Game Thread: Illinois vs Ohio State

[DaveStu]

Injuries and sickness aside, I'm starting to wonder if we have team/locker room issues.

Crowd is a lot better today.

Yes, definitely gotta give the Krush credit today. This is their best showing of the season

 

[Illini8420]

We’d be down 20 without a sick Tomi

 

[OneTime3]

BS foul.

 

[CleverHandle1]

Close-to-basket points from Tomas. Need more of that.

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Man, RIley has so much skill, he just needs a year and about 15-20lbs of muscle

 

[BigE]

DGL!

 

[altgeld88]

Why is DG effing L ever sitting on the bench?!

 

[DB11Headband]

Tomi
Morez
Will
DGL
KJ

Plain and simple needs to be the main lineup the rest of the way (game and season). Two high energy athletes who can defend. Two NBA players. And a hub offensively and defensively. By far the most well-constructed lineup we can put out there.

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

DGL, who else.

 

[Illini8420]

So lucky right there lol

 

[DeeIL89]

DGL!

 

[Ryllini]

DGL - the heartbeat

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Outstanding effort play by DGL there. Making our run

 

[derrick6]

DGL to the rescue. Bench him coach

 

[SuperMetroid]

Got lucky on that possession

 

[skyIdub]

For the love of all of our sanity, please bring back Will, Rez, and DGL. Beg, rob, steal, threaten.

 

[Jimbo]

Miracle 2 points.

I will say, we are playing much better than we did at nebraska. That’s a good sign. Maybe we’ve bottomed out.

 

[Battle89]

I don’t know where the Krush Kurtain came from, or the dancing sharks, but I hope it never appears again. Looks like something a preschool puts on for Mothers Day.

 

[jrum48]

I agree about the luck statement in a way, but hustle, competitive nature, a hard nose way of playing creates luck!

 

[Second place is 1st loser]

Injuries and sickness aside, I'm starting to wonder if we have team/locker room issues.

Locker room issues have nothing to do with 3-19 three point shooting. Lol. We just don't shoot it well. Don't look any more into it than that. The stats are what they are and ours have been similar the last three weeks.

 

[Champaign88]

Humbrichous has no business for calling his own number from the three point line when Riley just abused the OSU freshman on the prior play and is calling for the ball.

Man, RIley has so much skill, he just needs a year and about 15-20lbs of muscle

He needs to eat a cheeseburger every other night and come back much stronger next year.

 

[OneTime3]

DGL needs all of the Boswell minutes at this point.

Team needs to retool around him, MJ and Riley taking over minutes.

2 on the shot clock.
