Game Thread: Illinois at Oregon

[so illini]

BOSWELL!!!!!

Man we needed that

 

[Rusty]

started 0-7 from 3
now 13-26

 

[DB11Headband]

Keep the pedal down

 

[Flyin' Illini]

Oregon is making some incredibly difficult shots to stay in the game. Then again, we are raining threes from way beyond the arc, so I guess that evens out.

 

[FloridaMan]

Don't get extra points for having unused fouls at the end of the game. KJ needs to be back in with under 10 to go.

 

[abchew2]

Reaching the point where we have blown some really good leads. Real important 5 minutes here to change that narrative

 

[ILL-Intentions]

You knew they were gonna punch back. Gotta match the defensive intensity and take care of the ball.

 

[JSpence]

I guess we're only to get the obvious shooting fouls. Oh well. Shrug it off and don't slow down. Be the better team.

 

[Fighting I 95]

Nothing would be worse than getting up 23 at Oregon just to piss it away and lose. STOMP ON THEIR THROATS!!!

We cant let them back in this anymore than we have.

 

[FreshlySqueezed]

Their bench has equaled our bench now and it's our starters who are outperforming them.

 

[SkyysNotFalling]

can’t believe I’m saying this but let Hum KJ & Kylan cook

 

[LoveLovie]

Hugeeee threes. Even with the turnover they put themselves in a spot to get going again with a solid lead

 

[Naborman88]

How long till BU puts KJ back in?

 

[FoundersClub]

Need a little 5-0+ run here to stretch it back to 20 and they will fold over.

 

[grantlab]

Man, this has been fun!!

 

[illiram]

 

[biglug58]

Get KJ back in soon, keep this lead in double-digits.

Get Ben in soon!

 

[KyBourbon]

Cobra Kai no mercy! Finish strong.

 

[NarrowJ]

The tripping foul was the most ignorant thing I've seen this year so far

 

[Second place is 1st loser]

Don't get extra points for having unused fouls at the end of the game. KJ needs to be back in with under 10 to go.

He can't foul out at the 6 minute mark either. If he picks up #4 too soon, he's going to have to play ridiculously carefully on D. That's not good.

 

[FloridaMan]

Will we ever get a crew of zebras that are not complete sh@theels

Nope. Been waiting 45+ years

 

[DeeIL89]

Ben you beauty!

 

[Illini in Italy]

BFH en fuego!

 

[IllinoisGrad0609]

BEN ON FIRE! NEVER A DOUBT! (I'm such a liar...)

 

[OrangeBlue98]

Such a great possession. Pick and roll, draw two defenders, find an open shooter, drain a 3. So good.
