January 12, 201313 yr QUOTE (Rex Hudler @ Jan 12, 2013 -> 01:39 PM) For those of you who may have forgotten or need some pointers, there is a free basketball clinic going on right now in Assembly Hall. Coverage on BTN. Great stat, first matchup of top 10 teams at Assembly since 2000.
January 12, 201313 yr We're a team picked to win the acc playing at home against duke without Ryan Kelly, storm the court wooooooo
January 12, 201313 yr I don't like how IU is trying to milk the shot clock every possession. That's not how you got this big lead. Playing to protect a lead often equals giving up said lead.

January 12, 201313 yr QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jan 12, 2013 -> 01:10 PM) Yet another thing on the list of items this team is going to learn before the big 10 season is over. They played way too conservatively in the 2nd half and it almost came back to bite them in the ass. Minny's pressure has been tough, but if you attack that pressure and score off of it, the pressure subsides. We've not attacked the basket. The first half was a thing of beauty, however.

January 12, 201313 yr Finally this super boring MINN-IU undercard is over,time for the exciting high scoring main event of ILL-WI.

If you're a good team you should never storm the court IMO. Just a compliment to the opponent.
January 12, 201313 yr I hate storming the court elitism. Fans should storm the court after beating Chicago State by 50. It's fun.

January 12, 201313 yr QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jan 12, 2013 -> 01:34 PM) Just compliments your opponent. Just as dumb as the overrated chant IMO. Yup, it essentially degrades your own team. That's why it's stupid.
January 12, 201313 yr That's what the Big 10 is supposed to be. When you hammer down on a team in the first half, that just means they're going to fight you even harder in the 2nd.
January 12, 201313 yr QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jan 12, 2013 -> 01:34 PM) Just compliments your opponent. Just as dumb as the overrated chant IMO. I was at the Stevenson vs Mundelein game last night. Stevenson was up 5 but their 5 student student section wasn't doing anything so Mundelein fans started the "We can't hear you" thing. The 5 students just pointed to the scoreboard. It was pretty funny.
January 12, 201313 yr QUOTE (Brian @ Jan 12, 2013 -> 01:34 PM) College students are so lame for wanting to have fun. Oh please, you know I'm the last person to say that to. QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Jan 12, 2013 -> 01:35 PM) Yup, it essentially degrades your own team. That's why it's stupid. Exactly. Anywho, good start Illinois...
January 12, 201313 yr QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jan 12, 2013 -> 01:37 PM) Anywho, good start Illinois... Wait, the game started? Someone should tell them pretty soon.
January 12, 201313 yr Does Langford have compromising pictures of Groce? Mike Shaw just got minutes over him.
January 12, 201313 yr Awful first half, but glad the Gophers at least showed up in the second half. Shame they didn't get the same calls Indiana did, but if we had showed up in the first half it wouldn't have been a problem. Still frustrating, but such is life for the road team in Big 10 play.
