I know Wynter is still out there but time to pull our starters?

Now that Ayo has gotten his double-double.

Grandison for president!

Sorry if it’s been said already, but I need Kevin Harlan calling every Illinois game from now on

I hope BU empties the bench soon, and lets every young man who has worked so hard get a chance to play in an NCAA tournament game. May not be a lot of such opportunities going forward in upcoming games.

Would also rest the starters and avoid any late game injuries.

Empty the bench.

8 total fouls this half - so glad to be rid of BIG referees!

Illinois is very exciting this year!!! Must see TV..

 

[Mr. Roberts]

Love the balanced scoring and the 19 assists.

When we got it going, we are so fun to watch

There is something different about this team.. It really feels like we are watching a pro team.. just the way they go about the game.. They are treating this like a business now.. not just a game.. you can see it.

Donyell Marshall on radio said that it will not being traveling for Kofi next year. sorry Illinois fans.

Same was said on the TV broadcast.

Starters leaving with 6 turnovers....that is saving their best play when needed. Play defense like that and only 6 turns and I will stay quiet about 60% FF. (But they are 4-8 from the line...so that is a huge elephant).

Come on guys, get Lieb a bucket.

Great game boys. Thanks for not giving me a heart attack. Now we can enjoy 1.75 more days of basketball stress free!
