Game Thread: Illinois at Wisconsin

[GallopingGhost]

I think Rogers works all summer on FT and becomes better next year. It’s horrid

 

[D1959]

And here comes another disaster day from the free throw line

 

[Coop70]

I BET THE OVER!

 

[New Creation]

I didn’t know Jason Richardson is Ty’s cousin.

TSJ back on the floor with 2 fouls..

 

[Mr. Roberts]

We are undefeated when we have more assists than turnovers. 1 assist 3 turnovers so far.

 

[ILLINI IN NE]

Free cheese curds?

 

[Spacecity]

Wisconsin is always my least favorite team to play, their defense slows down the game soo much..

 

[FloridaMan]

Dain gotta get much stronger. Way too many turnovers when he turns to face up.

 

[TCTORNADO]

I BET THE OVER!

Was the OVER 50??

 

[GallopingGhost]

I BET THE OVER!

You fool

 

[spillini]

Not sure I like Shannon back in this early

 

[New Creation]

And here comes another disaster day from the free throw line

1-3. The wrong people shooting free throws. However. Wisky isn’t deep. So let’s pile up the fouls

 

[GallopingGhost]

We are undefeated when we have more assists than turnovers. 1 assist 3 turnovers so far.

But plenty of time to fix those numbers

 

[EyeoftheIllini]

Bardo saying Illinois most talented team in the conference. For those who say he never has anything good to say about us.

Bardo says plenty of good things about IL. I think what some on here object to is he also has the audacity to same some good things about the opponent.

 

[DeonThomas]

I may be a bit biased, but I feel like the refs are against us more than any team in the country and have been for a while lol. We get no favors on the road and we sure as !!!! get no favors at home.

Funny -- I haven't yet noticed the refs.

(My wife would tell you that I say this nearly every game I watch/attend. I argue that bad calls always even out over the course of a game/season.)

It's official we are not at the Kohl center. It's the local Ymca and we're playing 1 pt. Buckets. Is Rj. With us today? I haven't seen him in 1st 8 minutes.

 

[jumpingjack]

I feel like we're gonna go off in transition pretty shortly.
Also, not thrilled with the offensive movement in half-court but defensively looking pretty good. We'll crack this open soon.

 

[mikeyo]

RJ has been so far off on open looks for a few games now. Not even close.

Yeah, a few like the entire season. Dude's shooting 37% from the floor; 27% from 3.

It can't get any worse

 

[Illinifan47]

Not sure why we put TSJ back out there. Lot of standing around on that last possession. More ball movement with him on the bench right now. Feel like Brad forced him back on the court too soon for no reason

 

[TCTORNADO]

Free cheese Turds?

Fix it for you

 

[dbeverly26]

The upside here is that we’ve not seen a ton of dead balls, so the game will be over quickly

27 percent would be great compared to lately and they are not close.

 

[Turpin & Tate in 2008!]

We are undefeated when we have more assists than turnovers. 1 assist 3 turnovers so far.

Pretty difficult to get assists when you miss all your shots.

 

[HailtotheChief]

I want Epps to get more looks.
