Game Thread: Illinois at Northwestern

[illinifanclassof17]

Bam is by far my favorite player on this year's roster. Insane motor and grit

 

[RollChief]

Boswell with the big time EDG energy

 

[madillini4]

Finish them.

 

[ImGonnaBeILL]

Boswell taking over.

 

[BBlock24]

Mirk is as tough as any player on the roster, but he is pale white, sweating bullets, and looks like Death Eating a Cracker.

Giving a great effort. Commendable.

Love seeing this fight in Boswell- and maybe a glimmer of Tomi getting it going. Some positives in this game... at this point- find a way to win no matter how ugly and move on.

 

[kyillinifan]

Keaton was fouled first by Reed

 

[DeeIL89]

Take care of the ball. Play smart. Don't let Reid steal the ball. We got this.

 

[FleetFeetIllini]

Surprised they didn’t call a foul on his steal

 

[chiefini]

Make your free throws, and we’ve got this.

 

[CDRUSN]

Have to finish this game through adversity, and not let the refs be an excuse or put the final call in their hands.

 

[PasadenaIllini]

Love our fan contingent in the building. You can definitely hear the Illini faithful during the broadcast.

 

[illiram]

The refs are doing a great job tonight

 

[IllinistrandedinHouston]

Refs keeping it between 6-8 Illini. If the refs win, and Illini win, I win.

 

[HailtotheChief]

Get up 8 and get a stop

 

[RollChief]

Bam is by far my favorite player on this year's roster. Insane motor and grit

Dribbling with one hand and pounding your chest with the other just fires you up

 

[RIP_Chief_2003]

THAT was our inbounds play after a time out? 2 players moved… that’s all…2!…

 

[BlabDunkAnd1]

That inbounds out of the time out was PATHETIC

 

[skyIdub]

Please run a good BLOB

 

[sacraig]

Up 11, I left to put my kids to bed, back to being up only 6. Ugh.

 

[aaeismacgychel]

I'm not sure how neither team is in the bonus yet. Wild.

 

[illiniguy24]

Ok team two tries at a BLOB play lol

 

[Indy Illini Fan]

We had a WHOLE TV timeout …

We jack around … Can’t get the ball in …

Have to BURN ANOTHER ONE !!!!!!!!

Figure it out !!!!!!!! For crying out loud …

10 F’ing coaches … Someone needs to figure the inbounds plays the F out and NOW !!!!!!!!!!

 

[Second place is 1st loser]

Go back up and tell them a story, then come back when the game is over. Read the tea leaves brother.

 

[Miles Leonard]

HUGE three from Tomi!
