Going to be on a flight for a much needed vacation during this game, so I am hoping it is a comfortable blowout again! Our flight is from 9:30 am to about 1:00 pm, so I might try to stream it ... but I have a feeling I will be totally and completely preoccupied with our 1-year old. :ROFLMAO:

As of now, this is one of two remaining potential losses that would ACTUALLY be considered "bad" for our resume (the other one being at Minnesota). Punch them in the mouth early, put on a show for the fans and don't let up!!

I kind of feel like having a 9am PDT start time on the second end of a midwest road trip for USC is kind of doing them dirty, but Illini still need to take care of business here.

We are going to need KJ next week. Two very important road games. MSU n Ind are playing good ball now. Win Saturday and sweep on the road we are on our way for the rest of the BT season. Beat USC.

Honestly win our next 4 and we’re likely tip toeing the 1/2 line for seeding. Minimum 4 seed

Maybe it evens out since we've often struggled with these early tip-offs in the past.

I'd be content with a split next week.
Agreed - two tough road games in hostile environments (but IU's is maybe hostile because they're ready to turn on Woodson :))

If Illinois wins both games on the road, I'm starting to have dreams of a Fiserv Forum / Lucas Oil Stadium tournament path dancing in my head . . .

Sleepers Media speculating KJ had some type of accident and hurt his hands. Supposedly there are photos online and his hands look like they have abrasions and cuts

If he's a GTD I'd probably just rest him so it doesn't get worse, even if it will decrease the odds of a win tomorrow. This team does have good depth in terms of its top 9 so you don't have to fret too much about distributing the minutes down line.
