Game Thread: Illinois vs UConn

[CasualObserver05]

Mirk is getting some wide open looks. Wish a couple would fall.

There's a reason he's been wide open. Hurley begging him to keep shooting.

 

[SuperMetroid]

“Beautiful screen” and it’s literally a guy throwing two elbows in a row LOL

 

[QueenCityIllini]

We aren't playing our best ball but HOLY F*** the egregious one sided, officiated game is actually disgusting to watch.

 

[CT-55]

Every big game with the crap blue uniforms, Illinois plays with deer in the headlights type play. Get the orange uniforms and play with a purpose. Games like this show the country how overrated Illinois is.

 

[Peteronthespot]

Equal talent. Unequal coaching. Watch out after halftime. Hurley will take Brad to school again.

 

[Rusty]

Where's Wagler?

2 fouls

 

[NarrowJ]

Illinois is 4-11. Mirkovic is 0-4. Those are not good shots I'm sorry.

you’re excused

I still believe

 

[illiniguy24]

Mirkovic yet to get ball over the front of the rim on a 3.

Courts with NBA three point lines are our worst enemy

 

[stlrunner]

Big Z and Boswell bringing some life to this game.

 

[BDMAN]

Brda is getting out coached again IMO

 

[CleverHandle1]

Illinois is 4-11. Mirkovic is 0-4. Those are not good shots I'm sorry.

He had a great game against a tomato can, and we all fell in love. He is not ready for the big time.

I’m out until they tie this game. It’s too nice outside to get sucked into this same sh!t again.

Ivisic looking like Clingan

 

[RIP_Chief_2003]

Z jumped before dude went into his shot lol

 

[Highlander]

Should have been and 1 for Boswell.

 

[TheodoreRex]

Legit- every time we drive we get bodied or fouled- nothing...

 

[HereSoIDontGetFined]

Back under 10. Can we get it under 5 before half?

 

[SummerofGeorge]

Need to get it down to 6-7 before half. Yes, I just said 6 7

 

[OB positive]

Petrovic gets us our best looks. Unfortunately he has had to sit out with foul trouble.

 

[The Galloping Ghost]

I hate Hurley's dumb face so much.

 

[Iloveorangekoolaid]

Kylan gets hammered like 5 times on one play and they call that soft foul on Ben. Woof

 

[DICKnaggie]

Perfect illustration of how this game is being called.

 

[NarrowJ]

How do you not call the same exact contact on one end and immediately call it on the other?

 

[Jon]

Great defense by Ben, big disagree

 

[blife]

How is it no foul for KB and foul on BH
