Game Thread: Illinois vs Arkansas

[Nuke Dukem]

MM is cooked, time to replace him with Rodgers. you really had your chances

Or Goode

 

[logjam]

Mayer needs a strong finish. Need him to knock down a couple shots

Needs a monster..

 

[hooraybeer]

this team looks ready to be done, sad. oh what could have been?

see you all in the off-season

 

[walzon]

I think we need a real rebuild....dainja is just not gonna cut it, he has majorly regressed

 

[HailtotheChief]

First four minutes and made up 2 points. Those two careless turnovers really hurt, it's about time to play Goode over Mayer today. He doesn't make silly errors and has been our best shooter lately

 

[FreshlySqueezed]

When do we start blaming the captain of this ship

Not this year. Shot quality was good all year. The captain can't make shots.

You maybe can blame his roster construction and overcorrection to more athleticism and length but you can't blame him for missing shots and taking bad ones.

 

[Second place is 1st loser]

Not sure Mayer can be in this one any longer

 

[Flyin' Illini]

Rodgers for mayer please

That's one campaign I can get behind.

 

[Oldskoolkoach]

 

[TentakilRex]

Both teams today

 

[Dragons89]

Let’s go!

 

[ejam21]

welcome to the defensive in Mayer...good play

 

[bergd91]

Rj. Has hit like 5 3's all year. Ya boy, ke3p shooting

 

[Jimbo]

Great play by Mayer. There we go

 

[coachingillini]

Why is Mayer still out there?

 

[IlliniForceOne]

How in the world are we only down 5.

 

[aaeismacgychel]

How about that? Mayer showing some effort, creates the fast break and a 3pt swing. There we go

 

[Chad Fleck]

Mayer with his best defense, get beat and then block it from behind.

Somehow, down by 5. Let's steal one, just for funsies.

 

[grantlab]

Shannon playing hard. I appreciate that.

 

[Flyin' Illini]

We're so lucky to be playing Arkansas right now and not any other team in the 9-13 range.

 

[Jimbo]

If princeton beats arizona my brackets are toast.

 

[IlliniForceOne]

Do we have an offensive rebound today?

 

[azillini1]

TSJ and Hawk have 23 of our 36 points. And Goode with 6. Rest of team not contributing.

 

[Ransom Stoddard]

Walsh getting away with a lot of contact there.

 

[Epsilon]

Offensive goal tending?
