Game Thread: Illinois vs Penn State

[InDaAZ]

Where is Hawkins? Must have had a bad practice.

PSU strategy: back off DMW and/or Hawkins and give them open threes. BU must have more confidence in Da’Monte to knock down a few.

Kofi looks like crap tonight. The entire team looks completely disinterested, except Trent who is always busting his a$$ on both ends

He’s the only one keeping them in the game

Good call as we are tied with Penn State....

And DMW shooting is the reason?

 

[Mr. Roberts]

This is the worst game I’ve seen him play this year…..

Its one thing to struggle against Edey, but this is sad. He is killing us on D and rebounding.

 

[Rocky]

Where is Kofi's D? Just hands up, maybe jump?

WTF

He jumped without even a shot fake. No consciousness of Harrar.

Goode has been pretty bad tonight. Could really use RJ. Don’t understand why we aren’t seeing more Hawkins

But for the entire second half? Omar had a minute, but otherwise, just Belo has subbed in.

Coach has to light things up, maybe tell Kofi to get pissed.

 

[InDaAZ]

Kofi has 5 rebounds right now with maybe 20 hitting off his hands and bouncing away. My guy has crisco on his hands. Can someone please give him a towel.

Or some fried chicken?

 

[PassingBy]

Very disappointing

Especially considering we have so much experience

I'm certain he has and he can't try and get kicked out to light a fire. That works once.

 

[BDMAN]

The next offensive spurt wins this it is hard for me to fathom how flat we are

 

[Rocky]

Steady diet of Kofi. Get in double bonus and live at the line.

 

[FromTheLogo]

Sit DMW. It would open up the middle a bit. It is embarrassing that they aren't even guarding him.

 

[IlliniForceOne]

Better now than later this month, I guess?

 

[Orangetool]

Coach needs to sub, scream, throw a chair, get a T, threaten unending harsh practices?

You guys tell me.

 

[DMWSuperFan]

I mean if we get a big guard in the tourney that can play in the paint we are toast.

Don’t think DMW can match up well against a big guard?

 

[FromTheLogo]

I rest my case. BRICK.

Think he tried that last game. Can’t do it every game.

 

[Orangetool]

I guess but jeez.

 

[Fighter of the Nightman]

Can Plummer at least make up for it on the other end??

 

[BDMAN]

Our team totally underestimated this PSU team

 

[CV Illini]

Are we going to lose at home to 12-14 PSU????
