We have 3 7 footers that we're waiting on getting healthy, but for now it will be small ball. We'll probably loose some games until we can handle the bigs.

BTW: RIP Bobby Knight!

I got my Illini hoodie on today ! Should be a good game heard Marquette player may be out for game . We lost a player going red shirt . Good defensive player but needs work offensively . Dan

I was geared up as well.

We let the game get away from us ! Lost by 5 , same score as half time . Too many turnovers 7 by halftime and could not make easy baskets at the rim ! Didn’t score a point last three minutes of game . Will say Marquette is a well seasoned veteran team good reason why rated 4 in rankings . Dan

Larry, yall played a fantastic 1st half. 48 points against the #1 team in the Nation. I thought yall were gonna beat Kansas

Weirdly, we ran up a 14 point lead and then stopped doing the thing that got us there

Went ice cold. Big dude on KU unstoppable! Made for a very late night to have to get up at 4 a big W would have helped...

Yeah.....I vaguely remember another team that ran up a 14 point lead against the Jayhawks in the 1st half......the stakes were huge in that game....

Will it ever not hurt?

We came back after half time beating Valparaiso 87-64 . Coach Powell showed his four years as assistant coach at Gonzaga with uptempo game . We had no answer for Stafford first half but shut him down second half . This will be a team to watch in years to come . We had too many fouls first half and Hawkins was out with illness , and too many attempts at three pointers . Locker room at halftime was a little heated ! Dan

Carolina played the best basketball tonight, that I've saw them play since year before last
They really lit it up in the 1st half vs Tennessee
And went on to win 100-92
.....now I find myself watching Duke play Arkansas at Arkansas!
This SEC vs ACC is fascinating....I love it!
