Game Thread: Illinois vs Nebraska

[zpfled]

Looks to me like we are ignoring rebounding.

It's a strategy

 

[geneseo]

Still in it... down 5 with 11 minutes left

 

[Captain Bubbles]

Illinois needs to keep staying in that zone. It's effective.

 

[skyIdub]

That's terrible

 

[BPFor3]

What a flop by Parker.

Big shot JCL. Big shot

 

[dskibin2]

5 point swing on an atrocious call. Teddy making his impact felt

 

[Captain Bubbles]

Seems like when Illinois goes on a run, Nebraska responds with one.

I'll take a JCL 3 anytime, anyday.

 

[zpfled]

Yeah, we've hit Nebraska a couple times but they stand right back up and punch us in the nose.

 

[coltjames03]

I give up

 

[Captain Bubbles]

Huskers may have solved the zone it appears. Have to switch to another defense. The zone was working, but NE starting to figure it out.

If you don't know ted is doing a game, you will be made to know. Was anybody else surprised he had to re-tie his shoe while ago?

Takes us too long to make "in game" changes.

 

[Captain Bubbles]

Still have time to come back, but need stops here. Just under 7 mins left.

Shields looks like you could stand 5 feet away from him with a lit match and his hair would just catch fire.

 

[PerennIaLL]

Miles winning the in-game adjustments so far. Let's see if we can respond. Need to quickly.

If Illinois goes to the m2m, NE just cuts it up by feeding it inside for the score. Need to throw another zone or another defensive scheme that can slow them/shut them down.

 

[zpfled]

This is a huge disappointment. I thought that we would take care of a roughly equally matched team at home.

Common theme in our games it seems....

 

[IlliniFan85]

I wish Nebraska would get called for the moving screens like we are right now. And what a BS call by over eccentric Ted Bull Crap Valentine with Hill on post.

 

[Captain Bubbles]

I don't know why, but this made me laugh.

 

[Captain Bubbles]

Thought those were two rare misses by Hill earlier. Really could've helped had he made both of them.

 

[IlliniFan85]

Push off on White twice that possession

 

[Captain Bubbles]

Coming down the homestretch. Gotta get stops.

 

[illinoisfan11]

Morrow could play 40 minutes on our team. Better than any post option we have.
