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

[bdcolt45er]

Do you think the hip thrusts contributed to the travel.

 

[Hawksfor3]

Sandy is kryptonite!

 

[BigDogHawkFan]

Perkins is terrible tonight

 

[Carolina Hawk]

Not perk. He's struggling

Struggling is kind

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

He's HEATING UP.

And that was absolutely a 3 Bardo. STFU

 

[iahawks10]

Bardo can you just STFU

 

[TRHawkeye145]

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

I heard they give out participation trophies on senior night

 

[Hawkfan_08]

Why is Krikke in? Come on Fran.

 

[Buffalo43]

Krikke and perk let us down tonight so far

 

[QuadCityHawkeye1976]

Get your NIT tickets.

 

[HFan1981]

Why do we have to get Bardo every Illinois game. He's such a homer. Booooo this man

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

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

Perkins gone and PMac will return just to make sure nobody goes to the games next year.

 

[bogfeller]

Good call——Bardo STFU!!!!!

 

[Carolina Hawk]

Krikke and perk let us down tonight so far

All 3 seniors are just brutal

 

[HawkBall23]

Sandy making it respectable, but no hopes raised here.



(yet)

 

[markfromj]

He's HEATING UP.

And that was absolutely a 3 Bardo. STFU

As they cutaway for the commercial, I saw the foot that makes me wonder.

Krikke and perk let us down tonight so far

Krikke not athletic enough to play against Illinois. No idea why Fran keeps inserting him into the lineup Dembele is a better option.

 

[skydog0784]

I thought Payton's shot was initially a 2 but on the replay it looked like a 3 ball to me.

 

[Buffalo43]

Bad matchup for krikke all night

Play owen if you want to go for the win Fran

 

[jberesford]

Lol. First time bardo thinks there may have been a foul it was light contact on an Illinois guy. Then makes sure to say Sandforts 3 needs to be looked at 6 seconds later. Every time an Iowa guy got crushed it was just 'life in the big ten.'

Normally don't mind that guy but he shouldn't do Illinois games.

 

[binsfeldcyhawk2]

Bardo shouldn’t broadcast Illini games…his bias is annoying
😁

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

"from my vantage point that was a 2"

You wearing your Illinois gear again Bardo? Worst announcer for B1G games.

 

[MedHawkMedHawk]

What if Bardo and Gus Johnson did a game together? *shudder*

 

[ItsAllBallBearingsNowadays]

Perkins seems to always save his worst for the biggest games.

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

Either make sure you finish on your fastbreaks or settle the f*** down and run your offense.

Game never should have gotten back over 10 for Illinois.

 

[IllQChawk]

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

Blown away on how many layups he's missed this game.

 

[DirtyJohns97]

I heard they give out participation trophies on senior night

They give out free chips and salsa on señor night

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Why do we have to get Bardo every Illinois game. He's such a homer. Booooo this man

Even if he isn't being a homer when broadcasting Illinois games.... He's just BAD

 

[longliveCS40]

Every shot Perkins has taken tonight is off balance.

 

[IaHawks03]

Someone check Perkins fandual history

 

[Franisdaman]

Perkins is terrible tonight

1-9 FGs

in an 8 pt game

 

[LetsGoHawks83]

Why shoot that off balance shot Tony!?!?

 

[OutbackBowl2017]

Why is Krikke in? Come on Fran.

Need to play Freeman, Dix, Harding, Sandy, and Dembele.

Don’t wanna see PMac or Krikke the rest of the night.

 

[Rose bowl or bust]

Krikke should not be allowed to grow a beard if he's going to play so god damn soft

 

[MedHawkMedHawk]

Tony has killed momentum tonight every single time we've had it. Absolutely hate to see it given what he's meant to this team this year.

 

[LukaDuka]

Do seniors get to automatically play 30 minutes on senior night for fran? Where's FREEMAN???

 

[ClarindaA's]

In think it’s obvious…put Harding and freeman back in and bench Krikke and Perk

 

[QChawks]

Krikke done anything tonight?

 

[KcTo]

Frans 2 foul 1H jail has taken Perkins out of his game…
coaching blunder

 

[longliveCS40]

Why is Fran so stupid? Seriously. Playing Krikke? Stupid stupid stupid.
