The MsNo one in Mn was kind enough to ask if I was going to watch the Bears win or the Illini.

Started well, UW looked outta whack. ILLINI having some letdown after the B1G win.

2nd half, watch out for patented BU halftime a55 chewing pressure run to get up 20 right away.

ILLINI 95 - UW 75

good to see DGL playing with a smile!!

We're not handling the ball well or shooting 3's. Somehow it stays at 10 points.

As good as the other nights win was, this was a win, but ugly. BU shouldn't want a repeat other than a win the rest of the year. thank goodness we got away with this.

This was Northwestern with a bit of Tennessee sprinkled in, but we got the W. That's all that matters.

Gross. I never felt like the game was in doubt, was half ass paying attention, then all of a sudden it’s a 2 point game. Like No one in Mn said, why the fuck were we taking 3s? We could get whatever we wanted around the basket.

tPSU is in town Wed. 8pm on BTN. Time to end the 4 game losing streak.
They're 12-3 with home wins over PU and NU and had a 4 pt loss at Rutgers.

Good job everybody. A New Year's bowl win, a blowout at Oregon, Bears win and another hoops win at Washington.
Take a couple of days off.

I agree. We were eating them alive in the paint. Sure Ivisic's late 3 swirled in and out and maybe we aren't sweating it out as much if that goes down but I would have loved to see them attack the basket there. Live by the 3, (almost) die by the three....

I'm more disgusted that we failed to inbound the ball properly at a crucial point in the game yet again. What the fuck is so hard about inbounding the ball CLEANLY?

Yeah not sure what happened there. Try to tell myself this a whole new team still learning to play together.
