The stadium would be shocked to silence if Verhoeven took the hand off at the top of the key and drove the lane.

One team knows how to pass the ball around on offense. Come on, we did it earlier this year!

Wasn’t it like a couple of seasons ago we were up big at the half against these guys, Undie threw a fit that made his eyeballs almost pop out of his sockets, and we collapsed in the 2nd?

Buie is single handedly trying to lose the game for us.

Okay, that shot from Boo was out of control *and* early in the shot clock.

Even Tydus wants to watch Big Matt.

Here’s to a positive comment on the board - we’ve made a great run and are leading by 9!

Audige still out of the game after the TO. Opportunity for Berry to continue to step up here.

It’s notable that Barnhizer is getting these late minutes over Beran.

(Anybody remember that game 15 or so years ago when the JuiceCats lost to Illinois because they couldn’t break the press for the last four minutes? Me neither.)

At this point, Illini playing so aggressively, they’re fouling constantly. I think the refs are getting worn out.
