[Illini B-Ball Fan]

Look for Izzo to blow a gasket anytime now.

and SFC sounds like it did when it was called Assembly Hall! This crowd is going bananas

The Farm sounding like the Hall. I love it!

Black on the appease Izzo make up call

It's fun when basketball is fun. Haven't had a whole lot of this in a while...

 

[TownieMatt]

Illinois has gotten flagrants called for less. Penn state rings a bell.

Refs aren't brave enough to give that against an Izzo team.

This team is making my week with their effort. Keep it up fellas

Proud to be a fan, always. I've seen some really inspirational fight from this team and many others through my years following this program.

I didn't see that game. But most of our shots tonight have been good, clean looks.

I don't think JCL has taken an uncontested shot yet

Sooooo....call it by its real name: Assembly Hall it is.

Bingo

Izzo whines more than my son's entire preschool class

 

[LurkLongandProsper]

Do we have more than 5 FGA inside of the paint? Feels like we're just shooting endlessly from deep, hope it keeps up

They don't screen for him enough

[oldman]

Malcolm Hill is giving us a game to remember

Well played, sir!

Yeah, JCL goes through long cold spells because the only shots he gets are incredibly tough ones that nobody should really be taking

 

[skyIdub]

MAN I LOVE THIS D!!!

 

[Ulysses Everett McGill]

Malcolm playing like a man possessed

 

[Illini B-Ball Fan]

Good D!

 

[ejam21]

MH again on the defense

 

[oldman]

defense creating turnovers

 

[Ulysses Everett McGill]

Great switchback by Kipper

I do tend to agree that he takes too many contested shots. But aside from him, and even he has had a couple of good looks, there has been good patience. Running the offense through Morgan the last several games has made a world of difference.

Kipper Nicnols!!!

This team is improving a lot on D.
