I continue to be impressed with R J......

We are alright with the uphill struggle with the refs and shooting under par so far.....

We have hit a few shots and are now shooting 40%, about the same as Indiana. We need to get Kofi going in scoring and on the boards. We need to win the battle on the boards.

I remember about a month ago when we were one of the top rebounding teams in the country (#2 I believe). We are being out-rebounded 14 to 16 in this game. Since we won the battle of the boards by 11 against the Huskers, we have been lost the battle on the boards in most games: Michigan 32 vs ILL 33, Purdue 46 vs ILL 39, Maryland 33 vs ILL 30, Mich State 41 vs ILL 27, NW 30 vs ILL 36, Wisconsin 38 vs ILL 36.

Need to be better on the boards, especially with Indiana's foul trouble on their big boys.

This game has become a foulathon and we are not taking advantage. Couple that with missed points in the paint could spell curtains for us.

As someone who is highly reluctant to offer criticism of officiating, I will say that this crew simply does not know the rules of the game. Guys like this should not be calling games...anywhere...without being required to attend officiating boot camp for about a year or two!! Also grossly in need of vision update, or else they are making calls that on a game being played elsewhere.

Obnoxious calls/missed calls both ways. Big minutes from RJ on D. Missed a lot of bunnies....but down 2 with TJD on the bench for the entire first half.

Gonna be tense.
