January 10, 201313 yr QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jan 9, 2013 -> 08:56 PM) Illinois turned on the AC and blew that pass into the stands. Nope, that's just Andre Ingram
January 10, 201313 yr QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jan 9, 2013 -> 08:48 PM) I looked it up, the ball going over the backboard is out of bounds. That is now three calls that the refs flat-out did not know it seems. I think once it actually goes backward (as this one obviously did), it's out of bounds. If it bounces straight up/comes back towards the hoop side of the glass, it's still in bounds.
January 10, 201313 yr Horrible last possession. Oh well, very lucky to be only down 4. Minnesota is on a whole other level than us.
January 10, 201313 yr Illini shooting terribly from 3 (3-15 so far) and Abrams missed most of the half, but the lead is only 4. Could be much worse.

Meh, Abrams played about 8 minutes, Paul was out for a 4-5 minute stretch when Illinois could have extended the lead, and the officials decided for the last 10 minutes to start calling fouls (Advantage Minnesota since they're more physical down low). All that and they're down 4. I'll take it.

All that and they're down 4. I'll take it. Illinois could definitely win this. But I think Minny is just that good. Much better than anyone we've played and that is saying something.
January 10, 201313 yr QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Jan 9, 2013 -> 09:04 PM) helps to have a 42 year old in your starting line up Jealousy rears its ugly head
January 10, 201313 yr Illinois needs to shoot better than 25% if they are going to win this game. Hire me, BTN.

January 10, 201313 yr No basketball team in history launches more stupid f***ing jumpers with WIDE OPEN driving lanes
January 10, 201313 yr I'm going to be optimistic and think we come out shooting lights out, get back to our averages and we win a 5 pt game.
January 10, 201313 yr QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Jan 9, 2013 -> 09:19 PM) Two bulls*** calls so far Surely you aren't talking about that last one by Abrams, are you?
January 10, 201313 yr QUOTE (Felix @ Jan 9, 2013 -> 09:19 PM) Surely you aren't talking about that last one by Abrams, are you? The out of control bailout call? Yes.
January 10, 201313 yr I'm a Gopher and Gopher fan, but damn those were a pair of stupid foul calls EDIT: Oh, at least it was a double foul on Mbakwe and Egwu. Still should have been a non-call. EDIT2: Also, the negativity in this thread is hilarious. This is FAR from over... Edited January 10, 201313 yr by Felix
