Huge

 

[IlliniKid]

Of course they make a three

 

[GoIllini40]

Illinois just can't defend the 3. It's just so awful.

Great hustle play by Hill and great steal by Abrams. Now make free throws.

 

[aluma]

We get that steal and then Abrams doesn't step up on the 3 haha.

 

[GortTheRobot]

Hit foul shots...please.

 

[hermie1985]

Comes down to free throws

 

[DoctorOrange]

How does that 3 go in?

 

[illini8507]

[SuperMetroid]

[JudsonFTS]

Tracy is our leader. The sooner Malc does
His thing off the ball instead of off the dribble the
Better.

How does that 3 go in?

Who knows. That guy is a horrible three point shooter.

 

[GortTheRobot]

Illinois just can't defend the 3. It's just so awful.

While I agree, that guy was like 0 for 7 or something before that. Still should have closed though.

Why does it always seem like teams can't miss deep threes against us when it's close? Why can't we just win one without the stress.
