Game Thread: Illinois vs Drexel

[Deleted member 11228]

Pretty sure this Drexel team wouldn't have won a single game in the Big 10.

Maybe beat Nebraska once but probably below Nebraska overall.

Well, Nebraska 50 spots ahead of them on KenPom, and worst BT team in those rankings IIRC.

Shades of the NC A&T game.

God I hate teams that run the shot clock just to keep the score low.

I think Illini are gonna win this one.

The only way Drexel could win this game was to get crazy hot from 3. They didn't; they haven't; they can't now - too late.

You're right, but we did this same thing to Minnesota twice, Northwestern (2nd half) and Michigan.

 

[OrangeNBrood]

Damn y'all, this is turning into the type of beatdown we would give to a team like Michigan.

I love seeing Kofi assert himself. But, honest question, isn't that an offensive foul when he clears out his defender like that? Because it sure looks like one to my untrained eye.

No, it's a foul on the defender Check the '05 Championship game where they started enforcing the new rule.

Want to see some minutes for Hawkins and/or BBV. Need to see what we have behind Kofi and Giorgi if they both get in foul trouble later on in the bracket.

I’m a little torn... I’m glad Illinois is winning, but I had Drexel as the National Champion in my “mascot vs. mascot bracket.”

 

[Miles Leonard]

Early crisis averted. We’re doing exactly what we should do against an extremely overmatched opponent.

Dragons are OP for sure. Only Rutgers stands a chance against them.

Well done, sir. maybe Spartans but they're currently riven by dissension.

 

[Mr. Roberts]

OK - let's get some tick for Hawkins.

 

[Illini_Jack]

He just took a big step out of bounds

 

[WeWillWhen]

Man, if Drexel can't hit a 3 pointer without a defender within 20 feet . . .

 

[JFGsCoffeeMug]

Haha, heard DMW ask "where you going?" right before Drexel stepped out of bounds.

 

[Mr. Roberts]

OK - let's get some tick for Hawkins.

OK- I guess all I needed to do was ask.
