Game Thread: Illinois vs Houston

[skyIdub]

I like DMFW aggressiveness but he's got to make better decisions before he gets that deep.

 

[IlliniForceOne]

I know that it is early, but I think we match up well with this Houston team. If our shots fall, we will win this game.

Good steal DMW but play to your strengths that 2 TOs by him and one for Trent. Please put in Belo. Plus Jake be hitting today!

 

[schnaurt]

Let’s Go Boys!!!!

He’s not being aggressive. They’re giving him the three and he won’t shoot it. Let it fly.

Nice drive by him and kick out to CH for 3....he and AC could do that all day and be a big help for us.

 

[IllinistuckinGopherland]

He’s reluctant to shoot the 3. Hes had 3 wide open opps already. He needs to shoot.

Totally agree. Just meant I was glad to see him attempt to score there. Needs to shoot the open three also. Just hoping it was a change from him TO aggression, I guess.

Need Goode or Rj in for Monte. Got to make them pay for leaving us open 3s.

 

[PNWIllini]

Can Kofi get to 20 today. I heard it improves our chances of winning

Nice drive by him and kick out to CH for 3....he and AC could do that all day and be a big help for us.

Agreed. But him sticking a couple threes would be huge.

Foul on Belo!?!?

 

[NarrowJ]

Edwards seriously going to get bailed out with that call?!!! He couldn't have been more out of control.

 

[SouthFarmLlama]

How was that a foul!?!?!

 

[hiberto]

rebound!!!

 

[Epsilon]

Act much?

 

[Illini8420]

Omg rebound

 

[aaeismacgychel]

That's a really really really late foul call. No call originally, guy let's out a scream a full second afterwards and they blow it on that

 

[Ransom Stoddard]

I like this lineup

 

[IlliniForceOne]

It will be a long afternoon if we do not rebound the ball.

 

[madillini4]

GET THE BALL

 

[Cali05]

Awful lineup cmon

 

[Champaign88]

Going small against these guys is a terrible idea.

 

[Illini John]

They are owning us on the boards. Not even close.

 

[skyIdub]

FFS these offensive rebounds.....

 

[Pikeillinifan]

Rebounds????

 

[Ignatius Shang]

We have missed so many defensive rebounds!
