Game Thread: Illinois vs Nicholls State

[ILLinoize92]

Are we about to become the 2019 Nebraska football of college basketball this year?

 

[KrushCow31]

Lol. Classic.

 

[BlabDunkAnd1]

Un friggin believable

 

[bombayIllini]

Downright scary. Halloween is gone.

 

[The Recruit]

Hmmmmmmm.....

"Maybe I should hold off on signing that LOI"

 

[t7nich]

Hot garbage.

 

[BananaShampoo]

Are we a football school now?

 

[Calvin]

I'll take OT at this point

 

[bombayIllini]

Got to knock those FTs.

NOT a given

 

[JFGsCoffeeMug]

No problem. We just need to hit some free throws to tie this up!

 

[MA Illini]

stopped following on my phone when we were up by 20 . . . and now

 

[CogDog]

Wow. Time to man up and make a play. We’ve hyped these kids up too much for the record they had last year. Hopefully we pull this out and this first game serves as a slice of humble pie going forward.

Are we a football school now?

Not BB school.

Have a cold Miller.

 

[TheAngryBavarian]

Thank you Trent. For the love of God, don't lose this.

 

[CAIllini]

This is so depressing...and it must now mean football will lose the next 3.

[GallopingGhost]

Time for the best defensive set of the night.

 

[bombayIllini]

Does Trent have 2 points?

 

[breadman]

Also, Bulls now down 7 with 6 mins left.

 

[IlliniReb]

Does Trent have 2 points?

Yes

 

[JFGsCoffeeMug]

This is perfect. My nightmare is losing to Nicholls State on a last-second game winner. So that's still a possibility!

 

[Retro62]

Really? I’ve got to stress this much in game one?

 

[ChicagoIllini]

No matter what happens my expectations for this season are now drastically different then a few hours ago.

 

[BlabDunkAnd1]

At least there is orange spandex ... just sayin

 

[BananaShampoo]

Cool. Feeling really good about spending $100 on those GCU tickets about now.
