Game Thread: Illinois vs Penn State

[RML]

Harris is hurt again

 

[HailtotheChief]

Ok can we go a game without fouling a 3 pt shooter! That's just so careless

 

[sacraig]

That was a foul on Rodgers but I feel like PSU should have got a T for an absolutely absurd flop on top of it.

 

[SuperMetroid]

Stop fouling that flopmaster on 3’s

It tells me that penn state is a lot better than you thought. We’ve got two top ten wins and will be 7-3. There’s no chance we are un ranked Monday.

Looks like how Brad gets outcoached against a lot of good coaches. This is embarrassing being so much more talented and not being able to pull it out on our home court. Proof is in the pudding.

 

[Mr. Roberts]

2 dunks erased by a bad foul. Oof.

 

[KingWolf11]

This Mayer/Underwood dynamic is going to be interesting to watch this season. Only 6 minutes in the 2nd half

Ridiculous

 

[Illini8420]

Can we start Harris next game?

 

[Jon]

Two options: give up wide open 3 or foul 3 point shooter

 

[DICKnaggie]

Matt and Sky need to be in. We need offense.

 

[azillini1]

Penn State only has 19 points in the 2nd half.

But we have less in 2nd half than PSU and they are still shooting 54% for the game.

 

[Pikeillinifan]

Hopefully this is an anomaly.

 

[BlueLeader]

Lack of toughness here

 

[Clngpl94]

Pathetic... this is worse than ANY football loss... they deserve not to be ranked after this dismally showing

 

[Icy veins]

Can't remember a letdown like this in years

 

[Mr. Roberts]

Brad after this game.

 

[fantasydaily708]

The Funk kid shot they eyes out today

You win the prize for hottest of takes…

 

[SuperMetroid]

We’ve completely lost the plot now. Just chucking up wild garbage

 

[mk345]

We are just so freaking sloppy and undisciplined. We play good in spurts, but just so inconsistent.

 

[Illini8420]

Our D was bad this game but we also don’t have a true go to scorer like Ayo or Kofi this year. Our offense is just a crapshoot

 

[IllinoisGrad0609]

Would love to say that this is a "teaching moment", but hard to see it right now. So called "leaders" did mostly nothing, and Shannon has been extremely disappointing (out of the OT v. Texas) the past 3-4 games. Extremely poor showing.

 

[NorthShoreIllini]

Hard to believe we look like this. shrewsberry absolutely torched underwood and staff today. Hard to fathom.

 

[eas23]

Defense is rightfully the story here, but Shannon, Melendez, Hawkins, and Epps have 15 points.....combined.
