Game Thread: Illinois at Northwestern

[NarrowJ]

Now its basically a 5 minute game

More of a toss up

Hate this

 

[NashvILLe05]

Who is going to step up? KJ can’t do everything. Literally a bunch of 2 and 3 star inbreds outplaying us.

 

[CDRUSN]

I think we pull it together and win in OT. Can't play as bad as that last 10 minutes.

 

[ChiIllini75]

This should never have been close enough for OT. We let the lead disappear by not reacting to the stretch where Ben was getting repeatedly cooked. KB not scoring is rough but at least whoever he has guarded has been shut down. Even Barnhizer has been doing his damage after switches.

 

[Ryllini]

What an electric game thread! It’s only December 6th

 

[skyIdub]

Will Riley dominates the last 7 minutes of first half.......nothing in the second half.

This is inexcusable.

 

[New Creation]

Brad getting outcoached right now... KJ keeping us in this by himself right now

 

[JSpence]

If they go small, WE GO DRE. Not Hummer. Come on.

 

[FloridaMan]

Moving screen after moving screen allowed by NW. Maddening

 

[Oracle21]

If we win I really hope Underwood isn’t all “what a gutty road win guys rah rah rah”. The level needs to be better.

We have way too much talent to play this badly

 

[PasadenaIllini]

Very frustrated with Brad right now.

 

[Iamgroot]

Why is Ben in there

 

[FoundersClub]

Ben gives up 2

Ben misses 3

Repeat

 

[JSpence]

This is almost officially "the Humrichous game". What the heck.

 

[Nuke Dukem]

Why is Morez not on the floor?

 

[SuperMetroid]

Why is he still out there?

 

[JSpence]

Very frustrated with Brad right now.

You don't like the 4-on-5 approach on the road??

 

[ILL-Intentions]

I told myself I wouldn’t get in on the sit Ben train but…..

 

[CDRUSN]

Please Brad, get Ben outta this game and give us a chance to win.

 

[skyIdub]

This is baffling. Ben can't guard and can't make a shot. This is...something.

 

[BashCtIllini]

Can someone send Underwood a certified letter letting him know that Humrichous cannot play defense. He is not athletic enough. When he's 1-8 from 3, he should not be in the game.

 

[Flyin' Illini]

They are absolutely abusing Humrichous.

 

[skyIdub]

I told myself I wouldn’t get in on the sit Ben train but…..

Ummm....yeah...there's no more seats available.

 

[hiberto]

BU is going to have some questions to answer after this one

 

[PopChampaign]

Finally Morez
