Game Thread: Illinois at Rutgers

[Oldskoolkoach]

I think it would be fun to have live audio amongst everyone on here, but throw in reporters asking questions about strategies that loyalty coaches would implore.

30 turnovers and we are winning.

 

[Ryllini]

Domask is like an elite eagle scout out there.

So so so so so many great individual defensive moments today. That’s darn encouraging. Be solid and let’s get this win.

100%. Glad others have seen this. A lot of little things that make life so hard offensively for teams. Forcing bad angles on shots, help defense, using our bodies to be physical and slow down drivers, walling up. The list goes on.

Domask is "Koleking" RU right now.

 

[abchew2]

Interesting that they seem to be pressing us a bit less on inbounds right now with how successful it was

 

[The Galloping Ghost]

Outstanding defense on big Cliff.

 

[whatahack]

In the bonus already...hope we can make our FTs

Hawkins is a game changer... and for the Illini.

 

[ChiTown]

I think we’re going to average about 20 turnovers per game this year.

 

[FloridaMan]

CH really playing D on Omaryi. Now, withstand the inevitable run and get outta here!

[Loyalillini10]

I think it's a strategy against us.

That's a bold strategy, Cotton.

[FloridaMan]

Hawk's defense this half has been beautiful.

 

[PopChampaign]
