I'm pretty sure I caught it too just from watching on TV.
Game Thread: Illinois vs Maryland

And I suspect the national press and tournament selection committee. How can a team that looked so dominant against Oregon and Penn St be playing this way two weeks later? Really hard to explain what we have seen since the Penn St win.

I know we had talked about it in football prior to this year but do we have a home court disadvantage. Krush seems to always be quiet and the crowd sluggish compared to when it is us vs the world on the road

My eyes are scarred.

Childish defense on that play from Morez. He has such a long way to go.
Totally dog-walked at home....
All layups… ALL LAYUPS… and traveling

Maryland is just a much better team. Maybe we’re coming back down to earth.
I hope BU doesn't use sickness as an excuse in the presser. He does say, "next man up." Keep that mentality because once the coach sounds like a victim, the players may just follow.

I can honestly say that given all of the different circumstances and the cumulative Maryland issues, this is the most sickening loss I’ve watched since Loyola.
Time to temper expectations for this team.
Sigh... This is a just burn the tape game and move on.

Again….
We aren't quite as good as we thought. That's a difficult thing to accept at this point, but the evidence speaks for itself.
It's not working for Morez with his light contests on their shots. He needs to go up stronger on both ends of the floor. Looking soft tonight.
