So proud of these guys! Even getting screwed by the refs all game and almost a majority of these games, we still look good. If Gb can make some of those bunnies and Trent shoots more in rhythm we will be dangerous. The way damonte, kipper, Alan developing now late season... with Dre, ayo, and kofi being consistent - add GB and Trent to get going we are gonna go far!
Never easy!

Give me back my Afta, heh heh
Iowa is a team of thuggish complainers from the coach on down.
Also an ugly team.

Watch Fran's halftime interview then watch Underwood's. I love our coach!
I know we hate him. But man as a basketball player I have serious respect for Garza.

We need to stop playing a 30 second offensive possession starting at 4 mins left - completely took us out of our momentum. Yes, no stupid shots early in the clock (TF - I see you). Please, please, please - just keep the momentum - we let teams rest and we let up on D when we do that.

Glad to see Damonte score early.
We needed it then and we don't win this game without his complete performance tonight.

Could we PLEASE hit the front end of a 1&1? At least we didn't get the loss because of it today! Go ILLINI!

An unusually bad decision by Trent on the early three. Really have to understand the game situation there.
We did not play a perfect game and still won and should've won more easily. They had role players give more than usual and they still lost. I think we're the better team 7 times out of ten.

Yes, but at the next level - he's going to get his flailing arms ripped off and shoved down his throat. No way they put up with what he gets away with past college.
I about had a stroke when Trent took that 3 early in the clock I think after Ayos great save . I dont like missing FTs but if a mental mistake costs us that drives would have driven me nuts. 1 for 8 from three and taking that shot early in the clock i literally cussed at the screen when it left his hand!
No issues, which is good because we don't need any problems going into the B10 tourney
Ah younglings, I was like this in the 80's. My wife couldn't believe how hard my heart was pounding while watching the games.

Kipper was great tonight. Ayo is a SPECIAL player.
Have to give Garza's dad credit. After the game he gave Ayo a high-five as he went through the crowd. That was classy.
