Game Thread: Illinois vs Penn

[Marshall_Lucky]

Think wagler got away with a walk there

 

[Jon]

Kylan and Andrej game. I can see it

Or Mirk is just much stronger than everyone else

 

[abchew2]

Good to see Boswell being aggressive

 

[SuperMetroid]

Their game plan is to grab Wagler

And Boswell and Tomi and Mirk and…

 

[Jimbo]

Tomi starting the game 30 feet from the basket. SMH.

Yeah, it’s crazy.

 

[RIP_Chief_2003]

That TV timeout ("Z") cannot come in fast enough...

 

[CrazedUIFan]

I love the offensive looks

 

[Flyin' Illini]

I'm sick of Tomi already tonight. He's the biggest guy in the floor and can't box anyone out.

 

[jumpingjack]

Love the execution so far. Headhunting Levine for postups is the way.

 

[Chillinini]

Jake looks lost defensively. AS time!

 

[IllinoisGrad0609]

Illini are definitely bigger and stronger. If they can limit easy buckets, this should be a blowout. Penn has no inside game.

 

[Illini88]

Mirk gets it. Back them down/use our size

Go.

He's a better offensive player than defensive imo.

 

[Second place is 1st loser]

They def. got the scout and are being physical with Wagler

Beat me to it. He's also slow getting out to that Zanoni(sp?) guy.

 

[IceCuban]

Penn can not keep up and is holding us on offense like a boxer that's out of gas...just need the refs to see it...

 

[ChiIllini75]

This is going to be frustrating to watch. Penn is hugging guys all over the court without calls so far. That is going to get old fast.

 

[skyIdub]

I don't want to beat a dead horse.....but can I beat a dead Tomi? With his own hands?

 

[IllinoisGrad0609]

They def. got the scout and are being physical with Wagler

And he's drawn two fouls so far. Unlike the B1G, good refs actually call fouls.

 

[Illini4Christ]

We need Z and AS

 

[TheodoreRex]

If the ball doesn't touch the paint once every possession- it's a travesty

 

[cs04]

Inside all game

 

[DeeIL89]

Keep attacking the paint. We have the advantage there.

 

[ImGonnaBeILL]

Levine being in foul trouble not a great thing. I'd go at him every single time. KB shouldn't have given it up last time.

 

[Thaillini22]

Go.

Inside.

We are?
