Game Thread: Illinois vs Wisconsin

[HailChief89]

Quantify “many” this evening in the context of his complete contribution, please

I think personally is what most people are trying to say. Is Curbelo is back but Wow! Trent Frazier 0 points Plumber not even seen.

Well, if you remember that he is like that wife that sometimes does stuff after a business trip and other times doesn't, you'll understand why. I think.

Stop fouling Davis & take away the UW ORebs in the 2H and the Illini will win this one by 10+.

 

[ILLFAN67]

Yes they will hit some 3’s. We definitely need to rebound better.

 

[trtl]

I'm trying to be humorous, but as my 2 son's say. " Dad your a Marine, your not funny".

You told that joke to your kids!!!!!

Who had the last 20 point half for Illinois?

 

[Rusty]

Wahl is too quick for BBV. We basically need Goode to put on 20 lbs next year so he can guard guys like this

Hawkins should be this guy

 

[Chad Fleck]

Plummer's step back was out of frustration of not being able to get any open looks. He's just being well covered in the B1G.

 

[illinipimp]

Frazier and Plummer zero points and we are leading by 4 at the half? Ridonkulous.

Feed Kofi
Feed Kofi
Feed Kofi

Box out on D
Box out on D
Box out on D

That would be my halftime speech..........

Wahl is good
Davis is good but plays out of control sometimes
Davison is a punk

They have NOBODY who can stop Kofi
Both their bigs have 2 fouls and it should 3-4 fouls each.....DMW was fouled on his drive bucket ....Davis would have gotten the call....
Jake is playing great on O.....D is shaky

This is going to be a rockfight second half and i worry that the 3 blind mice will play a LARGE part in the outcome.....

JMHO

Eh, on some real sh*t: Underwood should tell these dudes at halftime "don't try to do too much creating your own shot until you've tried to get it into Kofi".

Like that step back 3 from Plummer down the stretch. Totally not necessary. Not nearly the best option right there.

This like smashmouth football. Take it to their body until they prove they can do something about it (other than cry them cheddary Wisconsin tears).

Big Jamaica is in his bag tonight, and we need to let him welcome these bumpkins from Wisconsin to Jamrock.

That 'Brood prose........

High level BB being played. Need to clean up the defensive boards. How could any big-time recruit be watching this game and not want to play for the beloved. Love the pace. This ain't your granddaddy's BB being played.

He looks slow to me last couple of games. Not cutting hard — might be banged up.

Kofi against Maryland, 2nd 1/2 i believe.

 

[azillini1]

It looked to me that Kofi was playing soft on defense since he didn't want to get into foul trouble. Since he only has 1 foul, I think you will see him contest a few more shots around the rim in the 2nd half.

 

[Mr. Roberts]

Would not have expected to be up 4 with goose eggs from Trent and Alfonso. Tighten up on D and on D rebounding and keep feeding the big guy. At some point, shots will be there for the guards.

[dwpittman]

Gesticulating, demonstrative, and overly involved spaz in the lower left corner of your screen.

Courtside, close to the Illinois baseline.

I'm mostly okay with her. Though I'd be pissed if I had the seat right behind her, and she was blocking my view.

 

[alaskaillini]

With Plummer and Frazier having zero points and being outrebounded by 4, think being up by 4 at half ain't bad. It may be likely that Wiscy hits a few threes in the 2nd half, but it is just as likely that Frazier and Plummer hit as many.

 

[GallopingGhost]

Davis has most of his point from FT and I can’t decide if that’s a good or bad thing

This made me laugh harder than any other post I've ever seen on here. Thank you for that.

This is the funniest flipping post! My girl is sleeping so I’m over here shaking so I don’t wake her up.

 

[sinmyp1]

We don't shoot free throws because we rarely attack the rim. Wisconsin is getting to the line because of dribble drive and second chance rebounds, where we have to take the foul or give up a layup.

I think Wisconsin has had more team fouls on them, but Illinois' fouls are on shot contests at the rim.

A few ticky tack calls on both ends, but overall well called.

We attack the rim all the time, Kofi literally gets fouled on almost every shot, they just don't call it, meanwhile, breath kn Jonnie D and the wistle blows

 

[Whitmans Sampler]

Plummer has shown us solid slashing skills in previous games. Given how tight they’re guarding him, he’d benefit greatly from a pump fake & drive.

I love it! Roast me. So awesome. We Illini/ Marines are not known for our understanding of Humor. Unless we're in a combat zone and with other Jarheads. that's awesome thank you!
