*****Illinois vs Iowa Game Thread*****

[markfromj]

Iowa's defense always lets them down. Always.

Except in wins?

 

[BirdistheWord]

Dix and Sandfort have to get touches. I know Sandfort isn't shooting it great tonight but I think he could get it going.

He can’t start throwing up junk but we need him

 

[1inamillion]

cut it to single digits,

PMac shouldn't be playing at all.

Put caitlin in.

 

[denmar81]

I’ve been pretty easy on Pat throughout the year but he’s bringing nothing today and needs to sit with Perk on the end of the bench. Get Freeman back in the game and ride this rotation.

 

[TRHawkeye145]

Lame

 

[NevadaHawk]

Harding not so good without Freeman. Why is PMac playing for F's sake?

Coach's son.

 

[DewHawk]

Patrick needs to sit.


He brings nothing. No D and can’t score. Needs to sit.

add no hustle and rebounding

 

[markfromj]

Get it to 4 then clank pmac needs to sit

It was 6 then.

 

[Buffalo43]

Owen and harding dix payton and perk rest of the game

 

[longliveCS40]

The game is too important for the 2 foul Fran rule. You have to play Perk and Freeman. If they foul out, so be it. You aren't winning with PMac in the lineup.

 

[bdcolt45er]

Harding will have to develop some sort of scoring element at some point.

 

[ShonnDeereGreene]

Seniors are now 1 for 13….

 

[MedHawkMedHawk]

Dix and Sandfort have to get touches. I know Sandfort isn't shooting it great tonight but I think he could get it going.

Only takes Sandy a couple of shots to get going and the ones he's been taking (except the turnaround 3) have been good. PMac's +/- on the year has just got to be in Bakari Evelyn territory.

 

[Louis3Hawk]

Honestly pat and TonyP have really hurt us on their respective senior nights and it's real unfortunate. I think I've witnessed Perk miss more dunks than any other basketball player

 

[LukaDuka]

Dude you are so NOT objective - you don’t like the guy we get it

I object to you calling me not objective

 

[HawkBall23]

A Hawk win streak to make it on the NCAA bubble = The Roadrunner

The fans watching Iowa lay an egg in the biggest game of the season = Wile E. Coyote

 

[NI hawk]

Not much from Seniors tonight.

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Jump ball and Illinois throws 2 nasty elbows

 

[Jimmy McGill]

PMAC refuses to play defense....apple didn't fall far from the tree.

 

[Mitch122]

Phantom foul call when Shannon threw it out of bounds was the turning point.

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

I think he kept his pivot foot there...

 

[HawkBall23]

At this point, just start chucking after you cross halfcourt Sandy and Dix.

Can't get any worse.

 

[TRHawkeye145]

Should have known not to get my hopes up. I'll never learn

 

[Hawksfor3]

Oh No! Owen.

 

[denmar81]

Homer much Bardo

 

[OutbackBowl2017]

Fran has no clue on his rotations.

 

[NI hawk]

Harding will have to develop some sort of scoring element at some point.

He will. Not worried at all.

 

[Rose bowl or bust]

Good thing we got Harding back out after 2 minutes...wouldn't want to play the point guard that fueled a good offensive run in the first half.

 

[MedHawkMedHawk]

Man screw these refs too. The game's on 'us' but they're not helping.

 

[NevadaHawk]

We need Perk to find his game quick

 

[HawkBall23]

Perkins trying to 'out PMac' PMac tonight.


Not a good look, Tony.

 

[IowaMeatMan]

Well we at least made a game of it, regardless of the outcome.

 

[QChawks]

Perk going full Ronnie Harmon

 

[ClarindaA's]

Fran is such a dumb ****. Harding and Freeman together were killing it. Let’s not put them together again

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Are we running ANY kind of offense? One pass and one-on-one

 

[ShonnDeereGreene]

Trying to find the bright side in this complete clunker, and hopefully it’s that the Pmac era is officially over.

 

[Hawkfan_08]

Owen and harding dix payton and perk rest of the game

Not perk. He's struggling

 

[longliveCS40]

Sandy getting hot 🔥

 

[Franisdaman]

Lead down to 6!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

This undersized team really can suck when they want to......
