Wow, that was a lot closer than it should have been. Here are my takeaways:
- The Illini faithful traveled well and were loud!
- I feel it was a slight advantage to play in a Nebraska gym that we have played in before.
- I think TJ is gone if he is losing minutes to Higgs!
- Giorgi is back!
- Something seemed a bit off with Ayo's crossover today.
- Trent has got to figure out his shot. He even missed 2 straight free throws.
- Kofi played well but could have utilized his size and speed even more on the offensive end.
- We played a bit undisciplined up 11 with 5 minutes left. A lot of quick shots from the perimeter that I'm sure frustrated BU.
Bright on Creighton ... I have a good feeling! Go Illini!
My wife busted me watching the game and responded with, "You've got to be kidding, you have an illness!" But she went to Colorado St. so she just doesn't understand!
