ILLINI -13.5

USC hasn't shown they can beat anyone of substance, it won't happen today either.

KJ still uncertain for play today, won't matter, and probably better against this team for additional healing.

White will have another outstanding game...23-8 maybe even a double double
Ivisis should get back in the groove
Humrichous should be huge inside with Rez as well

Game will set up nicely for DGL, imo, look for another 12-15 game from him I think, maybe bigger with uncontested layups/drives which he loves to do.

ILLINI  win this easily with or without KJ 91-70 on cruise control, getting some bench guys more minutes.

The dreaded 11 AM start. We haven’t been too good with those lately.

They keep talking about USC and the 9:00am start time....hell it looks like the locals forgot to wake up...this timeout (alarm) clock will hopefully go off.

ILLINI need to drive the ball...start out beating up the defense, they are not deep/or well coached against pick and rolls/drives. Get those points then open it up with the 3's for a B1G win.

Outscored, out rebounded, out hustled and outplayed.

USC just happy no wild fires except their shooting

Shot selection not great. Boswell NBA 3's aren't it.

Played as poorly as possible so far, (based on season play) and we are there at the half...B1G 2nd half defensive and drives needed.

Liked that Johnson did not back off defensively there.

I am incensed about that so far...

Didn't play well and somehow have the lead with 38. 38 in the 1st half is fine. Giving up 36 is the problem.
