Game Thread Nebraska @ Illinois [5:30pm BTN]

Yeah PG is not his position. It simply doesn't suit him, and he appears uncomfortable playing in that role. We had PG who transferred in but he is suspended for gambling, while an alleged rapist can still play for Illinois. 🤷‍♂️

I'd rather see more Hoiberg tonight, honestly. Feel for Lawrence but man he's just been so poor.

Excellent point regarding Ulis and Shannon. Never thought of it like that.

Give em to Lloyd then, his legs are fresh, hasn't used em in 2 years.

Something off with Lloyd. Must either suck or have some personal issues. Doesnt even get in when we clear the bench

Pick your poison

1. Play JLaw, who can't shoot and is a walking turnover.
2. Play Sam, who is undersized and probably can't keep his defensive intensity for more than 20-25 minutes or
3. Run the offense through Mast/Williams/Tominaga which leads to over dribbling or lazy passes too often.

I was watching in and out of a church event.
Seems like Illinois got a shit ton of calls?

I know, but it's still nuts to me. Everyone seemed to think he was the best or the bunch and he can't even see the floor.

Forcing shots now

Here comes the second half collapase.

I love our "Give up either a layup or open three" defense.

 

[HuskerDocCo]

sure do love our boys! Win or lose

 

[stonesak]

I do love our shooting ability.

 

[stonesak]

Hawkins is the most punchable player on Illinois. And considering they have a rapist on the team that's saying something.

 

[stonesak]

Zone is useless. We can't rebound out of it.

 

[Goskers07]

We can't rebound for shit.

Fify

It certainly looks like he’s mouthy and a bit of a crybaby. He’s been fouled a couple of times and he comes up crying to the ref. Refs haven’t been very good all season I don’t know why he would expect any different tonight lol

 

[EwokRhuler]

Offense is flaccid....

 

[HCFord1]

We honestly should be getting killed right now. It’s a miracle this game is so close. Giving up height and athleticism at every position.

 

[Goskers07]

What an ugly game by both teams. So sloppy.

They both look exhausted right now

Terrible time to start missing three's. Need some Keisei magic.
