Game Thread: Illinois vs Washington

Ben's had a good game.
Wagler continues to make plays in the lane. Great initial pass, and great ball movement.

Thank god for Humrichous. Never thought I'd be saying that lol.

Tied on rebounds with Washington isn’t going to make Coach happy

Time to send these dawgs to a farm out in the countryside
The point is you NEED to have more ball handlers. End of story. What if he were in foul trouble and needed to be on the bench for 10+ minutes? Just because he's on the bench simply cannot mean we're going to struggle handling the ball. Until KB comes back, this is going to be dicey.
What a beautiful sequence for Ben -- way to knock it down!
Ben earned the game ball tonight already. And that's no disrespect to #23 in the least.
Very very very much Augie to Dee to Deron to Luther vibes
What a horrible shot by #44--way to break a potential rally to put the game away.
Pretty round the horn to Big Ben for the 3
BEN there, done that! Big shot!!!
He's the non Wagler MVP
Props to Ben tonight!
Ben Humrichous has come to play this evening. He isn't athletic enough to fully check Diallo, but he's doing enough to slow him down and he's done a really good job at guarding the post and rebounding.

Don't think anything will surpass that possession against Northwestern from '05, but that certainly was as good a passing sequence as we've seen from the Underwood Illini.
Video from '05 just because
2nd chance pts will though
He impacts so many plays beyond the blocks, so much fun to watch
