Game Thread: Illinois vs Duquesne

[chiefini]

Remember when TSJ wasn't a first-team All-American? Wild

At half-time, Kenny Johnson said TSJ was the third best player in the tournament.

Well Hronsky can put that on his highlight reel. Duquesne has that for them today.

I want to see some DGL

 

[Second place is 1st loser]

I’m worried this game has been too easy.

Are you serious? Is this the whole porridge too hot, porridge too cold type of thought process?

We don't want to win by 1, we don't want to win by 30.....15 is just right?

 

[LFOD]

Sorely disappointed we won’t hang a hunnert on ‘em.

Disenchanted with the uniform choice.

Otherwise, I’m good.

Don’t give up on that hunnert just yet…

 

[CDRUSN]

With this style of play, we should have the top players in the portal beating down our doors to get in on this sweet action next year.

 

[Rusty]

All about staying healthy now.

I’m worried this game has been too easy.

[LvilleILL]

I may be drunk on fizzy water....and I know he's our player.....but the last guy I watched that made me literally say "wow" out loud was Ja Morant.

Let's hang a 100 spot in the Big Dance. Keep playing hard.

 

[Illini in Indiana]

What a nice game to sit back and enjoy our team do their thing. Oh yeah TSJ is special !!

Get your drink, smoke, .... and sit back and enjoy.

 

[Doogie94]

95% of CBB fans are bored out of their mind ... And then there is all of us ...

We're the only ones still watching the Illini! Everyone else is looking to see if Rick Barnes can, yet again, pull defeat from the jaws of victory!

 

[DB11Headband]

Party at DB's ??? Say no more ...

Door’s always open

 

[GallopingGhost]

Keep pushing!!

 

[TheodoreRex]

We are straight whooping that A$$ right now. And honestly, Duquesne has hit some tough shots against us. That's the crazy part.

 

[Mr. Roberts]

Time for another barley pop.

 

[sacraig]

Love you all man.

This program is officially fully back

 

[Flyin' Illini]

They travel very, very well. I am just hoping there are enough alumni in the area to offset that.

And we don't? We have essentially 1.5x the enrollment as ISU and probably much easier travel to the East Coast (direct from Chicago) for most people. I see it being even at worst, unless UConn fans are afraid to play us and rooting for Iowa St.

 

[Illini-Rule]

Why would Iowa St. have a better crowd than us?

Because ISU is only a couple hours away from Omaha

 

[GallopingGhost]

Thank you thank you thank you for making this stress free so far, boys

 

[The Galloping Ghost]

It's hilarious that Tennessee is having to deal with Texas while we are just having an easy practice right now. Bracket luck is wild.

 

[Illini2010-11]

This is the least stressful tournament win since the first round a couple years ago. Who would have thought it meant a trip to the S16!!!

 

[IlliniCaboose]

Would love to see DGL getting the minutes Harmon's getting tonight
