch the ball.

He's broken, but they assaulted him. I wanna pull my hair out and it's because of his defense. He gets lost on simplest screen and switches. Dude, puts our other 4 in make up for Andre MODE!

 

[Iamgroot]

Good rebound and put back big z

 

[skyIdub]

Love the zone switch.

 

[Second place is 1st loser]

Better stay right on Sandfort's hip. He's off to a hot start. Need to shut the water off.

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Huge offensive rebound and put back by Z followed by a defensive stop

 

[fuddrules]

Love the zone switch.

Box and 1

 

[azillini1]

Nebraska basketball home crowd much louder than ours and looks more energetic than what is broadcast from State Farm. People standing and appear more involved. Please fix this!

 

[jamie13197]

Let be clear everyone. You can't guard them hitting 30 ft. jumpers. Nebby is clanking shots. We are not finishing because they are getting away with tackling us.

 

[JKR]

Terrible rebound

 

[Jimbo]

Good no challenge

 

[NASchamp]

We have to toughen up and adjust to how they’re calling the game. Stop looking for fouls.

 

[skyIdub]

Twin Towers Set

 

[Illini_Jack]

Grab the ball!

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Nebraska has challenged Big Z 3 straight times and walked away 0 for 3.

Anybody else getting shaggy vibes from frager
