Game Thread: Illinois vs Kentucky

[blife]

They could not look less mentally prepared to play this game

 

[pweo]

Have all of our turnovers been live ball too? Gross

 

[WizardBill]

Well, we’ve got ‘em right where we want them!

They are going to be over confident in the second half and they think we are inept!

 

[BigE]

EIGHT FREAKING TURNOVERS??? WHAT?

Going to happen when we have a careless point guard!

 

[aaeismacgychel]

We're getting good shots? Really?

 

[Amelot]

LOL....might be the worst mid-game interview ever,

My friend just asked who I thought would win. I told him there is no way to predict as the Illini are either Jekyll of Hyde. Well, it did not take long to learn who showed.

Its like this team can't stay focused for 2 games in a row.. They have good games and then read the headlines.. and just think teams are going to lay down.. why why why? It really starts with KJ on the court and being so passive.. Where is the FIRE...??

They play scared at the slightest provocation

 

[GetAWin]

This seems to be a team that cannot handle success... they looked fantastic Friday and today....

I'll admit, made me laugh.

 

[PopChampaign]

Kentucky did their homework, they’re playing the perfect defense to give us trouble.

 

[BBlock24]

They beat Florida and Duke lol

I know, I’m talking about how much success those other two have had all season.

 

[aaeismacgychel]

If we didn't have Tomi we might be down 30

 

[FoundersClub]

Need a push right here.

 

[ginabackes00]

Riley not adjusting to the length of KY

 

[IllinistrandedinHouston]

Maybe we took "OUR" best punch, and now we can come back. Maybe??????

 

[TheodoreRex]

[punchabove33]

[JFGsCoffeeMug]

Why is KJ launching deep 3s early in the shot clock?

 

[Epsilon]

Yes let’s chuck more 3s
