Week of 2/23 Games Thread

A Michigan State win is better for Illinois. Should we end up with five losses we want to be tied with Purdue, who we beat, for the fourth spot.

It’s a shame I can never root for Michigan state then

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

MSU's offense is a trainwreck when Fears is off the court.

 

[Uihoop2]

Did Loyer just hit some one in the package?

 

[EmeraldCityIllini]

MSU's offense is a trainwreck when Fears is off the court.

Or when they’re not in the bonus

 

[Uihoop2]

Wish Fears would have played like this against illini

 

[Turn N’ Burn]

Tom Izzo’s on court whining is the equivalent to Mick Cornin’s postgame press conferences. Childish and lacking accountability. A call has never gone his way. Always getting the short end of the stick. Poor Tommy

 

[casemeau]

Man, I really wish I didn’t have to hope Michigan St. wins this. Purdue has so much class, and Michigan St. is just the opposite.

 

[PleaseMakeABowlGame]

I’ll root for anybody, anytime as long as it helps Illinois.

 

[Piotyr]

There is no right answer, except for Illinois to win.

 

[Hoopster]

Apparently defense is optional tonight,

to me, essentially we need to lock up a 2 seed in NCAA tournament. I honestly don't care about big ten tourney seed. so I'm rooting a against Florida, Houston, Iowa State and any other potential 2 seeds... including Purdue. in the end I don't think it matter much...we win tomorrow we are pretty much guaranteed a 2 seed at worst and have a very small chance at a 1 seed in the ncaa. I think there is a gap between the 6 seeds and 7 seeds so that's why I prefer a 2 vs a 3 seed

 

[casemeau]

Yeah, the team I care about most is Illinois. So I’ll hold my nose and hope Michigan State wins.

 

[FloridaMan]

Purdue flopping again

Should get T'd for the dramatics

 

[FloridaMan]

Of course they get the call wrong on review

 

[Jimbo]

Karma?

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

Coen Carr is phenomenal I’m sorry….

 

[AnnaMay]

Coen Carr is phenomenal I’m sorry….

At dunking yes. Everything else is meh.

 

[EmeraldCityIllini]

There is no right answer, except for Illinois to win.

Which I guess would mean I’ll root for Purdue. If we win out, that means no help needed from Michigan.

 

[PleaseMakeABowlGame]

AWFUL missed layup by cooper.

 

[TheodoreRex]

I decided I'm not going to like Scott for MSU for the future games we play him.

 

[Oldskoolkoach]

If you go to Peacock HQ in a few years their will be a Fears and Smith bronze statue outaide with announcer slobber dripping off it.

 

[WhereDoWeStandWithStorr?]

Coen Carr is phenomenal I’m sorry….

I think his dunk against us was the best I’ve seen so far.

 

[BillyBob1]

Koehler with a very stupid shot on that 2nd 3. He would have made it against us.

 

[Jimbo]

Come on Sparty. This would put us in a much better spot for a 2nd or 3rd seed in the btt.

Wouldn’t it be the opposite? We want MSU to rack up another loss bc we have the tie breaker with Purdue
