Game Thread: Illinois vs Rutgers

[Iloveorangekoolaid]

Late to the game thread. What are we complaining about tonight?

The crowd. Petro. Shon Morris.

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Lot of people heading home …

By the sound of them in that 1st half would we even know the difference? It's a real tree falling in the forest situation tonight

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

Whole lot of bad no calls on this end.

 

[FloridaMan]

Whole lot of bad no calls on this end.

Wonder what the line was pre game

 

[CDRUSN]

We could hit this crowd with the defib paddles, and would be lucky to elicit a yawn. Maybe some of them missed their nap today, but a whole stadium full of narcoleptic fans?

 

[BrimfieldBomber]

I just logged in. It is close! Rutgers is only up 4! Davis better come out firing. He is down 16-12.

And including all other Illinois players, Rutgers is now only down 4!


(I hope this Math joke lands).

 

[TrahNeb]

Horrible call.

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

What an abysmal call.

 

[FreshlySqueezed]

Wonder what the line was pre game

-22.5

 

[Mistakenj]

I’ve never felt worse about a 20+ lead. Tomi is just an absolute liability out there

 

[BrownTown]

Glad Big Z's brother can get some PT in a blowout.

 

[spillini]

that was so filthy

 

[ImGonnaBeILL]

Wagler with the and 1

Insane. Wise beyond his years

 

[DeeIL89]

And 1 Wagler!

 

[Illinifrank67]

So is Tomi still battling fatigue from the mono maybe? He looks like the first half of an allergy commercial.

 

[FreshlySqueezed]

Jake earning himself more minutes with his play on both ends of the floor.

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Ah that explains why it looks like everyone is scared to move from their chairs and are silently and patiently waiting for instruction

 

[Battle89]

Is it possible to hold them under 40 for the game? Butgers is definitely going to try to help us achieve that if the shoot that badly in 2nd half

Nope

 

[TrahNeb]

Brad mad. Best game of Davis' career?

 

[Homecoming 2019]

they look exhausted, could have used that timeout a little sooner

 

[BoiseBaller]

Brad looks mad as hell lol. You'd think he was a Loyalty poster.

 

[punchabove33]

Mark my words. Jake Davis to the starting line up by end of the year

 

[sitka]

Brad looks mad as hell lol. You'd think he was a Loyalty poster.

UNDISCIPLINED BASKETBALL!

That was an ugly 3 minutes of basketball other than Jake's defensive effort.

 

[so illini]

back to back good defensive plays by Jake. Well done sir
