Illinois Vs. Lil Bro Open Thread
Illinios up 8-2 early, would love to see Sparty upset at home by a floundering Illinois team.

Well the other team scores 14 straight points before you score any.
January 31st, 2013 at 8:31 PM ^
we hit a three to open up the Ohio State game before giving up 16 straight...
January 31st, 2013 at 8:19 PM ^
Who does Nate Stauskas play for?
January 31st, 2013 at 8:21 PM ^
They're basically a non-factor in the Big Ten race whereas MSU only has 2 losses so an Illinois W is obviously good for us
January 31st, 2013 at 8:26 PM ^
Thanks for the tip...
January 31st, 2013 at 8:26 PM ^
Illinois is terrible.
January 31st, 2013 at 8:27 PM ^
Giving up 22 points in 7 minutes should get you kicked out of this conference.
January 31st, 2013 at 9:19 PM ^
QUALIFIES you for the Big Ten, at least until recently.
January 31st, 2013 at 8:29 PM ^
January 31st, 2013 at 8:29 PM ^
and that's why you're Illinois.

Already in the bonus. B1G Home refs.
January 31st, 2013 at 8:41 PM ^
Egwu is awful.

LOL! Gary Harris is the best freshman in the Big Ten? GRIII is now getting top 10 consideration for the NBA draft, and is basically a concensus lottery pick.
I haven't once heard Gary Harris' name come up in any sort of NBA draft talk.
January 31st, 2013 at 8:50 PM ^
January 31st, 2013 at 8:53 PM ^
As much.
*consensus
January 31st, 2013 at 8:49 PM ^
What is Illinois's fascination with the pullup 18-footer? They keep taking them and missing badly.
January 31st, 2013 at 8:50 PM ^
January 31st, 2013 at 8:54 PM ^
I don't want to judge someone on their looks, but I have never seen someone with a constant brainless expression on their face like Valentine seems to have.
January 31st, 2013 at 8:55 PM ^
January 31st, 2013 at 8:52 PM ^
That Illinois player must have been head butting Valentines elbow.
January 31st, 2013 at 8:54 PM ^
13 fouls and counting for Illinois this half.
January 31st, 2013 at 8:55 PM ^
January 31st, 2013 at 8:56 PM ^
January 31st, 2013 at 8:58 PM ^
It won't be this bad. It'll be far worse.
January 31st, 2013 at 9:00 PM ^
Illinois does play stupid defense. You'd think they would change things up with the way the refs are calling it.
January 31st, 2013 at 8:58 PM ^
January 31st, 2013 at 8:58 PM ^
I wanted to chime in and say what a boring effing announcing crew this is......zzzzzzzzz

Well MSU can never complain they don't get the calls after this half of basketball...geez...
January 31st, 2013 at 9:04 PM ^
What a joke of a call.
January 31st, 2013 at 9:05 PM ^
Granted, Illinois has no one to blame but themselves for not showing up for the first 5-6 minutes of the second half - but they really are getting homered by the officials here.
January 31st, 2013 at 9:08 PM ^
24(!!!!!!!!!!!!) free throws in the second half alone...are you kidding me?
January 31st, 2013 at 9:09 PM ^
January 31st, 2013 at 9:13 PM ^
January 31st, 2013 at 9:20 PM ^
Shot attempts don't count when you're fouled, unless it goes in (and there's continuation).
January 31st, 2013 at 9:36 PM ^
January 31st, 2013 at 9:28 PM ^
When you commit 19 fouls and give up 53 points in one half, you aren't going to win the game.

MSU took 32 free throws in the 2nd Half. Thats 3 more than Michigan's highest total free throw attempts this year.
