Game Thread: Illinois at Northwestern

[Naborman88]

Netflix is looking more likely for the rest of this season. I can ignore the Illini, just like the Bears, Bulls, Blackhawks, Cubs, etc.

 

[Illini8420]

Anyone got any of those silver linings?

I’m all out.

Goode will thrive in this spread offense but that’s about it. No one can shoot to save their lives

 

[BBIQ]

Man I feel for Underwood.

 

[PNWIllini]

I'm guessing the post-game press conference will be better entertainment than this game.

Brad has no answers yet. What do you want to see?

 

[IlliniKat91]

The free throw discrepancy is ridiculous. Some of what's been called on us has been so ticky tack. Harris can't let himself get carried away trash talking though. That'll burn us every time

 

[Oldskoolkoach]

I

You can track this back to the Penn State game post game presser.

Is that when Mayer made the comment about the coaching staff?

 

[Coop70]

Good night. Gonna be hard to sleep tonight.

 

[Neidermeyer]

That is not a foul! Just sad.

 

[Miles Leonard]

This is turning into quite the unraveling since MSG.

If you would have told me we would start our conference season 0-3, I would have figured our entire roster got hit with COVID or something. I just refuse to believe we are actually this bad.

 

[jumpingjack]

Ok, these refs.
I am not at all blaming this loss on them. They just are terrible.

 

[Jimbo]

Terrible call

 

[Ramrod2010]

That ain't a foul, gg refs

 

[Greensboro]

Soccer flop

 

[Ransom Stoddard]

Good god, he tripped over the floor and RJ gets called for a foul. These refs must have decided to make sure there's no way we can stumble into a win.

 

[InDaAZ]

That foul against RJ is the worst call in the history of basketball…smh

 

[Illiniam1984]

There is no leader on this team right now. They will eventually have one but not this year. Give it a couple more recruiting classes.

 

[Flyin' Illini]

I guess that's why they call them FREE throws, amirite?

 

[IllinistuckinGopherland]

What's the status of Perrine? Will he play this year? Could we see him tonight in the anticipated blowout?

How exactly did you mean this?

 

[Redbull]

Pts on FT. NU 23. IL 3

 

[Gunner23]

You can track this back to the Penn State game post game presser.

Do you mean the one that happened between the UT game and the PSU game???

 

[Ransom Stoddard]

I guess that's why they call them FREE throws, amirite?

 

[WyattEarp]

Hawkins’s finally got someone with his shot fake. Only took 13 games

(And, 256 shot fakes.)

 

[jumpingjack]

Is Robbie Hummel sh1tposting on here or is it that obvious?
Decisive CoHawk -triple double machine
Indecisive CoHawk - massive liability.

 

[Eternal Optimist]

Man I feel for Underwood.

I don’t know. Why do players like Hawkins have such a long leash after so many bonehead plays/games?

 

[CDRUSN]

We could find ourselves in a B10 basement knife fight with Minny, considering this horrendous play is becoming our norm.
