[ILL-Intentions]

I really questioned morez on martinelli but man do I love seeing the rejections

Morez absolute animal defensively today

 

[Jon]

We're so freaking good when we're having an average shooting night

 

[ginabackes00]

Sometimes KJ makes the most confusing passes

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Morez looks like he took that Maryland game personally. He's been all over the place. There's basically 3 of him on the court

KJ trying to do his best Jokic pass. Lol!

He's also allowed to play by the refs!

Is Will Riley on the Mike Tisdale diet this offseason? That kid needs to be pumpin protein because man does he need some muscle (and stop being so scared of contact, initiate it, don't avoid it).

It’s crazy how this exact same Northwestern team beat Maryland

 

[aveseaboy]

Izzo would’ve got the timeout

 

[SuperMetroid]

Morez absolute animal defensively today

He’s completely turned off Martinelli’s water and it’s beautiful

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

Lol, timeout??? Same thing as MSU?

 

[aaeismacgychel]

We're up 21 and 75% of the Krush might as well be attending a funeral. They need to make those kids run windsprints after this game

Transitive property

At Oregon/PennState/at Indiana/Northwestern in one group.

USC/at Northwestern/Maryland in another group.

Never know what you are going to get

 

[CDRUSN]

Defensive intensity, rebounding, and hustle plays are off the charts today. Bodes well for the future if the team makes this their standard. Shots are even starting to fall after a slow offensive start.

Would help if they fixed their seating and put them back next to the court.

It’s a blowout vs a bad team. On a Sunday afternoon. Do you expect energy?

So sad

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Gorgeous passing. Wow.

 

[ILL-Intentions]

I want a Jake Davis 20pt game!

Yes, it’s also crazy how this exact same Northwestern team beat us.

It's amazing what a little hustle does for a team's all around play. Play the right way and the Bball gods will reward.

Martenelli can't get anything with Morez on him and Barnhizer looking like he's the one with mono.
