Illini had an 18 point lead in the first half. Northwestern stormed back to cut it to 4. Now Ilinois up 7 with about 12 minutes to go. And Chris Collins looks ready to strangle Bo Boroski. Bo makes friends wherever he goes.

At that point, Illinois had outscored NW 78-22 since the start of the second half of their first game.

We’d be in meltdown mode here.

Dumbest post of the year award.

Did you watch the last NW game? We were up 14, NW cut it to 3 with 10 minutes left. We then won by 14.

Did you watch the first NW game? We were up 20 in first half they then got back in the game then down the stretch we were up 12 which they cut to 5. We then won by 8.

Instead of saying wow Rutgers does the same crap that illinois does and let’s people back into the game, Rutgers fans say Rutgers would have done something worst... doesn’t make sense. Seems like our fan base is looking for reasons to say we are a bad team.

Illinois has far better talent than Nebraska and Northwestern but they allowed both teams to get back in the games.The ability to put teams away from beginning to the end of games clearly is lacking .Too much parity and poor shooting is commonplace in college basketball.
