Game Thread: Illinois vs Texas Tech

[illinifreak30]

The most complete team we’ve had in quite a while.

If only this complete team could run an offense. It’s like iso mania

 

[champaignpak]

weird refs

 

[Second place is 1st loser]

It's tough carrying a team on your shoulders.

Thus the thought process by not doubling him. Make him do it by himself and if he can.....tip the cap.

 

[DeeAndDWill]

I dream of a day where Illinois actually gets some borderline calls at home, like every team does.

Today is not that day.

 

[sacraig]

To be fair, I think Tech stepped it up quite a bit out of the locker room at half.

Or at least Toppin did. And Tech's get-the-ball-to-Toppin skills.

 

[FloridaMan]

Yes...except they take about 2 sec. to get over it and go back to work.

We will see. Hopefully not

 

[green_bay_energy]

Whatever we are paying Andrej, it’s not enough

 

[zentrails]

It's tough carrying a team on your shoulders.

Toppin looks wiped out

And has he come out of the game even once?

 

[abchew2]

If we win this game it’ll be containing the scoring from Anderson to point to like many thought would be required

 

[Thaillini22]

Steve Smith has been good, both actually.

Mirk needs some heavy work on his footwork. Needs to take dance classes…

Paging Mr. beshanishvili, Mr. Giorgi Beshanishvili

 

[steveinspringfield]

Andrej jerseys should sell well

 

[DeeIL89]

Probably should bring Z in now.

 

[Illiniam1984]

The refs were calling a fair game in the first half…The second half not so much.

 

[Hessel Blvd]

Aye this twilight-looking mf’er is legit

 

[Deep]

Mirk needs some heavy work on his footwork. Needs to take dance classes…

Is Giorgi available

 

[Epsilon]

Mirk got away with a reach there

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Not surprised at all these open threes for Tech aren't going down. Nobody has legs left

 

[FloridaMan]

Steve smith pulling for tech hard tonite lol

 

[Naborman88]

Basketball gets challenges now?

 

[NarrowJ]

Good call here to challenge this

Edit: eh maybe not

 

[Pikeillinifan]

Probably should bring Z in now.

Not sure why we have him still sitting.

 

[Epsilon]

It was off Toppin

 

[so illini]

Our leader is playing with heart down low on Toppin.
