Just our luck the kitty kats are up to 9 losses in a row. How do they break that streak? Why, by playing us, of course. The gracious hosts that we are.

Thinking Tev is due for another 18 point game. Good guys 75-62

Maybe it's the KoolAid talking, but I think we come out fired up and blow them out. We win this game by 15+. Let's make a statement.

Illinois will win 82 - 63.

If they don't, I'll throw up the Friskies Whitefish and Sardines that I will have enjoyed for brunch.

Maybe my memory isn't all that great, but it seems to me that ever since we started calling the Hall the 'House of Paign', the program has steadily dropped in quality. I don't believe we were calling it that back in 2005. Somebody came up with that moniker the next year or two later. That's my recollection, anyway.

I am pretty sure I purchased this in 2005.
And it is certainly worth investigating the metrics on whether named the the Assembly Hall to the Farm Center is in any way related to the misfortune than has befallen us.

An additional thought... Northwestern is statistically the worst offensive team in the league and they their three point shooting is woeful. It will be interesting to see if we over-pressure and give them wide open driving lanes like we did against PSU which was disastrous. PSU has better ball handlers so NU might not be able to take advantage like PSU did. It will be interesting to watch.

We are due for a game where most things click. We will win by 13 or more.

I agree, it seems like a few games since we've shot well, and our big 3 haven't been cranking last couple games.

Lets get moving again. If we lose tomorrow may have to declare the season over.

GO ILLINI!

This is a revenge game. So, just win the gosh darn thing. I don't care what the score is, just get the W and move on to the next revenge game. Win that and move on to the final revenge game. Very simple strategy. And then, obviously, win the BTT.
