Game Thread: Illinois at Ohio State

Maybe Kipper could guard Wesson better than GB

IllinistuckinGopherland · Mar 5, 2020

Wesson has eight points since his sixth (and seventh) fouls

Giorgi picks his own man and leaves the OSU player for a wide open 6 footer, then lays off Wesson for a 3.

Giorgi is trying to cover a lot of real estate.

Ayo with 21

That Trent 3 would have helped....

I feel for Trent. Woof.

His shots look good, just not dropping.

hoopsfan47 · Mar 5, 2020

Walker will shoot his 9th FF...coming off the bench. Why are we fouling him? That is all he can do.

IllinistuckinGopherland · Mar 5, 2020

Well, we won 5 on 8 in Madison, let’s do it again

Giorgi is also not a good defender.

kiwanegarris22 · Mar 5, 2020

Good look by Griff....darn.

Wesson about to eat.

kiwanegarris22 · Mar 5, 2020

Calm the nerves boys....

sully · Mar 5, 2020

come on Illini (down 2)

BlabDunkAnd1 · Mar 5, 2020

Ayo needs to be in

He's not a bad defender. Did a job on on Indiana.

Lexis20 · Mar 5, 2020

Call an effing TO Brad and get Giorgi and Alan out of the game

Deleted member 182960 · Mar 5, 2020

This lineup is a problem. Trent and Giorgi used to be able to score but not anymore

Whitmans Sampler · Mar 5, 2020

Terrible lineup out there

illiniguy24 · Mar 5, 2020

Man we are hurting ourselves. Griffin having a awful game. Giorgi just a liability on defense. Have to keep Kofi in and work through him and Ayo.

azillini1 · Mar 5, 2020

Not playing well.. few steals and the very Poor rebounding. We need Kofi to step up and contribute (if he can get off the bench)

3DegreeIllini · Mar 5, 2020

I’m obviously glad to have an Ayo. But boy would it be nice to have ANY other reliable option.

SuperMetroid · Mar 5, 2020

Threes just not falling right now. Need to roll with Kofi and Ayo the rest of the way

WizardBill · Mar 5, 2020

Gotta have Kofi back. No one else can guard a big.

kiwanegarris22 · Mar 5, 2020

Staying optimistic, but.......

Based on the way the NET formula works, I guess we may move up to #19 with a tight loss at highly-regarded OSU.
