ILLINI vs UCLA Peacock -6.5

Hold Dailey and Johnson in check, we win going away. UCLA is a starter's only team for the most part. Create some T/O's, continue to drive the ball to get fouls and easy hoops, shoot the "right" amount of 3's for the win.

Illini 88 - UCLA 73
"We have a great bunch of outside shooters. Unfortunately, all our games are played indoors."

Last 5 minutes of the half were not great.

Just got done having dinner with the CRO of our company in downtown Indy. He’s a Duke grad and couldn’t care less that this dinner was intruding on the Illini game.  Now trying to find a bar that has Peacock to watch the second half and it isn’t going well. Might be watching it on my phone

Would be nice if we didn't keep leaving Bilodeau wide open.

Tomi really is the most important guy on our team it would seem. He's even our most reliable 3 point shooter.

16 point lead just a few minutes ago. Now it's clench time. FFS

A good win. Boswell was 8-8 and the team was 18-20 on free shots.
Next up is Sat at 7 vs MSU.

And saved the game for us with a clutch tap back on a missed FT in the closing seconds. You deserve a nice expensive dinner tonight, Tomislav.

Less than desirable finish aside, very nice win over a red hot UCLA team. Consecutive wins for the first time in just over a month.

2 separate dry spells to end the halves and 14 t/o. Should've won by 20 but we're still down a key guy and they both shot well and play solid pressure defense.

On another note, it was awesome seeing Mick Cronin lose his fucking mind.
