Let's see if that ladder works.
 
#3      
If the ladder doesn't motivate this team nothing will. SMH

I predict a very lackluster game with a combination of poor play and poor officiating.


Illini 65
Iowa 60
 
#4      
I predict that I will question why I didn't find anything better to do.

Self-deprecating humor/half-sarcasm aside, I think Jok v Hill could be really fun to watch. The real question is, is our supporting cast better than theirs? KenPom says we are a significantly better defense, and their offense is marginally better than ours. Can our defense actually be the difference in a game for us this year?

I'm going with having a game similar to the home UMich game. We looked as unbeatable as we can get.

The Over/Under for total points scored is 154

The line is Illinois favored by 5.

I can easily see this being a shoot out- Illinois should dominate Inside tonight- turnovers will be they key.

I like the Illini to win by double digits in this one (pile on the points late).

Iowa has FR playing everywhere and are brutal on the road. I think the Illini & the Hawk's only road win will be @ Rutgers. I do like Tyler Cook's toughness and think he will be very good as a jr/sr and was disappointed we missed out on him

15 minutes to tip off

OSU up by 4 over MINNY 3:30 tp play

So why not just post that pic of the dog in the burning building now and get it over with?
 
#15      
Wow, TJL gets a start. Wonder how the backup minutes will shake out? Feels like days of 0-3 mins of Tate are over (i.e. he'll be in 3-10 range, IMO)
 
#16      
I hope TJL goes off for 20 with 7-8 assists and takes the starting job for the rest of his career.
 
#17      
MINNY loses vs to Ohio State 4th straight loss for Minny
 
#23      
Lucas an assist, Black a rebound and JCL a 3 pointer. I like it.
