Reggie was a great player with a nice NBA career.

its kinda cool that the best Illini game thread is found on a Hawkeye board

admit it. we're #1.

 

[BubsFinn]

I have to say, as much as I want Illinois to lose for the sake of the Hawkeyes, seeing MSU melt down might almost be worth it.

Live look at their huddle:

 

[Rambler Hawk]

I will say this, Curbelo is lightning quick...

Normally, I would very likely agree. But despite the toughness and unlikelyhood of it happening - Hawks going 4-0 in its remaining games - the BTT 2-seed is still on the line for Iowa if MSU holds on tonight.

 

[flaiawis]

Illini making an art of complaining and whining. I think they need to concentrate more on playing basketball. Sparty living rent free in their heads all night long.

[DTP2]

How do you miss that right in front of you?

 

[BubsFinn]

Live look at their huddle:

Thank you for that.

 

[IlliniHoops91]

OMG, lol. The ball hit the official! First complaint of the night.

 

[Franisdaman]

goal tend on Cockburn? hmmmmmm

 

[iahawks10]

Officials in the B1G aren’t really known for their eyesight or judgment.

 

[HawkBall23]

Cockburn bulldozes Bingham, Bingham foul.

lol

 

[BlackNGoldBleeder]

OMG, lol. The ball hit the official! First complaint of the night.

B1G Ten officiating is terrible.

 

[Franisdaman]

OMG, lol. The ball hit the official! First complaint of the night.

there is a serious official problem from the HS level all the way to the college level

nobody wants to do it

lol

B1G Ten officiating is terrible.

 

[BubsFinn]

It has been said before, as a team, Illinois has the worst hair in the league.

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Hack a cock. 3-11 from FT

Might want to rebound MSU.

The NCAA makes enough money. They can hire officials full-time.

 

[BubsFinn]

Did they call a moving screen? Yep, they did and yep, it was.

 

[Hawksfor3]

What the hell's with these fouls??

 

[HFan1981]

I agree the refs are really bad. I wish they would call fouls for Garza like they are for Cockburn.

 

[HawkBall23]

Kithier is not bright.

That moving screen was about as subtle as a brick to the face.

 

[Franisdaman]

It has been said before, as a team, Illinois has the worst hair in the league.

yep

its pretty sad when Underwood has the best looking hair on the squad

 

[bansheexyz]

There was literally a media timeout right after that OOB call. It would take 5 seconds to have a booth official reverse a bad call like that.

 

[iahawks10]

Illini have made four more FTs than MSU has attempted.

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

I've never seen so many fouls called on MSU at home

 

[HawkRugged17]

 

[Franisdaman]

The NCAA makes enough money. They can hire officials full-time.

they are too cheap, unfortunately

meanwhile, coaches are way over paid

 

[BubsFinn]

12 point lead with 6 to play? Fran would have Bohannan dribble the ball down to 4 on the shot clock and then vomit something toward the rim.

 

[HawkBall23]

Hack a cock

Whoa, hey now.

What channel you watching??

 

[flaiawis]

Could have called a six second lane violation on Cockburn there.

 

[Rambler Hawk]

IL will need a comeback the likes of the IL/Zona United Center tourney game of years back...

 

[BubsFinn]

Cockburn spends a lot of time in the paint, doesn't he?

 

[Underscore2]

Cockburn only a soph. JFC. Hey some NBA team - anyone - snap him up now. Now please.

 

[MepoDawg#]

Anyone going to guard Curbelo? Also, how does Cockburn not foul?

 

[Hawksfor3]

C'mon Sparty. Please don't shit the bed. (Puking)

 

[Franisdaman]

Cockburn spends a lot of time in the paint, doesn't he?

shit, he is in their painting he is in there so long

 

[BubsFinn]

Is that another "basketball play" and not a flagrant foul?

 

[Underscore2]

Shit. Welcome to the MSU norm (D = brawl) Ayo .. hang in there.
