Game Thread: Illinois at Nebraska

I'd much prefer this MS over the one who ends up on the bench with 2 quick fouls. It'll come if he keeps playing aggressively, think UNLV.

I am all for it!!

Pretty ticky track foul on Finke there

 

[FeelYourPaign]

Loved that passing

True, but if he's going to play the baseline zone, he needs to close out better and take away that baseline.

Leron and Frazier

More Trent and Leron pick and roll to please

 

[FeelYourPaign]

Fairly dumb foul by Watson. Glad to put him on the bench with 2

And he stays on the floor

 

[t7nich]

Smith is good for a couple of those a game. Unfortunately

 

[GoIllini23]

Un-forced-errors...killing me smalls

For a team that hasn't won a game in conference to this point, it's an enjoyable brand of basketball. Good things are on the horizon!

 

[Gunner23]

Craziest thing so far? We actually lead by 2 after this start.

It just so happened to be when all the other teams are old and experienced. This bodes well for us going forward

Our defense is our calling card.

Frazier is a little velociraptor coming down the floor on the break.

[OrangeNBrood]
