Burn this Gametape NEGBANG
They just look tired.
Brad Underwood has Juwan Howard figured out. 0-3 against Illinois.
Troll.

I hope they end up matched up in the B1G Tournament, I want them to solve this before the Big Dance.
Not sure if tired is the right word, but they are showing zero effort tonight. And the announcers were right... Our bench has been silent all night, even after big plays.
Just gotta nut up, use this ass-whooping as motivation, and hang a couple Ls on Sparty. Go Blue.
They looked terrified to me. Too scared to play. What were they doing?
Fucking weird.
No excuses
How tired were the Ilini?
18-21 yr old athletes tired. Please.
Next time just say “Hey I’ve never played basketball competitively”
You clearly have no idea how locked in these kids need to be to perform at the level they have and it takes a toll physically and mentally no matter how old you are.
Anyone who wants to counter with “These kids play 5 AAU games a day” also is outing themselves on never witnessing an AAU tournament.
I could've swore we had a post just a couple days ago titled "GOAT MBB team" or some shit like that?
Getting smoked by over 20+ at home from a team missing one of their best players for a chance to seal the conference while cementing yourself as the possible #1 in the country... I don't know, friends.
When the dust clears, we're gonna be fine and I'd be shocked if we didn't take out some aggression on sparty but we can pump the brakes now and recalibrate a little before tournament time.
The way I saw it, everyone takes a beating sometimes - Goodfellas
Yeesh, shades of football 2018 vs OSU.
most random meme ever?
We deserve this BIG TIME. Fuck Michigan Twitter leading up to this game.
You ain't kidding. It was obnoxious.
Yes, it was Twitter's fault! Damn Twit-machine, anyway!
I agree with this. While not the reason even I thought our fans were obnoxious. Last i checked we hadn't won anything this season. Watch Sparty sucker punch us twice in a row.
Fuck this shit. Just a bad game. Happens at to the best of them.
I'm going to sign on to this, but only because I can't handle looking at it any other way.
Why so much slipping the last couple games.
TheCube is the biggest fucking idiot on this board. Stupid comment after stupid comment. It never ends.
We will still win the big ten with any win against State.
Not sure what that was tonight but let’s not do that again please. Thanks!
Hope they got that out of their system. Now it’s on to Sparty! Don’t let Illinois beat you twice!
Neg me - I was confident we would win. Put me in the corner in a dunce cap. I deserve to be punished.
Some days you're the dog. Some days you're the hydrant.
Let's lift up a leg on Sparty Thursday night.
Bad ideas:
- Putting a crown on Franz in the game preview.
- Dickinson getting a haircut.
- Playing an entire basketball game without boxing out.
Wish I could upvote this twice lol
I got a bad feeling from the moment I saw his haircut.
The no boxing-out part took a little longer to notice, but yeah, that too.
This was a shit sandwich from the concession stand at a shit circus in shitsville
Eeewwwwww, Jobs!!!
That was brutal. I couldn't watch after 47-31. Talk about no separation on offense. Is Illinois that quick or were we running in mud?
Hard to say. I didn't notice us running.
Good ol' Fashion ass whooping tonight. If there is any silver lining, maybe getting punked on your home floor will give this team the fire they need to sweep the MSU matchup.
Because make no mistake, Illinois stole Michigan's milk money tonight and let them know about it.
Straight up punked.
Lets see how Juwan coaches them up now. Big test for him to not let this fester. Scrap the film...on to State. Better to lose to these guys now and get our vengeance in Indy.......
Hard to say any loss is a good one but we may have been feeling ourselves a little bit. There has been so little resistance to the point we may have been on cruise control. Some weaknesses were identified and that can only help going into the tournament.
Simply looks like a mentally and physically fatigued basketball team. A lot of short shots, very low energy from the start, it's been tough last month. This will be a reset. They (players and coaches) will learn how to manage the stress of expectations and tight scheduling.
The "short shots" point hits the nail on the head. I lost count how many good looks hit the front of the rim. That screams fatigue.
If anything they need to watch this game tape over and over until they are so disgusted they figure out how to get better
Isn't torture outlawed by the Geneva Conventions or something?
Obviously not since I watched our football team last season
Team looked dead in the water from the drop. The worst thing might be the Brad Underwood is happy right now. You hate to see it
Who says there are no spectators allowed at Big Ten games?
Our entire team stood there and watched the whole thing.
This is the kind of game that Gonzaga will never face. Which is why they won't be playing basketball in April.
My eyes!
Bleach doesn't help. Don't make the same mistake as me...
Bleach in the eyes before the game would have helped.
So, pour it on rather than injecting?
Still have never heard of Illinois.
