How Illinois unranked still?

 

well, if they don't win this game against a very very good team on the road, they still won't be.

jrue is not a name, it is an uncomfortable-to-pronounce sequence of letters.

Recency bias. Both losses were on Saturday. If we lost at Michigan on a Tuesday, then won at Purdue on a Saturday(rather than the other way around) we would be ranked.

It beats having a arena full of old people who sit and clap politely (i.e Assembly Hall in Bloomington when I was in school).

[Magnetic Curses]

see what i ean by "punch you in the face" on the boards?

Gus Johnson just had to deliver the news that Myles Brand has cancer. It's just not right watching him be solemn on purpose.

or having the front 10 rows reserved for alumni who never come to games (like at PSU)

yikes, good luck to him.

[Magnetic Curses]

what's going on? just give msu the ball.

 

wow.

[SouthSideRyan]

What the hell was that?

wow.

 

ha, monumental screw job against MSU there.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

ASU has cut the lead to 2 on UCLA in Pauley. 3 mins to play.

[SouthSideRyan]

I mean, Izzo didn't fight it too much(though he already burned a technical), but how could that call have made any sense??? I'm guessing it was a possession arrow thing?

 

Shockingly Doris Burke has no clue.

[Magnetic Curses]

let's just hope that the refs don't decide to even things out the rest of the way.

 

come on, rebound the ball.

[cubswin2009]

Refs trying to even this one up. ](*,)

[Magnetic Curses]

man, that was quick.

ALEX LEGION!!!

[treebird]

this legion guy is kinda cool.

[Magnetic Curses]

legion is deadly today. and he can get his shot off so quickly, wish he could do more than shoot, though.

He had a nice drive and assist down the baseline against Michigan.

[Magnetic Curses]

msu has guys who can take the ball to the hoop. it's going to be tough for a jumpshooting team to beat teams like this consistently.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Josh Shipp just committed about the dumbest late game foul this side of Arizona-UAB. Overtime coming.

[TruffleShuffle]

holy cross beat bucknell on the road. we've now proven that we're better than the three worst patriot league teams. go us!
