Game Thread: Illinois vs Nebraska

[TCTORNADO]

Just a hustle play by MM

That CoHawk shot was such a line drive it almost looked to me to be a pass to the rim.

 

[azillini1]

Real hustle there by Mayer.

 

[Bigtex]

I think we forgot we play the Cuse. Maybe Brad will remind them at half time how to attack that zone with colmen flashing or MM flashing

Agree we get the ball to free throw line and throw it back out to 3 pt line.

 

[Dragons89]

Should have been a flagrant for the undercut on Grissel…sp on purpose.

 

[azillini1]

We need to play better of defense. NU shooting 52% so far.

 

[WeWillWhen]

TSJ's defense this game could be better.

 

[madillini4]

I think we win by 20 after half-time adjustments, but not pleased with that first half

 

[Bigtex]

We have to lead the country in air ball 3’s

Bump

 

[thehass]

pitiful.

Yeah. That was a pretty dirty play.

 

[TCTORNADO]

And to think last year we had the BIG's leading 3 pt shooter and 3 of the top 15.

Why is Shannon shooting so many threes. if any one is jacking them up I would rather have MM first.

 

[ChiTown]

Ugly first half.

Mayer and Epps are ok by me. Everyone else not so much

 

[blife]

Fugly first half. Epps having a rough game. Seems like Epps and RJ not dialed in on D and getting abused, if fact our team D seems BAD. Time to play some inspired ball.

Because he made one earlier in the game and he got carried away.

 

[Dragons89]

We have “elite” defense yet can’t get around screens and have not defended threes this game at all.

 

[Ignatius Shang]

Playing a team with Sam Hoiberg as a walk-on starting and we only lead by 1 at first half. Imagine we start Tyler Underwood...

Hard to believe

 

[RockfordIllini]

Most of their 3’s were contested. They hit some other tough shots as well. We settle down a bit on offense and keep doing what we are doing on defense we should be okay.

 

[Hope For The Best!!!]

Bruce is still going with the Crazy Professor hair!

 

[BBlock24]

defense was a little eh that half.

 

[Jimbo]

We have a half time lead. I am pleased. Just play even the second half we leave with a W, which is the goal. But have to play them even in the 2nd half.

Brad be kicking some cans
