Week of 1/5 Games Thread

[Oracle21]

Michigan had a bad week with the PSU game and this game. Certainly a much lower level than they’ve played at for most of the year.

PSU beat them on the boards and WI was close (25-27) while shooting 50/45 with 15-29 on 3s. They been super elite due to their rebounding/defense and this week it wasn’t.

I think Rutgers goes 1-19. Sorry, they're really bad. Penn State to me has some talent, especially when they get Mingo back.

Not sure what my post had to do with Rutgers but cool

Texas winning at Bama would be an interesting result

He didn’t mention Rutgers…?

Around 13:50 mark: yeah, that is absolutely not a foul lol. I couldn't find the replay shown on broadcast, but Cadeau didn't touch him. Honestly crazier to me that's what Wisconsin comes up with out of a timeout??

In the lost art of calling the travel; just how much shuffling and feet movement do they allow receiving a pass to set yourself. At the 3:54 point in the 2nd half Blackwell takes a pass up at the top near mid court and just backsteps and shuffles like he's dancing.

Rutgers just takes so many of those bad 2pt shots. Brad loves forcing them, they love taking them.

People like to debate whether or not Brad’s actually a good offensive coach or if he’s just had good players.

But this chart is pure coaching and offensive discipline:

There’s just no way Rutgers wins that game with a chart like that.

This today was not bad either (though Iowa not nearly as undisciplined):

You can see the one obvious deep 2 / bad shot: KB’s baseline fadeaway jumper

Yup, I was saying during the game that it was two very efficient offenses. Different styles, but both built to maximize PPP.

 

[EmeraldCityIllini]

I guess we probably want NW to pull this out. Keep that game in NW a quad 1 game

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

The talent on the court between this game and the Illinois-Iowa game is just so night and day lol.

Francis and Martinelli are both one man teams.

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

Rutgers up 1 with 39 sec left.

EDIT: Martinelli bucket to put NW up 1.

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

Rutgers with a chance to win it. With the ball down 1 with 8 seconds.

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

Overtime!

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

CRAZY finish. Martinelli misses a game tying FT.

Rutgers wins.

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

Was that a goaltend?

 

[illinoisfootball]

EIU over Tennessee St Saturday 74-70.
