Great ball movement, missed the wide open 3...

 

[QChawks]

AF struggling today

get him out

 

[Hawkedup]

Sorry, we need more from Alvaro. Like now

 

[Hawksfor3]

Unreal, these officials.

 

[Phat Stax]

Might have been too much to ask for 3 good Alvaro games in a row.

Ben and the not quite ready for primtetime players today

 

[HawkBall23]

UNFORCED TURNOVERS!!!

 

[QChawks]

slow down guys

so may dumb turnovers pushing it up the floor

 

[Mitch122_rivals]

Worst pass I’ve ever seen Bennett throw

 

[UIAlumFireFighter]

Maaan we are ALL perimeter offensively.

Go get some height, Ben.

 

[2D]

Struggling with their size. Can't get anything going in the paint.

AF struggling today

Coop was setting up for the 3

Rare bad pass by Stirtz

 

[herkhatescy2]

7-3 on fouls. Fugging ********.

 

[Iowameat]

Need to get an inside game going

 

[MAKhawks]

Nice wrapped arms by Illinois on that screen.

Fortunately they missed the 3

Three fouls for ILL through 16 minutes. I’ve counted twice as many push offs than fouls called against them.

 

[QChawks]

Cooper elbowed to face

no call

 

[stillh8unlv]

Not one to bïtch about refs, especially this early, but Got damn, they've sucked so far

 

[hawkeyewx]

These threes have to keep falling.

 

[Hawkedup]

Jesus. Great time to go cold.

 

[HawkBall23]

Officiating better even out in the 2nd half ....

calling a bunch of ticky tacks on Iowa and letting ILL be real rough

 

[MAKhawks]

Howard in is allowing ILL collapse on defense. They are leaving him so open every time.

 

[UIAlumFireFighter]

Need to get an inside game going

Don’t hold your breath.

 

[DuddyB]

Need the supporting cast to step up…

 

[WestCoastHawkI]

Might have been too much to ask for 3 good Alvaro games in a row.

we needed it all season and he was unable to deliver. Consistency is not there yet.

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Jesus. Great time to go cold.

Feels like we just need to get to half.
Fouls in favor of Illinois and they have momentum now

 

[HawkBall23]

Worst pass I’ve ever seen Bennett throw

Throwing that ball at Banks' lower shins in that position was a GUARANTEED turnover.

 

[HoggI74]

Missed 3 straight 3s since " Horngate..."

 

[QChawks]

Cooper and ALF just watching basketball

 

[maxpain]

Mirkovic having zero fouls is literally insane.

 

[NIhawk79]

AF struggling today

Certainly is

 

[Rambler Hawk]

Didn’t the brick 3 pointer attempt by Wagler hit the top of the backboard?

 

[NIhawk79]

Sorry, we need more from Alvaro. Like now

Just something right now.

 

[Hawklove]

Statistically, we are great except for rebounding. They are killing us on the board

JFC. You’re a moron. They’ve played well so far. Illinois is good. Gotta keep it close.

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Not enough of a break with the broken horn....

Gotta take this long TV breaks still.

Been a LONG few minutes. No flow to the game now.

Remember how fast the Nebraska game went?

 

[Hawksfor3]

Need to close the half out strong.

 

[Anychawk]

JFC. You’re a moron. They’ve played well so far. Illinois is good. Gotta keep it close.

You think the supporting cast has played well so far?
