Agree, but taking a 30 foot shot with 10 seconds on the shot clock wasn't smart. They seemed to get getting into a good rhythm until that. Has to play within the offense.

Not close enough.
Gophers playing only 7 has the refs being sympathetic & swallowing the whistles.
When Tomi puts the ball on the floor in traffic, nothing good ever happens. He is regaining his form from last year, but the guards need to know to only throw him high passes in the paint. Very glad to see he is progressing very well and has put his early season struggles mostly behind him.
Blown calls with a 4 pt swing towards Minnesota. Missed a foul on them when Mirk was hammered and then the obvious offensive push off by the Minnesota player on the break. Just ridiculous...another clown show.

Amazing! Enjoy the game!
This D aint it. Better lock down and not let this team feel comfortable.
Smart play by Kylan. He's bringing the effort today
BIG Z!!!!! That's what we need!

WTF is up with our home crowd? I’m not even asking for a drunk party vibe like Braggin’ Rights or the United Center game … I’m simply expecting they literally, actually cheer for the team. 
I can’t imagine paying for a ticket and sitting there bored.
You’d think mimosas would help…

Okay they fixed it
B1G cannot get the score right!!!
This appears to be fairly unique to Illini fans. Will only get up for a “big” game and expect the team to cause them to cheer. It’s pathetic.WTF is up with our home crowd?
