Part of it is how ridiculous college basketball is. Indiana was down 10 with 1:50 to go and managed to make that last 20 minutes.

clock doesn't stop after made fg in the first half
I'm with you. Literally happens every time we have an ESPN game
If we lose a key instate player need to equalize with out of state. Thought BBV would be somewhat close to Liddell. Curbello a better get than the Duke/Whitney Young player.

At the time we gave up the ball about 3 or 4 times in a row.

A bit off topic - how in the H E double hockey sticks is Duke even being considered as the first 4 out? Am i missing something? 11-10 team?

Launching into his Flying Illini schtick, for the millionth time, while Grandison drives for a beautiful layup...no comment, just more schtick. Ugh.
That Vitale is calling the game makes us relevant?

Half-time tally of Dickie V-isms (full disclosure I may have missed a couple)
Special - 4
Flyin' Illini - 2 (but one of them was naming the top 6 players on that squad)
Baby - at least 4
So far no "Diaper Dandy" or "Unbelievable" but we have a full half of hoops to go.

Yea. Lunardi is an idiot
You know why. There is no justification for them being in the running.

Hopefully they will replay the entire game on ESPNU tomorrow as they have done with others of ours.

A couple missed close shots and 4 free throws. The refs missed a couple of call against them. Need Trent to hit his stride.
Umm, yes. ESPN gives him big games.Launching into his Flying Illini schtick, for the millionth time, while Grandison drives for a beautiful layup...no comment, just more schtick. Ugh.

I'm not sure if I'm happy that we shot 62% or unhappy that we shot 62% and are only up 4.

Equal parts idiot and intelligent: Illinois as a 1....intelligent...Duke...not so much
By the way, Dick Vitale used to be entertaining (sort of). Now, even though he loves the Illini, I find him more tedious and obnoxious. Sure, he knows college basketball (and obviously CBB history) way better than I do, but he just annoys me. Stories that are completely irrelevant and not particularly interesting. Talk about the game you are announcing, PLEASE!
He’s better with a crowd. He gets into it and plays off their energy.
