Game Thread: Illinois at Ohio State

[Fighter of the Nightman]

Without fail, if we are ever up 5, we will miss an open shot and the other team will score, lol. Opening up a 7-point lead instead turns into a one possession game.

OSU does not look good, clean it up and we can build a lead.

I know Brad's getting to "that age", but his hair has thinned a lot since he came to Champaign.

Much better looking shooting motion on those free throws for Ty than he had earlier in the season

 

[WizardBill]

Might have been the ugliest shot I’ve seen this season!

to his credit, so has his waist line

 

[Fighter of the Nightman]

I will say, there’s something about playing on CBS. So nostalgic.

 

[WizardBill]

MM needs to make that

 

[New Creation]

That didn’t look like a foul by MM

 

[Ransom Stoddard]

That was all ball, and I bet CBS won't show it again.

 

[HailtotheChief]

Can we just once get off to a hot start. Can’t keep doing this

 

[FeelYourPaign]

We do not look like we've embraced the"business trip" mentality

 

[aaeismacgychel]

If we shot high quality shots like Penn State, we'd have about 25pts right now instead of 9. Can't really ask for better quality shots

 

[Jimbo]

We’re doing a great job of going over the screens and not giving up 3 pointers. I like that.

 

[FreshlySqueezed]

That was all ball, and I bet CBS won't show it again.

Broadcasts constantly protect the referees.

 

[Manual3for4peat]

A lot to play for after last night. How do we continually come out so flat?

 

[SaintLIllini]

why do we always start bad

 

[CleverHandle1]

They're sluggish. Here we go.

 

[Ransom Stoddard]

It's those doggoned 11am starts.

[Jimbo]

OSU gaining confidence,

Got him on the head with his forearm, which the ref pointed to, and they did show it again.

 

[Battle89]

Foot in the protected zone too. The quality of referees is just embarrassing.

 

[PrideOfGreenSt]

This team has so many problems

 

[IlliniForceOne]

It’s been nearly 6 years. Mine has too

 

[Goillinikobd]

Make up call, OSU had one foot in the arc on that charge

 

[Fighter of the Nightman]

It’s not even missing it, how are our open shots SO off?? Lol
