Game Thread: Illinois vs Oakland

[Tyrone HoggLegg]

Not a single one of our guys is playing with confidence. Can we get a sports psychologist on the staff or something?

We need a team of shrinks.

 

[ILLFAN67]

Goode has had 3 horrible passes

 

[jumpingjack]

Free game balls tonight. How'd I miss that??

 

[ILLFAN67]

Make a layup!!!!

 

[IlliniInIndy85]

I don’t understand how we miss some of the easy shots that we do.

 

[Illiniam1984]

I think we’re going to lose this game folks.

 

[SweetLuh]

Just an absolute embarrassment of an effort tonight.

 

[Illiniprime]

For all the hype that was surrounding this team in the offseason, I’m not seeing it at all.

 

[CDRUSN]

C'mon CoHawk. Rooting for you to start playing like your future mattered, and pull this one out.

 

[jumpingjack]

Our energy level generally looks putrid tonight.

 

[PassingBy]

Will be fine with an L in this game.

The Kansas exhibition game was a fluke. So far at least.

 

[ILLFAN67]

If we don’t wake up here in the next minute it’s big trouble.

 

[Eternal Optimist]

Watching Boswell postgame interview after beating Duke on the road tonight. Man, he’s a nice player! What could have been!

 

[aaeismacgychel]

12 minutes left. Our 5 best guys have been Ty, TSJ, Domask, Guerrier, and Dain. We may need to run that

 

[Second place is 1st loser]

All of the goodwill after the Kansas scrimmage and the second half vs Eastern....the detectors are out in full force!

 

[hoopsfan47]

I have news for this B1G+ announcer. Oakland winning would not be a massive upset. They are pretty darned good but without the banners.

 

[Highlander]

Not watching - who is not guarding Townsend?

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Luke really struggling

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Another huge steal and transition bucket by TSJ

 

[IllinistuckinGopherland]

Watching Boswell postgame interview after beating Duke on the road tonight. Man, he’s a nice player! What could have been!

Watching AZ calmly make six FTs in a row to win was a sad realization that our only chance at a March run is to win every game by 10.

 

[eas23]

Domask just firing up shots now.

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Not watching - who is not guarding Townsend?

Luke

 

[ILLFAN67]

Use the backboard Dainja!

 

[Jimbo]

Two automatic free throws coming up here

 

[The Galloping Ghost]

Not watching - who is not guarding Townsend?

Sorry, everybody is not guarding him. Dude is destroying us.
