Game Thread: Illinois at Northwestern

[illini80]

Can’t have him on the floor if he’s giving up a bucket every trip!

 

[Mr. Roberts]

Podz at both ends. Nice!

 

[IllinistuckinGopherland]

Podz the only one hustling

 

[Jon]

F it. Freshmen only at the guard spot right now

 

[Turpin & Tate in 2008!]

Nice play RJ!

As bad of a foul call that is on Plummer, they don’t say “show your hands” for nothing.

 

[spillini]

It’s like there was a gas leak on the bus

 

[illinitiger]

Bardo called out. refs on bad plummer call.....un believable !!! I'm in disbelief...

 

[RML]

The freshman aren't feeling sorry for themselves.

 

[hooraybeer]

good game, you can tell NW is feeling an upset. someone has to step up for us, can’t all have bad games on the same day

 

[Chieeeeffffff]

Pretty horrific games from our senior+ perimeter players. No ball toughness. Trent is shook.

 

[mikeyo]

All that time wasted on grandi

 

[The Sprouting Divot]

These officials are on peyote.

 

[illini80]

Underwood can’t ride Trent every game like this. Gotta give pods minutes until Belo is back.

 

[New Creation]

Ok. I am convinced there is something conspired against illini sports.

 

[InDaAZ]

RJ to Podz = peek into the future

 

[Neidermeyer]

Time for our young guys to step up and win one for us!

 

[skyIdub]

It's almost like they just kinda miss a lot of stuff, and aren't actually out to get us.

I'm not suggesting they are "out to get us" at all. I maintain that they are absolutely terrible....

 

[Mr. Roberts]

We are outshooting and outreounding them. The turnovers are killing us.

Need a 6-0, 8-0 run to take the adrenaline out of them. They’ve completely forgotten that they are Northwestern

This is an extremely underrated comment. The crazy minutes for Trent are hurting us.

 

[pruman91]

frosh playing the game like it should be played ....penetrate and find the open man for a bucket......keep them in the game BU

 

[mikeyo]

Move grandi to garbage minutes and play hawk, RJ, and Goode. Good lord

 

[hoopsfan47]

Been the norm for over a century....when the underdog is expending enormous energy while the favorite stands around, they will get most 50-50 calls their way

 

[grantlab]

What’s most frustrating is we’ve been in the bonus for 7 minutes and the ball has barely gotten inside the perimeter…
