Is it weird I’m more concerned about Ziegler than Knect? Knect is definitely a dude but I don’t think he’s gone up against anyone with TJ or Ty’s size, strength and athleticism. Not sure we have anyone who can stay in front of Ziegler.
Would be an ideal matchup for DGL if he was ready defensively because he has the quickness and still has size on Ziegler. Don’t think he is ready but maybe some time for the experience.Is it weird I’m more concerned about Ziegler than Knect?

Nice! Will be heading there as well!We’re headed for Knoxville for this one- so any local drinking and/or eating spots to hit would be appreciated. This team is easy to root for. As someone said earlier - we’re playing this one with house money.
I'm this greedy right now
We're officially out of the frying pan and into the fire. But hot patootie bless my soul, let's go in there like a bat out of hell and make our rock and roll dreams come true.If we're competitive I'll be okay with a Meatloaf. That said let's win the thing
The whole country of adults. HS bball players will be at practice, or in bed still at 11AM on a Saturday. Top 20 matchups should be between 3:00PM and 7:00PM.Also, how sweet would it be to get a primetime win on ESPN & then follow it up with roadkill on CBS? If we don't have peoples attention after this... by Saturday, we will. A Saturday morning game on CBS without football.... Whole country will be tuned in. TJ will be a household name... Go illini.
you took the words right out of my mouthStop right there!
Either way, it has been a successful trip. Rather have the win though.Kind of feels like a house money game.
He started their game against George Mason last night and had 10 points. He will probably be full strength Saturday.I feel knecht will play Saturday, but be slower moving and rusty. Of course we also said that about Tyler Kolek coming off an injury. He was ok
College hoops is just now getting warmed up. CBS starts slowly integrating the games between the college football season, then the NFL. Army vs Navy is still a marquee game for them and we're only in December for basketball. I'll take the CBS/National game at 11AM vs the 7PM Big Ten Network game 100 times out of 100.The whole country of adults. HS bball players will be at practice, or in bed still at 11AM on a Saturday.

I think we’ve got too much size/length for Ziegler. If he gets by Ty, we’ve still got Coleman and Quincy and Terrence around to help, and Ty has a shot at a chasedown block, too. Plus, who is the 5’10 kid guarding? Ty will put him in the basket.Would be an ideal matchup for DGL if he was ready defensively because he has the quickness and still has size on Ziegler.

Definitely recommend Stock & Barrel.We’re headed for Knoxville for this one- so any local drinking and/or eating spots to hit would be appreciated. This team is easy to root for. As someone said earlier - we’re playing this one with house money.
That was a double overtime game. I don't think it can be called a blowout. I believe it was also Super Bowl Sunday.Some games let you know that it is going to be a special season
1989 - Came roaring back to win Mizzou bragging rights game, blew out Georgia Tech with Dickie V in the house
2005 - Crushed #1 ranked Wake Forest (Chris Paul) in December, Beat Wisconsin at Madison breaking Badgers 38 game home winning streak
2020 - Beat Duke@ Cameron, Beat Michigan @ Ann Arbor without Ayo
2023/4 ? -
Yes it was. Definitely not a blow out. We had to come back from a double digit deficit in the 2nd half. It was the second time we played Georgia Tech that season which was weird. Also that is the game Kendall got hurt in.That was a double overtime game. I don't think it can be called a blowout. I believe it was also Super Bowl Sunday.
Moved to Knoxville 4 years ago. Market square is great. I’d also recommend Stock and Barrel for burgers and bourbon. If you’re a brunch person, check out Tupelo Honey or Ruby Sunshine. Also, Cruze farm for amazing ice cream.We’re headed for Knoxville for this one- so any local drinking and/or eating spots to hit would be appreciated. This team is easy to root for.
