Need to be careful here. Down 8-10 to Virginia is like being down 20 against anyone else.

Clark looking too Beloesque.
Beautiful move by Mayer
Little helter skelter…..which is to our advantage
Good flop by TSJ there.

That's the Baylor Mayer
Shannon is SO good at that! Forcing charges.
Big hint:
DON’T lower your shoulder.

Probably already posted but I don’t have time to read everything today.
Illini fortunes rise and fall with turnovers....four already this half.
Heady heady play by Rodgers to save that ball. Such high IQ frehmen
how do they always have 2 guys under the hoop for rebounds?
Neither team shooting a good percentage. Defense kills!!
Not a foul on Harris
Not good shots these last two possessions. Need more penetration

Because they aren't interested at all in runouts
Not getting any easy looks. Need more back cuts.
This is like playing Wisconsin on Quaaludes.

Feels a bit like right now is Virginia's chance to win this game. Beware if they let us hang around.

Looks like FauxHawk showed up today. Still time, but this team isn’t designed to excel in a 1/2 half court efficiency minded game.
Great job, TSJ! Need to keep taking the ball to the hoop

One fast break basket so far this game --- and it's by UVA.
