Game Thread: Illinois vs Purdue

[grantlab]

Why is Ty Rodgers starting? Reverse-reverse psychology?!?

 

[LvilleILL]

LETS GOOOO

Surprised by Ty. But Brad does like having Harmon come off the bench.

 

[illini0440]

Tournament type nerves today. And it’s a good thing. LETS EFFIN ROLL BOYS

 

[Goillinikobd]

Wow, we get Bardo and Hummel

Josh Pastner always looks like he desperately needs to sell me a used car to meet his quota for the month.

Oh my god, we doubled. Look at us with the defensive wrinkle, causing the immediate turnover.

Oh my god, we doubled. Look at us with the defensive wrinkle, causing the immediate turnover.

It was all an illusion ... We were saving the adjustments just for this game ...

It is loud and rocking

The effort on the glass and on defense are SOOO much better than the last 10 or so starts we’ve had. Team looks fired up

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Hell of a start. Refs letting everyone play. Loving the effort, the atmosphere is electric and we are coming with INTENSITY

 

[Chad Fleck]

Building sounds like it has some juice!

 

[Fighter of the Nightman]

Holy moly - GREAT job, crowd and Krush! It sounds and looks electric … frankly to a level we haven’t seen in nearly 20 years!

SFC IS LOUD

 

[BBlock24]

Have they done the 3 announcer set up before tonight? It’s interesting.

 

[RabidDawgClassic]

How long before this spikes sharply?

The Orange Krush is loving it!

 

[dwpittman]

Edey is obviously tough to stop, but pretty satisfied with the defense on everyone else so far. Keep it up guys!

 

[Jimbo]

Love the start, only complaint is Hawkins with the early foul.

 

[SkyysNotFalling]

I’m so excited

 

[WyattEarp]

Well okay then…so far so good.
