Game Thread: Illinois vs Alabama

[ILLFAN67]

Alabama whines after every call!! We need to run some offense no easy shots this half except on turnovers.

 

[Champaign88]

Petrovic’s quickness on defense would be helpful here to try to contain some of their penetration.

 

[LouHenson]

So since our offense looked so much better with Petro in - why not now?

 

[blife]

need to see a couple balls go through the hoop.

 

[so illini]

As poorly we are shooting this half it’s amazing we are only down by 4

 

[UCantHideYer]

Bama definitely out fouling us. That foul differential likely to get the refs whistling some ghost or light ones on us. Might as well go ahead and foul hard.

 

[TheodoreRex]

I feel like if we ran any offense at all, other than chuck 3's, we'd be handling them right now. Their defense is so undisciplined and just not good.

 

[pruman91]

oats and players are a bunch of crying little wussies.................they act like they never foul.........I sure hope we hit our FT's tonight cause we will be shooting a ton down the stretch..........

 

[madillini4]

Awful rebounding. Inexcusable.

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Ben just needs to make that shot

 

[BashCtIllini]

Humrichous has got to make a damn shot

 

[Epsilon]

Where are we for rebounding? Wth

 

[LurkerintheOpen]

he went 3-6 from 3 against this very team last year

What's he at tonight?

 

[hoopsfan47]

Not much Illini will or confidence out there now.

 

[Coop70]

Humrichous has got to make a damn shot

Or sit maybe?

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

Humbrickhouse is back.

 

[PasadenaIllini]

Ben H. missing every important 3 pointer he takes.

 

[New Creation]

Why is BEN shooting all of the three’s. Stop chucking 3s!

 

[aaeismacgychel]

YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO GIVE THE PLAYER THAT TIMEOUT. THE RULE WAS CHANGED

 

[IlliniwekKDR]

Did they bring back the flying out of bounds timeout???

 

[Epsilon]

Did he call TO mid air?

 

[BrimfieldBomber]

Little League cronyism reffing

 

[illiniguy24]

I get so frustrated with these games that have nba 3 point lines and everyone starts shooting 35 footers

 

[Crossbow]

Alabama stacking up fouls. Time to drive it inside.

 

[Naborman88]

Letting them get too far away?
