Another Q1 opportunity here. Just keep stacking wins.
-
Hoping to catch the second half after one of the girls’ ball games. Only 3.5 point favorites. Gotta show up every game.
-
Oh shit I have the channel hell yeah
-
Somebody may want to actually guard Thornton...my god, he's good, but he isn't 16 pts outta 24 pts good so far, geesh, thought we brought in a defensive guru.
-
19 pts - 7 for 7 C'mon ILLINI
-

Oh shit so do I.

50% from three and perfection from the free shot line has helped us stave off the OSU Thorntons. For now.
-
Thornton can't do that for 40 minutes.

Same with our 3 point shooting. But we already knew that. ;D

I didn't want to say anything. 😂

11 1/2 to go and both teams in the bonus. Gonna be a long 11 1/2 minutes
-
Refs were starting to feel left out
-
19-20 damn good thing we were practicing
-
Best keep it up. Foulapalooza
-
Great hustle by Mirkovic
-
Tomi with 4 pts and 2 rebounds in 26 minutes?
-
45 fouls with 2 minutes to go…
-
Settled for a 3…

Nice road win. But why doesn’t Brad just tell the boys to win every game by 30 points? It’s a very underused strategy.
-
A good road win.
-
Looking good

Good one, Sven.

Thornton’s first half was giving me flashbacks to unconscious BP3 putting up 43 against ranked tOSU in the Hall years ago.

Good point. Unlike Michigan we get lazy when we could have all the points in the lane we could ever want and insist on taking threes.
-
O...H.... you lost....good ILLINI win, regardless of who scored/who didn't/we made FT and we didn't get homered by the refs....they should have swallowed the whistles a little though....man, F*&K peacock also

Now do the Broncos

Excellent job having to overcome Thornton going nuts in the first half and the ref ball in the 2nd half to grind out a Q1 road win.
Favorite stat tonight: 29/32 from the free shot line.
-
Always good to win on the road against a solid Big Ten team. We've got a solid 6 guys who can score double figures so we're not totally boned if Boswell or anyone else has a bad game.

Wagler’s the real deal…

Wagler’s the real deal…
For real. And we plucked him out of Kansas with zero resistance from Bill Self. In fact, I think our biggest competition for him was...Minnesota?

Minnesota was his only other D1 offer…

Postgame Wagler said his H.S. coach knew Underwood from his Kansas days, so probably when Underwood was at Kansas State.
Thanks, Shawnee Mission NW coach.

Good win, hated the ref ball in the second half made the game borderline unwatchable

Exactly. Stat sheet looked solid, especially the FTs.
