Game Thread: Illinois vs Maryland

[steveinspringfield]

Loyola could beat this version of the Illini.

Easily.

Keep this in perspective guys. We’re going through a bad stretch, we’re young and a relatively brand new team. We can make a March run.

Same post after every crap game. Guys it’s only November it’s only December it’s only January.

We are more than halfway through the season and March is five weeks away.

A team this inconsistent will not win six in a row.

Sure hope everyone has the flu, strep, mono, and norovirus because everyone looks sick

We have a different excuse every game lately.

 

[SuperMetroid]

You mean giving someone a full body cavity search is against the rules?

 

[illiniguy24]

F this. I don’t care what the circumstances have been. 13-6 and 5-4 with this team is just sad.

What the hell happened to our shooting after the Oregon game

 

[Ryllini]

Live look at tonight's performance

 

[Homecoming 2019]

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.

30-0 run against UCONN takes the cake

Like I said they don’t miss layups

 

[azillini1]

Morez looks like a high school player out there tonight. He just can't do anything tonight including getting even 1 rebound.

 

[Illiniam1984]

Is the basketball program that far in the dumps?

 

[LoveLovie]

Thisi is beyond Ivisic being out. The guards are getting cooked

 

[Oldskoolkoach]

Well, thanks for the great birthday present boys. I'm out.

 

[New Creation]

We are a very bad team with Booth in the game.

 

[Retro62]

I don’t want to go to work tomorrow…just embarrassed

 

[Wazababybrucedouglaskid]

Embarrassing

 

[PopChampaign]

So we have the worst 3pt shooting % in the B1G now?

 

[BashCtIllini]

we look like boys playing men

 

[Fighter of the Nightman]

We literally look 2019-level bad.

 

[CleverHandle1]

DGL is the only person who looks like he actually wants to be here tonight, to be honest.

Maybe he should start for KB against NU?

 

[OrangeKrush1981]

We're ahead by a hair in the battle of three-point shooting percentage tonight: Illini 5/25 (20%) -- Terps 2/11 (18.2%). Let's go!

 

[BoiseBaller]

I think it's time to adjust expectations. This looks like an 8/9 seed first weekend exit team to me.

 

[RML]

Gotta just jack 3's from here and pray.

 

[NashvILLe05]

Would love to hear what the insiders have to say about this abomination. Play with some f*cking pride in the jersey or don’t wear it!

 

[IlliniInIndy85]

There’s something different about the way other teams shoot layups vs the way we shoot layups. We miss or get blocked a lot. We foul and never block other teams

 

[LarryGotFouled]

I’m not even mad at this point. We’re going to be a 7 seed and insanely dangerous.
