Game Thread: Illinois vs Duke

[Fly Illini Fly!]

He's really good... I understand, I recognize, I acknowledge... but FOX please don't make this broadcast with Flagg like our Nebby game in football with Raiola

 

[AndyKaufmanstutor]

Who do you think will guard the kid from Duke whose name we don’t want to mention? If he’s tearing us up, does Brad the other well-known form of defense known as a zone (not sure if BU has heard of it).

Too late...although that worked out pretty well for us. Here's hoping...

Would of been nice to see Morez play this game since he played with Flagg on the under 18 team last year.

DGL better get starters minutes tonight. I was hoping he’d get rewarded with the start. But I guess having him and Will come in off the bench for a burst of energy could be nice.

 

[JJHUI79]

I've started applying bourbon for courage to watch the game. I-L-L I-N-I, lets GOOOOO!

Similar here - pass some more Maker's!

Well here in Iowa, they are running High School Wrestling State Championships until 10pm on FOX, can't make this up. UGH

They aren't going to mention the Illini on Fox until way after 10pm. UGH

Can we keep it within 10?

We have so far.

 

[OptimistOrange]

Illini band didn't travel to the game?

 

[blife]

It's been a long time since I've come into a game with no expectations of winning. Just hoping we play well and what happens happens but that's it.

 

[PasadenaIllini]

Hamer is our defensive coach. This means that we will not play an effective zone.

 

[Jimbo]

Feeding my gambling addiction, i need KJ over 4 assists and Knueppel over 19.5 pts + reb+assists. Sounds easy.

 

[SkyysNotFalling]

Am I the only one who is sick of hearing about Cooper Flagg?

Yes but he’s also reallyyyyyy good.

No chance that hits!

Take a drink every time they say "Cooper Flagg". Just make sure it's water.

Dude, I'll be wrecked and I do that well enough on my own without drinking games.

 

[TheodoreRex]

I can't remember the last game I went into already feeling this defeated... Pretty much just expecting to get blown out as self-preservation.

My guy DGL with no Brad love.
