Game Thread: Illinois vs Indiana

[sacraig]

No disagreement there. I have more of a problem with their main barstool guys than the interns who run the college accounts.

Long live (original) Deadspin.

No snarky sports/culture site will ever match the Hater's Guide to the Williams-Sonoma Catalog.

EDIT: I just learned of Defector, which is run by the former Deadspin staff. They still do the guide: https://defector.com/the-2022-haters-guide-to-the-williams-sonoma-catalog

This is a better gif for Coleman /s

Coleman is my guy.
He plays for my team.
Go, Illini

Drew's Hater's Guide to the Williams-Sonoma Catalog and many other blog posts still live on at Defector. Absolutely worth the subscription.

I’m glad Jim Jackson is doing the Mich St/Rutgers game. Not a big fan.

MSU is really playing a hell of a 2nd half btw. Just dominating a pretty good Rutgers team. Let's similarly smother Indiana tonight.

Agree. Should always be 2:15 between tip times -- 5:30 and 7:45 tonight.

they just said the tip off of our game was pushed back , but I missed the time.....

 

[blackdog]

They brought out some WWE wrestler to give a hype speech and add for when they come to town in Feb. I've never been more ready

 

[Mr. Roberts]

Rutgers calls TO down 16 with 1:14 left. Ugh.

Drawing up the 17 point play obviously

I hate Indiana. That's all. After what happened with our football team and that reversed TD, this is payback.

 

[aaeismacgychel]

I have never understood these down by double digits with less than a minute left timeouts. There's no practical teaching moment that happens in that timeout. Just get off the court and go home.

 

[Mr. Roberts]

MD up 8.. We win tonight, we just might find ourselves in second place.

Benetti starts off the broadcast calling this one of the great rivalries in college basketball. Just out here subtweeting the Hoosiers lol.

 

[hiberto]

good energy so far

 

[Illini8420]

Nice job Sencire!

 

[logjam]

Great move by Harris to not try and dunk...

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Interesting they called Illinois ball and no Indiana foul there. Looked like either an Indiana foul (which it was) or out on Illinois. Bizarre start to the game

 

[RabidDawgClassic]

HULK SMASH HOOSIERS!!!

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Great take by TSJ. A few Hoosiers suffering from windburn from the blowby

Fox sports app is 100% down

Offensive rebounding non-existent for us so far
