Game Thread: Illinois vs Nebraska

[IlliniFaninHoosierLand]

If I'm not mistaken, I think this is the first time Dainja has played in this game.

 

[SuperMetroid]

So many stupid busted possessions ending up in some schmuck hitting a 3

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Great fighting by Goode on the offensive boards

 

[LoveLovie]

Goode with some effort plays even though he’s missing

 

[New Creation]

Just keep missing wide open 3s

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Great dish by Domask

 

[azillini1]

Excluding CH, we are 2 for 16 from 3. Someone has to step up... we are shooting at home

 

[hiberto]

we're having success in the paint, keep going there

 

[CDRUSN]

On cruisers and destroyers I served in, we sailed through a lot of horribly violent storms. Countless nights, I strapped myself in my rack when not on watch on the bridge, to keep from getting tossed on the deck. Good times.

Neb is hitting some TOUGH shots.

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Nebraska shooting out of their effing minds tonight. The shot quality they have had compared to ours tonight is diabolic

 

[GallopingGhost]

1/4 of game left! Gotta finish strong and keep making good shots. The paint seems to be a feeding ground

 

[IlliniInIndy85]

The degree of difficulty in Nebraska's shots it’s ridiculous. They can’t continue to make them, right?

 

[abchew2]

Is this the best Nebraska has played on the road? Feel like this level of play from them should have won them a few road games.

 

[JSpence]

Ty and CoHawk have one foul between them. We don't have enough defense on the floor.

gotta think that evens out by the end

 

[RockfordIllini]

They’re throwing in tough shots. Seems like every loose ball caroms to them and they are getting a bucket. Basketball gods do not appear to be with us tonight. Gotta fight through it.

 

[BBlock24]

our defense has been pretty darn good tonight. Nebby is just making tough shots. Tip your cap.

 

[Bleedorangeandblue44]

Feels like we should be up by way more than 2

 

[derrick6]

Dainja showing his uniqueness

 

[azillini1]

Neb is hitting some TOUGH shots.

Yep, 9 for 19 from 3!

 

[Mr. Roberts]

Neb is hitting some TOUGH shots.

And we are missing some wide open ones.

 

[D1959]

Nebraska playing best game of the year on the road against us. Go figure

 

[WeWillWhen]

Some nice minutes from Dain. The 3s we’re missing are mostly uncontested.

Our defense has not been great. These aren't as contested as they look. Our guys are behind them a bit.
