Game Thread: Illinois vs Iowa

What the f is a Sanforth

I didn’t think we’d see the bad Illini team today.

 

[IlliniForceOne]

I…I just don’t see how you come out this flat in a game this important. Are we tight? Nervous?

 

[dbeverly26]

I’m actually more upset with our D right now, just making awful decisions out there

 

[Bigtex]

Kofi has forgotten he can pass out

 

[GrayGhost77]

Seems like we have regressed over the past 8 games or so, both offensively and defensively. Not sure why, but it's concerning.

 

[hiberto]

all these nobodies on Iowa doing the scoring

 

[BTYBILL]

Man I swear this happens every game

Anybody have any more questions about why some were worried after the Penn St game?

 

[SuperMetroid]

So has their manager made a shot yet? Cause everyone else has. WTF

 

[Hopingfor500]

A lot of minutes for the freshman, which is questionable in a game of this magnitude.

 

[Butters]

Oh look, the other team is on a huge run and we aren't scoring at all, how unusual...

 

[skyIdub]

So they're just going to hit every shot they throw up. Great.

13/15-0+ opposition runs are the story of this season. This one, in particular, may cost this team a B10 title.

 

[grantlab]

Brad reverted from the strategy of calling a timeout when we’re down 20 to only down 13

 

[bjp84]

Can you say Ohio St. game all over again…..We do this way too often, especially at home.

 

[CubsIlliniFan]

We are so desperate for a guy who can drive and draw fouls.

 

[mydosburns]

13-0 run is not acceptable

 

[illiniguy24]

Defense has really fallen off these past 4min

4 weeks*

 

[IllinistuckinGopherland]

Well we certainly can’t blame the refs at this point.

 

[IlliniFandom]

Welp, it's in their hands. If they want it, they better step up because this won't do..just won't do

 

[KCBassin]

Illini def is 100% dependent on the shots falling. When shots don't fall defense is terrible. Troubling signs all over the place.

 

[DICKnaggie]

We just don't seem to have any continuity. Roller coaster it is...

 

[DB11Headband]

Playing guys for 2-3 minute increments leads to droughts. Doesn’t allow any sort of rhythm to be generated. Rotation pattern is the difference
