What’s our record the last 12 seasons or so. Ungood, I’ll bet. Time to turn that around.
-
6-6
1-4 the last 5
-
Big dick Brad has been owned by Mizzou. Time to turn that shit around. It's been embarrassing.
-
Up tempo predominant guard play from both squads.
This game will not be an easy one for the ILLINI, Missouri has a lot of experience as well, albeit their one PG looks like he goes to Dunkin Donuts every morning.
Prediction Illini 83-Missouri 74

Wrestling sucks now but I agree with the action displayed in this gif
-
6-6
1-4 the last 5
6-6 better than I thought. 1-4 slightly worse.
-
Pretty sure I was at the last game that we won. JFC we better win this one.
-
Missouri sucks and on paper we should kill them but every year you can throw that shit out for this game. Hope we're ready for a rock fight.

Need to kick their ass, no screwing around. Play smart.

Rule #76. No excuses, play like a champion.
-
We are very bad matchup for Missouri.
They are not good.
Unless they are hotter than hell from 3 and we can't hit shit and throw a lot of passes into the stands we should cruise.

I've seen this movie played out at HQ/HQ2 before....

So you're saying it might be a close game ? ;D

I remember when this was a marquee college matchup. What are we on this year, The Ocho?

Won’t be able to catch the game live tonight because I have to go to a Union dinner at The Ribeye in Champaign. Can’t pass up a free anything I want and not have to pay for type of meal! This information along with my subscription to the San Francisco Herald is some very damning information to my reputation…

Next time I come up to Washington to visit my mom, I’ll get ahold of you Jobu. Go grab a bite to eat or something.

Sounds good to me

Fuck no.
My FIL (RIP) was a UAW guy for like 30 years. They were all democrats. I think that’s where the bribes were going, so it was pretty much mandated that they vote democrat.

Illini down 13 in 1st half on BTN. 1988 Braggin' Rights game.

Time to get fired up!
-
Hope we actually show up to play this year
-
Didn’t they all go out and get drunk last year and stay out real late? Can’t imagine this group doing that.

It helps that the guy who (allegedly) orchestrated all of that isn’t here anymore.

I came to Springfield to watch this in Das Motherland they better win
-
Pretty uptempo pace in the early going. That favors us if we can keep it going.
-
Guerrier found his shot
-
This is nice to see. Everybody playing well in a no turnover game.
Ok, they have 1.
-
Grab em by the ears. They're used to it.
-
If Hawkins is going to hit threes, it'll be a great night for us.

Well, not if he's gonna jack up brain dead shots like that.

He plays like he's playing today, I cut him some slack.
But I did cringe on a couple.

Quincy on fiyah
-

I’ll allow this performance
-
This team is not as star-driven or spectacular as some teams as we’ve had in the past, but it seems like a well-constructed sound basketball team. Just imagine if we had a really good PG.
-
Goode with a grown ass man rebound
-
This team can play defense, and as we all know, defense travels.
-
Shannon on pace for 26 free shot attempts
-
It looks like Domask and Guerrier have brought a lot of IQ.
Mizzurah is 1-17 from 3.
We're shooting 50% and 37% from 3.
4 turnovers and outrebounding Mizzurah by 7.
-
Miznoz can catch fire in a hurry. Step on their fucking throats.
-
Illini are back
-
Ugh. Way too sloppy now. Clean it up and finish this
-
No foul? Jeez, Rogers butchered .
-
Ugh. Way too sloppy now. Clean it up and finish this
Yep, getting sloppy.
-
I think we're good now.
-
TSJ with the double double, 28 and 10, with 4 assists.
-
Are we looking at a spot in the top 10 after the Miznoz Massacre?
-
Gotta hand it to Hawkins on the pass back to TSJ flying down the lane. Could have been a hog, got himself an assist.
-
Pour it on these clowns.
-
Domask looks better shooting off the drive.
-
Empty the bench. Get Shannon the hell out of there. Don't need any major injuries in a game we've had well in hand from the jump.
-
Yes. He's good until izzo breaks his knee.
-
Pour it on these clowns.
Yeah, too bad that clown from East St. Louis still isn't their coach.
-
Yes. He's good until izzo breaks his knee.
Yeah, that Italian bitch is probably checking on whether Draymond Greene has any eligibility.
-
FDU next Friday and then Big10 play.
-
Best. Christmas. Present. Ever.
We were on a fucking mission from the opening tip. We totally dictated the pace and ran these fuckers out of the gym. What a breathtaking display of basketball put on by our kids.
-
Hope we actually show up to play this year
We did a lot better than show up. We killed their spirits from the opening tip.
-
It would be funny if Hawkins whipped it out and pissed on the McBride Homes Braggin' Rights trophy

Yes, so good to see. Gotta have this mindset .

We're now #8 in KenPom
-
Some friends that moved away were back in town for Christmas so we watched it at the neighborhood sports bar. Random dude at the next table saw my Illini q zip and chatted me up. Kentucky fan. He said number 0 is a hell of a player and we’ve got a damn good team.

The Daddy Brad moniker apparently made its way to Twitter

Great effort all the way around. !!!!!!

Great job with the free shots today. Good to see.

That's all you got? ;D You're normally a bit more critical.
Great win.

I-N-I!

LOL. It was terrible matchcup for Mizzou. They can't rebound. We rebound.
They rely on the three. We stay home pretty well on the three.
They are not good. We are pretty good.
Their only hope was their pressure would work and we we would be ice cold, and they would somehow be hot from three.
We executed well, rebounded, shot well and the ball movement was good by the whole team.
If we get scoring from people besides TSj we can be pretty good.
-
We are pretty good lol. You think.
-
We are pretty good lol. You think.
Based upon what we have seen in the BT so far we should finish second. We are ahead of MSU and OSU and Wisconsin. That should translate into a 3/4 seed depending on how many road wins we pick up.
If we develop consistent scoring options besides TSj, and split with Purdue and go 15-5 in BT we have chance at a 2 seed. It is very doable.
Should have good shot at a S16 no matter what. The defense and rebounding have become impressive.
TSj is having an amazing year. Keep it going.

Sounds like a veiled shot at last year's squad

Good. They deserved it…

Every Day No Knuckleheads :D :D

Good. They deserved it…
This year's group looks like they are having fun and enjoying each other's company out there. Last year's group treated the games like they were clocking into a shitty dead end 9-5 job.
-
They are working hard on defense as a unit.
Can take them a long way.
