Game Thread: Illinois vs Washington

Keaton with a somehow quiet 19 and 7

If you didnt know they were both in college and you saw 11 for Wash next to Wagler, what would you guess their age difference to be? Father/son?

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

That was a very good defensive possession (and great rebound by Hummer).

Keaton just so much stronger than he looks.

Body control. He stays balanced and square so well

Mentally.

Well, when you're short a ball handler and you only had two to begin with, choices are minimal.

There is a professional point guard on the bench. The defense took a break with the lineup w/o Wagler in there.

Another Freshman of the week…

For the uniform junkies on the board, what’s your take on the Husky uniforms? They look like they forgot to change out of their practice unis to me.

Washington definitely doesn't take days off in the weight room. They got some big dudes.

If he made free throws in the first half, he'd have 25 and it would be louder. Nice controlled game however. Like to see that portion of his game grow.

Our second chance points in this second half are really helping us keeping this lead.

I really believe if we had KB healthy this game, we'd be up about 15 by now. I'm also starting to worry with the load we are putting on Keaton, he is going to be gassed in the second half playing at Nebraska Sunday, with only 2 days rest. We are expecting him to run point, lead us in scoring, and play high level defense.

 

[azillini1]

Not many TO’s in the game… Dawgs with 6 and we have 4. Much better at taking care of the ball this year.

 

[BoiseBaller]

Goaltend!

 

[aaeismacgychel]

That certainly looked like a goaltend

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Those were 2 impressive blocks by Washington

 

[DICKnaggie]

They’ve made a lot of mid range shots tonight. You live with those. And don’t move the goal post talking about rebounding lol

That makes no sense, but I'll agree to disagree. Thanks for the debate and have a good night.

 

[PNWIllini]

Strong inside game UW. We need some answer for that. Especially if 3’s aren’t falling

 

[TwinCityBreaker]

Gosh darn do I love Underwood. Does anyone else hear Matt Foley in the mic'd huddle?

 

[illiniguy24]

Steinbach is seriously impressive
