We get punched in the mouth and just let it happen. Our guys have to come TO THE BALL on the inbounds and press

So it's...throw it to Tate in the corner where he can get trapped instantly, everyone else but Finke takes off down the court so he has no help?

Personal fouls are 5-2 against us right now. And they are the team that applies constant pressure. We suck on D apparently.

we are absolutely hopeless against this press.

WVU looks so much better than us

Yup. They have swagger. They are passing well, exploiting weak recognition by our defense off the bounce, and have a defense that we haven't figured out.

I fear for the final score :(

The good thing about this game being played on Thanksgiving, it's ok to start drinking early in the afternoon.

Looks like hand fouls are not gonna be called on WV. That's gonna be trouble.

Will be a 30+ point loss. Notice how good coaching will lead to baskets at the rim. Illinois isn't at the same level as any top 25 team. Horrible ball movement and spacing. Another Illinois team that fails to work their offense towards the rim. Just pass it around the perimeter slowly getting farther away, then desperation shot.

WVU looks so much better than us. Better prepared, more disciplined, more aggressive, and more confident. Loss by 20-30?

Feels like a near miracle every time we get the ball in bounds. This is a train wreck.

We're not playing well but the refs are letting West Virginia get away with everything

Hopefully we turn this around but.....looking pretty ugly so far.

Team looks awful on defense. Morgan and Thorne are awful.
