I am old enough to remember this from my youth.... lol
Illinois vs SIU Edwardsville, Friday, November 8th, 7:00pm CT, Peacock
As a SIUE alumni and I having attending plenty of games in the past 3-5 years this should be another Eastern Illinois. Biggest key is to stop Ray'Sean Taylor. He is easily their best offensive threat and can be hard to stop if his shot is falling. Luckily he is very inconsistent and can force things to make up for his teams lack of offense.
This years team has more size than usual but size is about it. The bigs don't have to much skill Ivisic and Morez should dominate.
Should be a comfortable win but need to do it on the defensive side first. Get stops and be physical early and they don't recover well.
This should translate all season long but we have more depth than 90% teams in the country and we need to take advantage of it. RUN RUN RUN. The faster we push the pace the quicker we can get these teams off of their game. Kylan needs to be the key in this in knowing when to push the ball and when to slow down and get an easy shot.

Kind of funny, somehow our stream was delayed by about 2.5 minutes (game minutes) last night. No idea if this was Peacock or something Mrs. Battle89 did (we were casting to our TV from her phone). Might have happened at the half when she checked other channels.
I had no idea, even as I am also commenting in the game thread. Didn't figure it out until one poster commented (for the benefit of those not watching) the exact score and time remaining. I'm looking at my phone, looking at my TV, and thinking these things don't match up.
Anyway, I turn to my wife and say "I think we're about two minutes behind for some reason, and apparently Riley is about to go off like a rocket".
Ok, I think we're treading on thin ice here. This was absolutely on Peacock. It was most generous of Mrs. to allow you to use her phone.

The group must really hate Peacock considering it's getting the blame for a game that was on B1G+.
