Game Thread: Illinois vs Morehead State

[aaeismacgychel]

Coleman has been getting destroyed on the boards. Not boxing out. Not grabbing the ball. Don't know what's going on with him right now

 

[cs04]

I like forcing our tempo on them

 

[FloridaMan]

Dain's ready!!!!!

 

[BBlock24]

Hope people bet the over.

 

[LoveLovie]

Minix will definitely be player of the year in ymca 40+ some day

 

[Mr. Tibbs]

Morehead shooting like 85%

 

[Chad Fleck]

2 fouls on Lathon. Good news.

 

[sacraig]

Surely they can't keep hitting contested shots at this clip all game, right?

 

[hoopsfan47]

MSU playing into our rope a dope strategy...can't hit every shot for two hours..........................can they?

 

[Illinicpa14]

Fouls racking up, we’re playing bad and they’ve hit shots, we’re fine

 

[skyIdub]

Relax. They've fallen right into our trap.


First to 90 wins. They can't keep up for 40.

[GallopingGhost]

Opponent hot shooting to start?
Lathan has 2 fouls already which is good news

 

[thehass]

It's uncanny how teams seem to shoot so well against us especially in the 1st half.

I’m scared someone hold me

 

[Illinicpa14]

2nd foul on one of their guards - they go like 6-7 deep onlu

 

[daytonillini]

have to match the intensity and desire Duquesne showed earlier on the defensive side of the ball- refused to give up an easy basket, refused to lose a rebound or loose ball.

 

[grantlab]

4 offensive boards and Morehead State is taking and making 16 foot 2 pointers. Deep breath. I like where we’re at.

 

[LarryGotFouled]

How’s does every team we play suddenly go nuclear on shooting % on contested shots??

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Tell you what, Morehead State came to play today. Gotta keep going at them and limit open looks from them as much as possible

 

[TheFlyingIllini1317]

They are gonna make us defend, key for us to get out in transition, force tough twos, and box out.

 

[GallopingGhost]

Let’s settle in boys. Come on Illini!
