Thanks for that reminder! Happiest moment of my life as an Illini fan.

K Nunn may have put together some solid stat lines, but he has been off since he had his baby boy. A half of step slow, and making mental mistakes of a freshman. Can we get the man a nanny???
And that's not a knock on us. Iowa is damn good, I thought they would be a terrible matchup for us even earlier in the season when I expected to have our players back from injury.
Yep, they are a very experienced team and Uthoff is having a national POTY type season. I imagine Malcolm will try to guard him, but that's a really tough assignment. Gesell isn't a great PG, but he's pretty good and very aggressive, which again is not something we've defended very well.
Oh, and they rebound the ball really well and make nearly 40% of their 3s.
Gesell is very similar to Abrams IMO. I think lots of us, me included, took for granted what Tracy gave to the team. Sure we all want a Melo Trimble but after watching Starks, Tate, and Lewis I would take a Tracy Abrams any day. Hopefully he's back to normal next season but I'm not getting my hopes up.
There were fans earlier this year on here that were saying that Tate was as good as Gessel. Speak about drinking the kool aid.
First half - 2-7
Second half - 7-2.
One down 6 to go.
It can happen!!
Hope Iowa overlooks us, but if they don't, I see an ugly result. I'll say 80-62, but we make up about 8 points with their bench on the court in the last couple minutes.
,I like your optimism! :thumb:

Back in the day, on the now intolerable Scout board, there was a guy that always posted an aerial picture of Iowa's Kinnick stadium. There was a red arrow that pointed to somewhere around the 20 yard line on one end and it said "where I pooped" I guess he was there, was drunk late one night and he jumped a fence and left them a pile. Disgusting yeah, but hey, it's Iowa.
I know I said I wasn't going to go to anymore games, but I'll be at this one. Rutgers game really changed my opinion on watching the team. And like other people have said, only get to go to so many games as a student. Already had a bad week so might as well enjoy the game, have some fun.
