Game Thread: Illinois vs Austin Peay

[skyIdub]

Is "BU" going to rip a mask off to reveal John Groce? Like Mission Impossible? Have we been had?

 

[CoalCity]

Underwood has been mostly silent, garbage cans be warned

Haha great minds think alike!

 

[skyIdub]

Oh look! A FG!

 

[JFGsCoffeeMug]

AP is elite at forcing turnovers (#5 in the nation). We're seeing why.

 

[skyIdub]

So if I have our game plan right, we should out score them 77-30 in the second half?

 

[katytxillini]

Austin Peay learned a lot earlier in this game that you can run thru and reach thru the offensive player. Maybe we are adjusting to that now.

 

[Trakis]

how in the world is this game tied?

Edit: nvm.

 

[CoalCity]

Kip got fouled harder than the Alstork foul last game. No call

 

[JFGsCoffeeMug]

We're getting outplayed.

 

[CoalCity]

Pass the ball Kipper

 

[hoopsfan47]

A spark!!

 

[JFGsCoffeeMug]

Nice steal by Lucas.

 

[GallopingGhost]

And here I thought it was going to be a nice pleasant evening and a good game of basketball.

 

[hoopsfan47]

Off rebound and put back....steal...drive....foul. All good things...followed by missed FF. Too good to be true I guess.

the trash cans are getting nervous

 

[JFGsCoffeeMug]

AP with 8 steals already. Whoa.

 

[BananaShampoo]

Methinks the AP coach used the Vegas line and the 87 game as motivation.

Is it just me or does the play by play leave something to be desired. She rarely says who the Illini player is that made the shot, rebound, foul etc.

Ha...I wish I was drinking...I am all out.

This game is brutal right now.

Halftime errand run :thumb:

 

[skyIdub]

I noticed Black laughing and smiling on the bench after Frazier got lit up by J. Walker.

Two games straight in our house we come out lazy and distracted. I'm changing the whole lineup next game. This is stupid.

She hasn’t had much to work with

 

[JFGsCoffeeMug]

15th turnover off the travel by Alstork. Whomp whomp.

 

[bombayIllini]

Based on the first half ..............................long way to go.

 

[MoCoMdIllini]

After more than half of the first half in scoring droughts we're lucky to be down just 2 at the half.

 

[Halloweenie]

Mr obvious here....one the worst first halves in the last 40 years... particularly against a lower level team
