Game Thread: Illinois vs Purdue

[hoopsfan47]

Deep respect for our Illini who have only 4 turnovers against a quicker team.

 

[JJE]

lol. That’s the foul they call?!

 

[IllinistrandedinHouston]

We look a bit gassed. Need some energy to finish this

Our bench has been no help tonight

 

[HailtotheChief]

Tomi and KJ gotta do better and not force things! Fortunate Smith missed that 3.

 

[SkyysNotFalling]

How was that not a foul holy moly.. officiating in this game has been horrid

 

[Miles Leonard]

We are a much better team away from SFC. I just don’t understand.

The homecourt advantage is just not there for us. Far cry from the days where we were pretty close to unbeatable at SFC.

Tripping is a foul at Breslin, but not at State Farm

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Huge bucket there off the inbounds. Did we need that

 

[NarrowJ]

Finally a foul call after 11 minutes of them mugging us with no whistle

 

[UCantHideYer]

I usually like Rafferty, but his vision is failing him tonight. KJ mauled.

 

[Olaf B]

That's nice

 

[Fighter of the Nightman]

The way Boswell and KJ trot back up the court like we aren’t on the verge of losing an essential game at home makes me want to bang my head into the wall.

This team needs a TSJ or Trent SO badly.

 

[CDRUSN]

More of THAT please. Get it inside and force them to foul.

 

[Jon]

These refs have no idea what they're doing. Every whistle is a dart throw

 

[IllinistuckinGopherland]

I’ll take that call

 

[Wazababybrucedouglaskid]

These refs are complete jokes both way!!!

 

[blife]

TW and WR carry us men

 

[Epsilon]

Free call?

 

[hiberto]

really dumb turnovers the last minutes down the stretch. need to take care of the ball in crunch time

 

[SuperMetroid]

LOL they call that after all the muggings ok

 

[ejam21]

big shot there for ben

 

[aaeismacgychel]

BEN'S MAKING OPEN THREES!!!!

 

[punchabove33]

Ben.. top of the key.. good. Knew you could do it!

 

[Chiieeff]

B3N!

 

[biglug58]
