Post by: Custard on March 04, 2024, 11:19:49 PM
According to sources close to the situation who wish to remain unnamed, Illinois opens -2.5. 😲 Bunch of guys playing their final games at SFC.

They’ve owned us recently in both sports, but I think we break the skid and get a marquee win in a shootout. But it wouldn’t surprise me if we don’t.

LFG!!!!!!!

BTN had a choice to make. The rights to PU at Illinois in what may be a conference title matchup, or replays of Caitlin Clark ** games. They chose the Caitlin Clark ** replays. Lol

Current line -2.5 Illini   O/U 183.5

That's quite the large o/u line. I like our chances tonight.  We've got more than to play for than they do.

We need to hit our threes, get some fastbreak points, and hold our own on boards.

They need to not hit their average from three. Try and disrupt Smith a little bit.

Edey will get his. Shannon will get his.

We do not turnover people so that is a non factor and one way teams can be successful against them.

Can't have Hawkins or Dainja get into major early foul trouble inside guarding Edey. Not easy.

Will mostly come down to who is hitting perimeter shots and who executes at end.

Will be a battle. Great chance to get momentum heading into post season.

A good half. Guerrier with 10 and we're winning the boards. Cut the turnovers down, we've got 8.

On the bright side we are up 6 at half. On the down side we played really well, Purdue didn’t hit threes, and we are only up 6.

Tip of the cap to the Boilers. They made 8/10 from three in the 2nd half and that NBA dagger from Smith off the loose ball was lethal. They made enough shots down the stretch and we simply did not. It is what it is.

I work with a lot of Purdue grads and have a couple neighbors. The last couple of years have sucked in that regard. On the flip side it’s nice to be playing for something against a top 3 team in March. I have to hope this lights a fire under the staff. They can’t be happy being owned by Purdue.

Edey is a unique case. Normally a guy who's that big and dominant would have gotten pro money but the NBA needs different skills now. There's a lot of 7 footers who show up to college and very few of them, even highly ranked guys, play like Patrick Ewing for multiple years *and* have guards that can work an offense around that type of player at a top 10 level.

Also they'll lose in the Elite Eight and it's going to be mildly funny.
