We could be up more, but at least we're up.  I'll take that and THj with his mojo back, and Smotz & Vogrich contributing off the bench.

Yes, Illinois might be leading if you take away all their turnovers.  Insightful analysis.

It will be nice to get Morgan back but if he picks up his 3rd foul we should bench him the rest of the game. Can't risk having him foul out. He's too important to the team.

JB doesn't seem like the type to say anything derogatory about the other team either, so it's fine. It is nice. It's just weird that it's always us. Something to get used to.
