Game Thread: Illinois vs Xavier

[Highlander]

Tre is having a really good game. Why is Ben taking so many of his minutes?

 

[IlliniFaninHoosierLand]

Only need 5 on the court ... It's all or nothing from here on out ...

 

[DeeIL89]

Tomi, KJ, Will, Kylan all in double figures. Lets Go! Foot on gas!

 

[Mr. Roberts]

Thought that last foul was on Ben. Oof.

 

[AirNeazy]

Riley will be an NBA All Star at some point in his career. Calling it now

 

[zentrails]

That's what 1st round picks look like ...

0% chance he comes back ...

I am more than good with that

 

[ugottabjoshinme]

Need Ivisic to be able to stay out there. Offense isn’t the same without him

 

[OrangeBlue98]

O Canada, indeed!

 

[zentrails]

Thought that last foul was on Ben. Oof.

Me, too, wish they'd show the replay on that one

 

[UDillini]

Ben H could’ve gotten positively involved by yelling at refs with hands up asking for that foul instead of tomi

 

[DICKnaggie]

It's been such a pleasure seeing Will grow. Amazing. When he is gone I have a great wholesome story to tell about he and my in-laws.

 

[BrimfieldBomber]

Raftery wishes he was behind the table for this one...

 

[blife]

Bury them now. Let's not FAFO with a tight game

 

[so illini]

Our stars are shining tonight and KB is quietly controlling the game. Good job Illini!

 

[JJE]

Ben just played the best interior defense he could and he got owned

 

[BDMAN]

I just replayed that play that was a BS call Tomi 32 simply lost his balance going after the bad pass and faked the hold. Brad needs to give these Refs the business call it both ways

 

[illinidday89]

I want to play Kentucky so badly. Keep firing young fella!!

 

[zentrails]

Bury them now. Let's not FAFO with a tight game

Especially like TX did

 

[dainjazoner]

HOW IS BEN STILL IN THIS GAME. FOR 6 MINUTES STRAIGHT.

 

[BlabDunkAnd1]

BH = run killer

 

[robow7]

Ben's giving you nothing

 

[ILLfated]

Riley transforming mid game

 

[PopChampaign]

Ben over DGL is crazy

 

[skyIdub]

You can see the “want” in KJs game tonight

 

[AEX]

Where is Tre? Why the f is Ben still in?
