Game Thread: Illinois vs Ohio State

[JSpence]

Curbelo is taking ALL of the shots and he has two points. What the hell, guys.

Actually, the five Illini on the floor have 6 points among them.

Jinx.

 

[SuperMetroid]

They have 0 fouls this half

 

[spillini]

Brad looks defeated

 

[Illini John]

What is it with this team that they always give up these big runs? I don't get it.

 

[IlliniForceOne]

2 points in the last 9 minutes? What’s the program record?

 

[Chillinini]

Typical. After a timeout, turn the ball over on a travel. Wow.

Definitely no Big Ten title.

Not here for Brad “sending a message” with 4 games to go in the season. Play your best players.

 

[WyattEarp]

So we’ve given up on crashing the boards apparently. I wish Kofi would throw up a fake and go up and under once in a while…
let EJ’s butt go sailing’ out of bounds…or he’d draw a foul one…

What is sad, is that if the Illini had played as the game dictated, this would have been an Illini blowout. Still can be.

 

[jumpingjack]

Huge huge huge 3 by Belo

 

[skyIdub]

Kofi absolutely mauled again.

Players need to make shots. The only one who has is Plummer. BU can't make shots for them.

 

[spillini]

LMAO if Liddell had the ball in Kofi's place there'd have been 200 whistles

 

[SuperMetroid]

7 minutes 0 fouls 856 hacks

 

[hiberto]

refs bad but tech not going to help us BU

 

[FloridaMan]

Little too little little too late, Brad. Should've happened 6 weeks ago.

 

[IlliniTaffy]

I think the refs have been fine, Kofi just looks off tonight. Not a fan of that technical by Brad.

 

[Illini_Jack]

Wheels coming off

 

[Chillinini]

Should’ve been t’ed up earlier. Might as well get another one. Won’t hurt.

 

[skyIdub]

And then that touch call.....

So sick of B1G officiating.

Respectfully, you're wrong. Kofi gets r*ped every game, nothing is ever called. So maybe you're becoming used to it?

 

[IlliniForceOne]

Kofi really struggles against teams that are overly physical with him.

 

[Peoria Pipeline]

This is the worst game I can ever remember Kofi having.

 

[DICKnaggie]

Is this "culture"? "Everyday guys"? Another absolute meltdown.

I'm never a fan of the head coach getting a tech, but it makes people feel better because he's "lighting a fire".
