Game Thread: Illinois at Rutgers

[EyeoftheIllini]

This is where we see what Illini are made of.

Rutgers has exposed us. We cant get open looks, no hustle, no shooters and no killer instinct and now game over

Yeah right. Stop the lies.

 

[BRucks]

Getting out hustled

 

[skyIdub]

Tale of two halves. Came to play in the first....laying down in the second.

 

[CurbeloYourEnthusiasm]

We are really soft. This is disappointing.

 

[Sizzler22]

Getting out played, pathetic.

 

[thehass]

I'm really starting to dislike Rutgers. They are just out toughing us now. Time to get our act together.

 

[azillini1]

We need Curbelo back in. Miller is not contributing for us now.

Other than those things we're all good.

I almost never blame the refs but WTF is with the flop fest???

 

[RoosterCockburn40]

Rutgers has shot 14-22 from the line. Illinois 5-8.

Have to play soft when every time Mulcahy gets touched he gets a foul

 

[WeWillWhen]

I thought having no fans in the arenas would reduce the officials’ home bias. I was wrong.

 

[EyeoftheIllini]

Officiating not good, but Illini getting out hustled and out played. Want to be a top 10 team need to play like one.

 

[BlueLeader]

Rutgers isn't very good. We need to give a !!!! to win though.

 

[1LL1NO1S]

I just see a bunch of Rutgers players flopping and the refs eating it up.

 

[azillini1]

Rutgers outplaying us in 2nd half on boards and around the rim.

 

[RockfordIllini]

Feels like Mizzou redux with the foul fest. Only down six and still lots of time to turn it around.

 

[CurbeloYourEnthusiasm]

Rutgers is winning the possession game thru hustle. Offensive rebounds are 13-7, and Turnovers are 12-9. Hard to win games when you give up those extra possessions

 

[LostinNebraska]

Miller will break through at some point this year but today is not the day

 

[CDRUSN]

Miller kills us every time he is in. Lost on defense, and clueless on offense.

 

[Keisersose]

This is awful.

this short ref Larry whatever always kills us. He’s the one that got in Groces face.

 

[CubsIlliniFan]

Yeah right. Stop the lies.

Watch the game, where are our shooters? No killer instinct with a 10 point lead, the goofy white kid completely out hustling us and they have shooters. Where is this 4 stat AceWolf? Non existent. Monte completely smoked this game. We arent winning the 50 50 balls.

 

[thehass]

Were we told not to rebound and defend?

 

[SuperintendentChalmers]

We sure do miss Andres Feliz.
